Thanks to the efforts of Ryohei Mogi (Center for Demographic Studies, Barcelona), Judith Koops (Netherlands Interdisciplinary Demographic Institute), and Karolin Kubisch (Max Planck Institute for Demographic Research), a new file has been added to the Harmonized Histories dataset:
· Country: Spain
· Year of data collection: 2018
· N=17,175 (14,556 women and 2,619 men)
The Harmonized Histories is an international comparative dataset which focuses on fertility and partnership histories, but also captures information on the socio-economic status, place of residence, the childhood family, and other relevant demographics.

A significant decrease in short-term and long-term fertility plans occurred among young people aged 18-39 between 2020 and 2022, when the data collection of the first wave of the "Contemporary Czech Family" (Czech GGS-II) took place. In 2022, respondents indicated that they wanted to have a child in the next three years and in the more distant future less often than in 2020.
