Which among the following measure was used by 'Rele' for fertility estimate ?

  • A.Reverse Survival Method
  • B.Child Woman Ratio
  • C.Parity Ratio Methods of Fertility
  • D.P/F Ratio

Answer: B

The official key names the child-woman ratio as the measure Rele used for his fertility estimates.

The child-woman ratio, the number of young children for every 1,000 women of childbearing age, is a census-based measure of fertility that needs no birth registration, which suited India. Rele used it in his work on estimating fertility from census data with stable population ideas.

The P/F ratio method is the work of William Brass, as the matching question on this paper shows. The reverse survival method and the parity ratio methods are other indirect techniques and are not the ones linked with Rele in the key.
