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)

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 and let me know what you think. Daask (talk) 21:14, 13 November 2023 (UTC)
