Papers collected here were first presented at the Committee on Population Workshop on Social Processes Underlying Fertility Change in Developing Countries, held in January 1998 in Washington, D.C. Contributors represent different social science disciplines that have given attention to diffusion processes, including sociology, anthropology, social and cognitive psychology, and communication sciences. Topics discussed include innovation-diffusion contributions to explanations of fertility decline, social interactions and fertility transitions, and mass media and fertility change. Annotation c.
