The text introduces basic concepts of cohort analysis - age, period and birth cohorts. The author shows the role of birth cohorts in explanation of social processes and deals with a cohort replacement as a matter of social change. From the methodology point of view the author presents the standard cohort table, introduces an identification problem and shows two ways how to solve it using the data on birth rates in the Czech Republic between 1948 and 2007. The first solution is presented for population data, the second one is presented for microdata in the form of a series of repeated cross-section sample surveys. The results of both analyses show, that identification of age, period and cohort effects is important for interpretation trends in birth rates in the Czech Republic between 1948 and 2007.

The research on social homogamy in marriages answers up to a certain point satisfactorily the questions about the nature of assorted mating. Nevertheless, these analyses are not able to examine the tie between partner choice and the preferences of marriage candidates. On one hand, there are the characteristics of the contracted marriages, indicating the results of the assorted mating process while on the other, there are the notions of ideal partner, which all of the marriage candidates more or less explicitly exercise while seeking in the marriage market. This paper has three aims. Firstly, it describes the partner choice preferences by the basic dimensions like the education, age, physical attractiveness and wealth of hypothetical 'ideal' partner. The second aim is to distinguish between the segments of population with different partner preferences and to find social determinants of these preferences. The third aim is to compare the preferences of divorced people with single population in order to contrast the first and repeated choices. To answer these questions theb authors use the data from Generations survey, conducted on general population of the Czech Republic, with the boost samples on divorced and younger people.
