註釋Abstract The duration of spells of lone motherhood has important consequences for the economic well being of the members of such families and the cost of social programs. [...] The duration of spells of lone motherhood has important consequences for the economic well being of the members of those families and the cost of social programs. [...] With such data, the multivariate coefficients reflect the impact of the independent variables on both the likelihood of starting a spell of lone motherhood (incidence) and the length of the spell (duration). [...] The likelihood of an exit in year 1 of the spell is 17%, leaving 83% of the original cohort surviving in the status of lone motherhood. [...] The remaining values in the final column represent the predicted probability of an exit assuming that the lone mother has the same characteristics as the omitted category save for the variable in that row.
