“…The timeliness of the updating of the population register and the accuracy of the information determine the quality of the derived statistics. For a discussion on the potential of population registers for migration statistics (and other demographic statistics), see Poulain and Herm (2013). In addition to the registration data mentioned, other registration data are useful for migration statistics, for example, register of visa recipients and asylum seekers.…”

In Europe, the monitoring and management of migration flows are high on the political agenda. Evidence-based monitoring calls for adequate data, which do not exist. The sources of data on international migration differ significantly between countries in Europe and the initiatives to improve data collection and produce comparable data, including new legislation, did not yield the expected outcome. Scientists have developed statistical models that combine quantitative and qualitative data from different sources to derive at estimates of migration flows that account for differences in definition, undercoverage, undercount and other measurement problems. Official statisticians are reluctant to substitute estimates for measurements. This article reviews the progress made over the last decades and the challenges that remain. It concludes with several recommendations for better international migration data/estimates. They range from improved cooperation between actors to innovation in data collection and modelling.

“…Alternatively, population registers and administrative records can be used to examine order-specific components of migration change from a period perspective and there are recent examples of such data sets used to identify period trends in order-specific migration rates (Kulu, Lundholm, and Malmberg 2018). However, while population registers are an important source of demographic data in Europe (Poulain and Herm 2013), publicly available aggregate migration indicators are not disaggregated by move order, and access to individual-level data follows strict access protocols that limits its use.…”

Distinguishing tempo and ageing effects in migration

BACKGROUND Despite emerging evidence of a delay of migration to older ages, few studies have considered its impact on overall migration levels. OBJECTIVE This paper argues that there are two possible implications of delayed migration on overall migration levels: (1) a tempo effect leading to a temporary underestimation of the level of migration in the observed period data and (2) a migration ageing effect leading to a reduction of higher-order moves because the exposure to migration is shifted to older ages when the probability of moving is lower. METHODS Combining hypothetical scenarios with empirical evidence from a range of countries in Europe, North America, Australia, and China, the paper demonstrates the relevance of tempo and ageing effects to migration analysis and proposes a framework for conceptualising these processes. RESULTS Our analysis suggests that both tempo and ageing effects are likely to occur if the general trend is towards later ages at migration. We show, however, that all-move data such as those collected in censuses is not suitable to analyse tempo effects because changes in migration behaviour are order specific. Drawing on retrospective survey data, we show that in 25 of 26 European countries considered in this paper, individuals who are late in leaving the parental home are less likely to progress to the second move and, as a result, report a lower number of migrations in adulthood than early movers.

“…This data source has several advantages. The first is the high quality of the data it produces (Poulain and Herm 2013). The second is the long-term coverage and the annual frequency of the data.…”

BACKGROUND Previous studies have shown that nonmarital cohabitation is socially diffused. However, to our knowledge, no studies exist on spatial aspects of the diffusion. This article examines the spatial diffusion process of nonmarital cohabitation in Belgium. OBJECTIVE This study aims to answer the following questions: What is the spatial diffusion pattern of nonmarital cohabitation in Belgium? In which areas did nonmarital cohabitation increase first, and which areas are resistant to this demographic change? How has this diffusion taken place geographically?
