Abstract

We seek to model the hazard of entry into marriage for a sample of women in Ireland born between 1950 and 1973. Motivated by the work of Blossfeld and Huinink (1991), we propose a nonlinear discrete-time hazard model, which estimates the risk period and allows the effect of covariates on both the scale of risk and the age of maximum risk to be investigated.
