本研究报告的调查结果，从三组黑人青少年：生育者（n=136），终止者（n=92），避孕者（从未怀孕，n=151）。本研究的重点是描述这三组青少年之间的差异，试图找出最能区分这三组青少年的因素。研究结果表明，在怀孕的青少年中，使用避孕药具的动机可能是关键因素。超过86%的青少年在怀孕时知道避孕药具，近四分之三的人知道在哪里可以获得避孕药具。然而，只有16%的怀孕青少年在怀孕时使用避孕药。关于避孕药具的供应和使用方式的教育至关重要。
This study reports findings from interviews with three groups of black teenagers: child bearers (n=136), terminators (n=92), and contraceptors (never been pregnant,n=151). The focus of this research is to describe the differences between these three groups of teenagers in an attempt to identify factors that may best differentiate the groups. The findings suggest that, among the teens who became pregnant, motivation to use contraceptives may be the key factor. More than 86% of these teens knew about contraceptives at the time they became pregnant and nearly three-quarters knew where to obtain contraceptives. However, only 16% of teens who became pregnant reported to be using a contraceptive at the time they became pregnant. Education about the availability and mode of contraceptive use is essential.
