Demographic models of mortality, nuptiality and fertility have revolutionised techniques of estimating demographic measures for developing countries, which do not have sufficiently accurate basic data from censuses, surveys and civil registration. Most people in these countries are unable to give ages correctly. As a detailed study of the Indian age returns has shown, they are highly distorted.
