title: The influences of the Covid-19 lockdown on  migrant and native fertility intentions
ispublished: unpub

abstract: During the Covid-19 pandemic, the Norwegian government imposed a lockdown to prevent the 
spread of the disease. The long-term effects of the lockdown are widespread and largely 
unknown. Previous studies show that the most vulnerable citizens, a group which often
consists of migrants are likely to be hit first and hardest by the lockdown. Other studies showed 
that this impacts fertility intentions. This research asks the question of whether fertility
intentions are impacted by being a migrant or not during Covid-19 in Norway. To check if the 
Covid-19 lockdown had an impact on fertility, the Gender & Generation Survey from 2010 and 
2020 are used for comparability. Using a logistic regression model, no statistical significance 
was found that having an intention to have a child was impacted by migration status in both 
waves.
