我们在认知科学和社会科学的理论和研究的背景下，研究生育意愿的使用和价值。首先，我们利用最近的大脑和认知研究，在更广泛的有意识和无意识的机制，有助于心理功能的背景下生育意图。接下来，我们将这项研究与社会理论相结合。我们的概念化表明，人们不一定有生育意愿;他们只有在特定情况下才会形成生育意愿。意图的形成依赖于当前的情境，以及通过先前的经验所学到的关于生育和为人父母的图式，这些图式受到情感的影响，并由自我表征组织起来。使用这种概念化，我们审查显然不一致的知识的价值生育意图预测生育。我们的分析扩展和深化了现有的解释弱预测有效性的生育意图在个人层面上，并提供了一个社会认知解释为什么意图预测以及他们这样做。当关注意图在总体水平上的预测能力时，我们的概念化使我们首先关注社会结构如何阻碍或促进意图，以及结构环境如何有助于形成报告的意图。我们的分析表明，现有的生育意愿的措施是有用的，但在不同程度上，在许多情况下，尽管他们未能捕捉到他们试图衡量。
We examine the use and value of fertility intentions against the backdrop of theory and research in the cognitive and social sciences. First, we draw on recent brain and cognition research to contextualize fertility intentions within a broader set of conscious and unconscious mechanisms that contribute to mental function. Next, we integrate this research with social theory. Our conceptualizations suggest that people do not necessarily have fertility intentions; they form them only when prompted by specific situations. Intention formation draws on the current situation and on schemas of childbearing and parenthood learned through previous experience, imbued by affect, and organized by self-representation. Using this conceptualization, we review apparently discordant knowledge about the value of fertility intentions in predicting fertility. Our analysis extends and deepens existing explanations for the weak predictive validity of fertility intentions at the individual level and provides a social-cognitive explanation for why intentions predict as well as they do. When focusing on the predictive power of intentions at the aggregate level, our conceptualizations lead us to focus on how social structures frustrate or facilitate intentions and how the structural environment contributes to the formation of reported intentions in the first place. Our analysis suggests that existing measures of fertility intentions are useful but to varying extents and in many cases despite their failure to capture what they seek to measure.
