Hello, I am currently writing my thesis on the topic of population ageing and family support programs in South Korea and Japan. For the case of Japan I will utilize the Japanese National Fertility Surveys. Now, I am looking for surveys regarding fertility in Korea. Im interested in: - the reasons why the intended number of children might differ from that of the ideal number of children. What is affecting couples decision to post-pone/have fewer children? - child-rearing conditions - opinions on marriage without children, working-mothers. What is the ideal lifestyle of women and men? Does KOSIS conduct such a survey? So far I have only found statistics on projection data. [Edit: Does anyone know where can I access the National Survey on Marriage and Fertility Dynamics?] Any help would be greatly appreciated.
