Which one is not the method of estimation for fertility ?

  • A.Reverse Survival Method
  • B.Feeney Method
  • C.Rele's Method
  • D.Own Children Method

Answer: B

The key marks the Feeney method as the one that is not a method of estimating fertility. The reverse survival method estimates past fertility from the numbers of children in a census who have survived, together with life table survival ratios. Rele's method estimates fertility from the child woman ratio, and the own children method matches children to mothers in the same household to build up fertility by age of mother. These three are accepted fertility estimation techniques. The key places the Feeney method outside the list, so the answer is option B.
