The proportion of medical abortions is also taken from SAE 2002.

Number of abortions per woman, by order and year

Note : For this graph we have adopted DREES estimates of the mean number of abortions per woman from 1991 on (Vilain, 2014). Based on the INED estimates (Table 1), the increase in repeat abortions is more regular over the period, and the levelling-off of second or higher abortions between 1985 and 1995 is less marked. The figures taken from notifications include elective and therapeutic abortions.

Note : The “2002” curve shows probability by age of having a first abortion in 2002, given that in that year there was practically no correlation with the number of previous abortions : in 2002 the curves of probability of repeat abortion by number of previous ones virtually coincided (Rossier et al., 2009).

Lexis diagram for the selection of women in the dataset, Italy, 2004-2007

Note : Arrows represent women who are considered only if they have been interviewed at least twice, in any two consecutive years between 2004 and 2007. Filled rectangles represent the interview periods. Note that, while interviews were spaced 12 months apart on average, they were not actually conducted at the beginning of each year. In this paper, however, for the sake of simplicity, fertility is imputed to the year of the interview : it is therefore convenient to imagine that women were interviewed on December 31. All women’s characteristics, including age, are observed and recorded at the beginning of each year, and, when subject to change, they are updated at every new round of the panel (i.e. they are time-varying).
