| Resumo: | With data collected in 1972 from a probability sample of 412 white Catholic women aged 20 through 44, four sets of variables were found significantly to differentiate rates of contraceptive nonconformity to the "Humanae Vitae" encyclical. While both age and parity relative to desired family size were highly associated with the dependent contraceptive behavior measure, the latter was the single most important predictor of contraceptive noncompliance. With parity relative to desired family size controlled, both religiosity and alienation also provided significant differentials in contraceptive conformity. These results were then discussed from the perspective of generational and historical changes. |
