最近对79个国家进行的一项调查显示，日本的生育知识水平低于任何其他发达国家。鉴于日本的生育率下降和生育知识的重要性，我们进行了一项在线调查，以检查生育知识和有效的公共教育的相关因素。我们研究了年龄在18-59岁之间的人，n = 4，328（“一般”组），以及试图怀孕至少六个月的人，18-50岁，n = 618（“特里尔”组）。使用日语版的13项卡迪夫生育知识量表（CFKS-J）评估生育知识。所有参与者都提供了社会人口和生育率信息。参与者还完成了14项健康素养量表和11项健康算术量表。我们询问了那些意识到与年龄相关的生育能力下降的参与者，他们是何时何地首次获得这一知识的。CFKS-J项目的平均回答正确率在特里尔组为53.1%，在一般组为44.4%（p < 0.001）。多变量线性回归模型显示，特里尔组的生育知识与健康素养和生育方面的既往医疗咨询有关。在普通组中，更多的生育知识与女性、年轻人、受过大学教育、目前正在尝试怀孕、不吸烟、家庭收入较高、健康素养较高和健康算术较高有关。在那些知道与年龄有关的生育率下降的人中，大约3%的人是“在学校”第一次得知这一事实，大约65%的人是“通过大众媒体”或“通过互联网”第一次得知这一事实。超过30%的受访者首次了解它“不到5年前”的调查。尽管自上一次研究以来，生育知识有所提高，可能是由于最近媒体对年龄相关不孕症的报道，但仍然很低。可能需要在学校和社区进行教育干预，以增加一般人口的生育知识，因为大多数人从大众媒体获得生育知识，而大众媒体往往提供扭曲和不准确的生育信息。
A recent survey of 79 countries showed that fertility knowledge was lower in Japan than in any other developed country. Given the fertility decline in Japan and the importance of fertility knowledge, we conducted an online survey to examine fertility knowledge and the related factors for effective public education. We studied people aged 18-59 years old, n = 4,328 (the “General” group), and also people who had been trying to conceive for at least six months, 18-50 years old, n = 618 (the “Triers” group). Fertility knowledge was assessed using the Japanese version of the 13-item Cardiff Fertility Knowledge Scale (CFKS-J). All participants provided socio-demographic and fertility information. Participants also completed a 14-item health literacy scale and an 11-item health numeracy scale. We asked participants who were aware of age-related decline in fertility when and where they first acquired that knowledge. The average percentages of CFKS-J items answered correctly were 53.1% in the Triers group and 44.4% in the General group (p < 0.001). Multivariate linear regression models showed in the Triers group greater fertility knowledge was associated with greater health literacy and prior medical consultation regarding their fertility. In the General group greater fertility knowledge was associated with being female, younger, university educated, currently trying to conceive, non-smoking, having higher household income, having higher health literacy and having higher health numeracy. Of those who were aware of the age-related decline in fertility, around 3% first learned the fact “at school”, and around 65% first learned it “through mass media” or “via the Internet”. More than 30% of the respondents first learned it “less than 5 years before” the survey. Although fertility knowledge had improved since a previous study, possibly due to recent media coverage of age-related infertility, it was still low. Educational interventions, both in schools and in the community, may be needed to increase fertility knowledge in the general population because most people obtain fertility knowledge from mass media, which has been shown to often present distorted and inaccurate fertility information.
