目的：探讨计划行为理论(TPB)在生育决策中的应用问题和关注事项。
方法：我们回顾了生育计划的基本结构、原则和适用于生育决策的假设。在其他问题中，我们认为态度、主观规范和控制感是决定生育孩子的先决条件；理解这些先决条件形成的预期价值模型；以及背景因素的作用，如机构政策、社会价值观和个人特征。我们使用一个跨国研究项目的结果来说明TPB的关键要素，并通过考虑TPB指导的生育研究的一些开放问题来结束。
结论：我们的结论是，TPB可以有效地用于促进我们对生育决定的理解。通过检查关于孩子的行为、规范和控制信念，我们可以确定影响这一决定的重要考虑因素。获得的信息还可以指导采取旨在鼓励(或不鼓励)夫妇生育更多孩子的政策或干预措施。
Objective: To discuss issues and concerns in the application of the theory of planned behavior (TPB) to the decision to have a child.
Methods: We review the basic structure of the TPB, its principles, and its assumptions as they apply to fertility decisions. Among other issues we consider attitudes, subjective norms, and perceptions of control as antecedents to the decision to have a child; the expectancy-value model for understanding the formation of these antecedents; and the role of background factors, such as institutional policies, societal values, and personal characteristics. We illustrate key elements of the TPB using results from a multinational research project and end by considering a number of open questions for TPB-guided fertility research.
Conclusions: We conclude that the TPB can usefully be employed to further our understanding of fertility decisions. By examining behavioral, normative, and control beliefs about having a child we can identify important considerations that influence this decision. The information obtained can also guide adoption of policies or interventions designed to encourage (or discourage) couples to have more children.
