Generation

Could this article point out that a cohort is more or less a synonym for a generation? Vorbee (talk) 15:49, 24 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Minor Additions

Hi, I have a couple of ideas I was thinking about contributing to this article. It would be great if anyone has any suggestions or comments. Thank you!

POSSIBLE CONTRIBUTIONS

Maybe I can find some information of the etymology of Cohort statistics

-I would also like to find some examples of cohort statics since there seems to be none there

-Maybe potentially add a recent cohort statistic as an example or an older one

-Also contribute to the definition of a cohort or add some imagery like graphs of data

Restructure of article scope

I have a suspicion that Wikipedia would be better if this page were rewritten at Age, period, and cohort effects in demography. If Wikipedia has separate articles on cohort approaches or period approaches, I expect these would be mostly about comparing and contrasting with each other, and thus would be better merged. Read some of the content in Cohort (statistics) § Further reading and let me know what you think. Daask (talk) 21:14, 13 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
