PubHealth.info® (a subsidiary of PakMed) presents scientific information mainly based on abstracts of articles published on a variety of public health issues/topics, particularly encompassing population planning, disease prevention, maternal and child health, and communicable and non-communicable diseases (like HIV AIDS, malaria, etc) that are affecting a significant portion of population in developing and developed countries. Here you can find abstracts of articles published on a variety of public health topics under category "Contraception (Birth Control) and Family Planning". Contraception (birth control) is a regimen of one or more actions, devices, or medications followed in order to deliberately prevent or reduce the likelihood of a woman becoming pregnant or giving birth. Therefore contraception is the utilization of various and sundry surgical procedures, devices, practices, agents, or drugs with the intention of preventing conception or impregnation (pregnancy). Methods and intentions typically termed birth control may be considered a pivotal ingredient to family planning. Birth control is a controversial political and ethical issue in many cultures and religions, and although it is generally less controversial than abortion specifically.

ABSTRACT

The data on areal units and the multivariate analyses necessary to assess the effect of organized family planning

programs are discussed. For each county the number of women 15-49 by selected poverty intervals, race, marital

status, are broken out and fertility measure compute. From vital statistics the 1969 natality and mortality tapes will be

merged with the 1970 census county information. Other figures essential for calculation of reliable fertility rates for

subgroups, smaller counties, and such will be obtained. The analysis of program effects will follow rather detailed

analysis of the interrelationships that may affect fertility. Since it will be impossible to specify in advance the exact

statistical method for multivariate analysis without a clear idea of these relationships, this preliminary work must be

done before the main analysis can begin. (PubHealth.info Document ID: CONT7T 2574-06)
