 ABSTRACT = {We apply aggregate demographic analysis and computer
             microsimulation to project the number of older Thais who will lose
             children to AIDS during their own lifetimes and to assess their
             involvement with ill children through caregiving and coresidence.
             Parental bereavements from AIDS are predicted to peak at around
             80,000 per year between 2003 and 2007. Despite an HIV prevalence of
             only $2\%, 13\%$ of Thais who were over age 50 as of 1995 are
             likely to experience the loss of at least one adult child to AIDS,
             and $12\%$ of them will lose multiple children. The chance of
             losing an adult child during one's lifetime will be $70\%$ higher
             than if there were no AIDS epidemic. The impacts of the worldwide
             epidemic of HIV-AIDS extend far beyond the infected individuals
             themselves. Demographic disruptions, recognized early by Palloni
             and Lee (1992), loom ever larger. A host of emotional, economic,
             social, and physical strains on family members have been surveyed
             by Bloom and Godwin (1997), Bor and Elford (1994), and Patel
             (1995). Orphanhood and the plight of children whose parents are
             living with or dying of AIDS are attracting particular attention...},

Adjusting the census of 1990: Loss Functions

 ABSTRACT = {Considering the difficulties, the Census Bureau does a remarkably
             good job at counting people. This article discusses techniques for
             adjusting the census. If there is a large undercount, these
             techniques may be accurate enough for adjustment. With a small
             undercount, adjustment could easily degrade the accuracy of the
             data. The Bureau argued that errors in the census were more serious
             than errors in the proposed adjustment, using ``loss function
             analysis'' to balance the risks. This procedure turns out to depend
             on quite unreasonable assumptions. With other and more realistic
             assumptions, the balance favors the census. The story has a broader
             moral. Statistical models are often defended on grounds of
             robustness. However, internally generated measures of precision may
             be critical. If the model is at all complicated, these measures of
             precision may turn out to be driven by assumptions not data---the
             antithesis of robustness.},

 ABSTRACT = {This paper takes up two of the four main kinds of errors introduced
             by [census] adjustment. Correlation bias is the error that occurs
             because the post-enumeration survey (PES) tends to miss the same
             people as the census misses, leaving `unreached people' out of the
             adjusted figures. Failures of the synthetic assumption are errors
             that occur when people in the same population group living in
             different places have different true undercount rates, contrary to
             the homogeneity assumption built into the adjustment....These
             errors make it unlikely that the adjustment improves the population
             shares of states and local jurisdictions.},

 ABSTRACT = {Humans' protracted maturation before childbearing is an extreme
             example of a general characteristic of higher organisms: a positive
             lower bound on ages of procreation. The pre-procreative span, much
             discussed for its evolutionary and social ramifications, has
             consequences also for the mathematics of population renewal....This
             paper proves the presence of a pre-procreative span sufficient, in
             and of itself, to guarantee the existence condition for bifurcation
             for all models in one important class. The class includes the best-
             studied examples of age-specific systems with and without
             homeostatic feedback in purely discrete and in purely continuous
             formulations.},

  JOURNAL = {Demography},

 ABSTRACT = {Lee's...formal demographic feedback models summarize the
             implications for births and age-structure of neo-Malthusian
             theories of baby booms like those of Easterlin. For some parameter
             values, such models imply sustained cycles, so-called 'limit
             cycles', in births. Frauenthal and Swick have recently re-estimated
             a continuous-age version of Lee's Basic Cohort Model with U.S.
             series and, contrary to Lee's original findings, have been led with
             this model to the conclusion that 'limit cycle oscillations have
             been occurring in U.S. births.' This paper disputes this
             conclusion, ascribing it to an inconsistency in detrending
             procedures. Furthermore, it corrects Lee's original conclusion by
             showing that his alternative Period Labor-Force Feedback Model,
             estimated from U.S. series, leads to cycles of implausibly long
             period. This paper thus reopens the question of whether any
             feedback model could account for the observed cycles in U.S.
             births.},
