Reproductive Decision Making Among Zambian Couples: Agreement and ConflictWilson, Judy Fralick 05 1900 (has links)
Fertility studies have often focused on the behavioral and attitudinal attributes of women with regard to
fertility. Until recently, the role of men in fertility studies have often been ignored within much of the
literature concerning fertility decisions. The focus of this study will examine if differences exist between
husbands and wives with regard to the following four aspects of fertility decisions: spacing of children, methods of family planning, sex preference, and desired family size.
The data were collected from 125 households in Kitwe, Zambia. Identical questionnaires were submitted to the husbands and wives during separate interviews. Content analysis was used to analyze the data.
Overall, no significant differences exist among husbands and wives with regard to the four aspects of
fertility decisions being researched.
