In: Journal of biosocial science: JBS, Band 11, Heft 3, S. 303-313

Abstract

SummaryThis article considers the birth control experience of 800 patients for abortion in the United States and makes comparison with British data. The results uncover some cultural factors associated with non-use of contraception. Some suggestions are made as to social changes that would be desirable to reduce the abortion rate.
