Abstract

The article deals with statistics relating to the data on live-born children's fathers and whether the fathers are or are not listed on the statistical birth report if the child is born outside marriage. It evaluates the share of anonymous fathers out of total live births and live births outside marriage, depending on specific variables such as the age or educational attainment of women or the birth order of the child, and in relation to regional level (NUTS3).
