  abstract = {{I} present a method for estimating indicators of gender bias in reproductive behaviour, using microdata based on the own-children method. {T}he method is first tested on a large sample from {I}ndia with both birth history and household records. {I} then apply the method to {G}eorgia, {I}ndonesia, and {V}ietnam. {M}y estimates demonstrate that the proportion of {G}eorgian couples expressing a preference for sons in their fertility behaviour closely corresponds to the proportion resorting to sex selection at high parities. {I} show how individual {I}ndonesian provinces provide examples of both son and daughter preference. {T}he method also allows me to date the onset of sex imbalances at birth in {V}ietnam. {T}he approach based on the own-children method therefore provides a unique tool for estimating the diversity and intensity of gender bias in reproductive behaviour.},
