On top of health and education outcomes, adult mortality can have significant effects on children by influencing demographic outcomes including the timing of marriage. The authors examine marriage outcomes for a sample of children interviewed in Tanzania in the early 1990s and re-interviewed in 2004. They find that while girls who became paternal orphans married at significantly younger ages, orphanhood had little effect on boys. On the other hand, non-parental deaths in the household affect the timing of marriage for boysCC BY 3.0 IGOADOLESCENTADOLESCENT MARRIED WOMENADULT MORTALITYAGE AT MARRIAGEAGE GROUPSAGE OF MARRIAGECENTER FOR POPULATIONCHILD FOSTERINGCHILD HEALTHCHILDHOODCONTRACTING AIDSCULTURAL CHANGEDEMOGRAPHIC IMPACTDEVELOPING COUNTRIESDISEASESDOMESTIC WORKLOADDOUBLE ORPHANDOUBLE ORPHANSEARLY MARRIAGEECONOMIC GROWTHEPIDEMICEXTENDED FAMILIESFAMILY FORMATIONFAMILY MEMBERSFAMILY PLANNINGFATHERSFEMALESFERTILITYFERTILITY PATTERNSFEWER CHILDRENFIRST MARRIAGEFOCUS GROUP DISCUSSIONSHEALTH RISKSHIVHOUSEHOLD COMPOSITIONHOUSEHOLD NUMBERHOUSEHOLD SIZEHUMAN CAPITALHUMAN DEVELOPMENTILLNESSIMPACT OF AIDSIMPACT ON CHILDRENIMPACT ON FERTILITYINFANTINFANT MORTALITYINFECTIONSLABOR SHORTAGESLIFE EXPECTANCYLIVES OF WOMENLOW-INCOME COUNTRIESMALE HEAD OF HOUSEHOLDMALE-HEADED HOUSEHOLDSMARITAL STATUSMIGRATIONMORTALITY DECLINEMOTHERMOTHERSOLDER CHILDRENORPHANORPHAN ESTIMATESORPHANHOODORPHANSPARENTAL DEATHPARENTSPATERNAL ORPHANPATERNAL ORPHANSPOLICY RESEARCHPOLICY RESEARCH DIVISIONPOLICY RESEARCH WORKING PAPERPOOR GIRLSPOPULATION COUNCILPOPULATION DIVISIONPOPULATION ESTIMATESPOPULATION RESEARCHPREGNANCYPRIMARY EDUCATIONPRIMARY SCHOOLINGPRIOR TO MARRIAGEPROGRESSQUALITY OF LIFERURAL DISTRICTSEXSEXUAL BEHAVIORSOCIAL AFFAIRSSUB-SAHARAN AFRICAVULNERABILITYWOMANYOUNG ADULTSYOUNG AGEYOUNG MENYOUNG PEOPLEYOUNG PERSONYOUNG WOMENYOUNGER MOTHERSWorld Bank10.1596/1813-9450-4139
