Total fertility rate vs cohort fertility rate vs tempo-adjusted total fertility rate

Three measures of fertility rate are compared: the total fertility rate (a summary metric based on birth rates across different age groups of women in one particular year); the completed cohort fertility rate (the average number of children born to a woman by the end of her childbearing years); and the tempo-adjusted total fertility rate (which aims to adjust for changes in the timing of childbearing).
