Abstract: Work on this essay began in Manila at the University of the Philippines Population Institute and was completed at the East-West Population Institute in Honolulu.Much of the data processing was carried out in Manila under the direction of Ms. Nellie Mangubat.Subsequent data processing at the East-West Population Institute was performed by Carol Carlson and Judith Tom.We have drawn extensively from the published work of specialists in Philippine demography.In addition we have had access to unpublished data from the National Demographic Surveys of 1968 and 1973 as well as the 1970 Census of Population, the latter generously provided by Dr. Tito Mijares of the National Census and Statistics Office.Unpublished materials generated by Project PREPF (Population, Resources, Environment, and the Philippine Future) have also been valuable.We received helpfulxomments on a first draft,.particularlyfrom Lee-Jay Cho and Jay Palmore of the East-West Population Institute staff.Sandra Ward provided editorial supervision, while Lois Bender and Gregory Chu handled production and graphics, respectively.Financial support has come from the Agency for International Development through a grant to the East-West Population Institute.5 These surveys were directed to all segments of the population and looked into all of the major aspects of population change: fertility, mortality, and social and geographic mobility, among both married and unmarried adults.(See unpublished materials at the Population Institute, University of the Philippines; see also Flieger and Smith 1975.) 6.
