The pregnancy counseling group; an analysis of a sample of women served by Planned Parenthood Association, Portland, OregonLapham, Marcia Jean 01 June 1972 (has links)
In August of 1969 abortion became legal in Oregon. About a year later, in October of 1970, the Planned Parenthood Association in Portland began to offer pregnancy testing and counseling as part of their services. This is a new and separate program which is designed to help women find out if they are pregnant as early as possible (at low or no fee) and provide counseling on the problems connected with unwanted pregnancy. This study is based on a sample of women seeking pregnancy counseling at Planned Parenthood in Portland in the calendar year 1971. During that year about 1,230 pregnancy tests were done through the agency: of these, 549 were positive, and 681 were negative. From the 549 positive tests a 20% random sample was drawn by utilizing the terminal digits of 2 and 6 in the six digit clinic number assigned every patient. This sample numbered 113 cases: of these, l09 records were located. The present study is based on data from these 109 records. While the ultimate concern of this study, like that of other research on contraception and abortion, is to develop knowledge useful in reducing unwanted pregnancies, the immediate purpose is to provide Planned Parenthood Association in Portland with information about the new group that it is serving. The study tries to do this by: 1) Comparing this new group with presently available statistics on the total clinic population, 2) Analyzing the attributes of this special group of clients: the pregnancy counseling group, 3) Making recommendations to the agency on forms, procedures and recording which the researcher feels will improve the service to this group, and 4) Making suggestions as to further research that would develop additional information helpful in serving these clients. The major effort in this study is to display the information derived from the sample in a way which will be useful to both the agency and to others doing research in the field of contraception and abortion.

Family planning among mainland Puerto Ricans: an analysis of the decision-making process.Borras, Vickie A. 01 January 1981 (has links) (PDF)
In reading the literature on family planning among Puerto Ricans one is struck by the paucity of studies of the decisionmaking process behind the choices for controlling reproduction as well as by the almost exclusive focus on the lower end of the social class spectrum. Indeed, some of the more recent work to come out in this field has begun to point to this lacunae in our knowledge (Gonzalez, et al., 1980). This study proposes to begin to fill this gap by comparatively examining the multiple variables that play a role in the decisions made around family planning by mainland Puerto Ricans of both low and middle class backgrounds. Special emphasis will be given to sterilization, since it seems to be the most common contraceptive method of both island and mainland Puerto Ricans (Stycos, 1955; Scrimshaw et al., 1971).

Canada's first birth control clinic : the Birth Control Society of Hamilton, 1931-1940Annau, Catherine January 1992 (has links)
This thesis examines the formative years (1931-1940) of Canada's first birth control clinic, the Birth Control Society of Hamilton (BCSH). The focus of this work is to place the activities of the BCSH in an international and national context. Canada's first birth control clinic drew directly on the writings and experience of two well known birth control pioneers, the American Margaret Sanger and the English woman Marie Stopes. This reliance on foreign models demonstrates the enormous influence that the British and Americans had on the formation of Canadian social and medical institutions. This thesis also challenges the traditional perception of the BCSH as a low key and non-ideological endeavour. New historical evidence indicates that the BCSH shared in the eugenic ideology of other contemporary Canadian birth control organizations and was an active participant in the debates surrounding contraception and eugenics.
