对非婚生育的态度进行分析的目的是记录美国态度的重组趋势，并记录态度的决定因素是否保持稳定。多变量分析的数据是从弗吉尼亚州苗条美国妇女民意调查在1974年，1979年，1985年和1989年进行的罗珀组织。全国有代表性的4 000名答卷人抽样（妇女被过度抽样）评估了对非婚生育的3种态度（同意不结婚生子的合法性、接受单身妇女抚养子女和接受自己的孩子在完成学业后在婚姻之外生育子女。控制变量为大学就读率、天主教信仰、就业状况、婚姻状况、种族、年龄和家中是否有孩子。调查结果表明，自1974年以来，男性和女性对非婚生育的容忍度都有所提高。43%的人同意1989年的观点，即成年人不结婚生子应该是法律的。越来越多的人接受自己的女儿在婚外生孩子;妇女对这一问题的态度翻了一番，而男子的态度则有所增加。黑人和白人都同意合法性项目，但黑人的同意从1985年至1989年下降，而白人的稳定。黑人的可接受程度高于白人。年龄数据表明，最年轻的年龄组有最宽容的意见
The aim of this analysis of attitudes toward nonmarital childbearing was to document trends in the restructuring of US attitudes and to document whether the determinants of attitudes have remained stable. Data for the multivariate analysis were obtained from the Virginia Slims American Womens Polls in 1974 1979 1985 and 1989 conducted by the Roper organization. The nationally representative sample of 4000 respondents (women were oversampled) assessed 3 attitudes on nonmarital childbearing (agreement with the legality of having children without getting married the acceptability of single women raising children and the acceptability of ones own child having a child outside marriage after finishing school. Control variables were college attendance Catholic affiliation employment status marital status race age and presence of children in the household. The findings indicate that there has been an increase in tolerance of nonmarital childbearing among both men and women since 1974. 43% agreed to 1989 that it should be legal for adults to have children without getting married. There was also a growing acceptance of ones own daughter having a child outside marriage; womens attitude on this item doubled while mens just increased. Both Blacks and Whites agreed with the legality item but the agreement of Blacks declined from 1985-89 while that of whites leveled off. Levels of acceptability were higher among Blacks than Whites. The age data suggest that the youngest age groups had the most tolerant opinions
