新的全国家庭成长调查（NSFG）与以往的不同之处在于，它的样本量更大，对黑人女性的抽样精度更高，并且分两个周期进行，使数据收集更加紧密。之前的调查每 5 年进行一次。该调查的第一轮于 1973 年下半年完成，结果现已以微数据磁带形式提供给公众使用。结果于 1976 年 10 月开始公布。第二轮的结果预计将于 1977 年末开始公布。详细描述了本次生育率调查的方法。第一周期进一步记录了自 20 世纪 60 年代中期以来观察到的预期家庭规模的下降。母亲第一胎出生时的年龄与教育程度之间的负相关关系仍然很强，黑人母亲的期望仍然显着高于白人母亲。一个有趣的观察是，健康状况不佳或最后一个孩子健康状况不佳的女性生育能力较高，对家庭总体规模的期望也较高。需要对这一现象进行更多研究。避孕措施的使用持续增加，已婚妇女的使用率已接近 70%。排除没有意外怀孕风险的女性，89% 的女性采取了避孕措施。 1965 年至 1973 年间，避孕药的使用率从 15.3% 增加到 25.1%，宫内节育器的使用率从 0.7% 增加到 6.7%，绝育率从 7.8% 增加到 16.4%。在30岁以上的妻子中，绝育是迄今为止最流行的方法。黑人女性使用避孕措施的可能性较小，但在使用避孕措施的女性中，更多人使用了更有效的方法。黑人女性使用避孕药的比例为 56.5%，白人女性使用避孕药的比例为 44.9%。关于第一周期出生率的报告即将发布。
The new National Survey of Family Growth (NSFG) differs from the previous ones in that it has a larger sample size has greater sampling precision among black women and is being run in 2 cycles so that the data collection is closer together. The previous surveys have been run at 5-year intervals. Cycle 1 of this survey was completed during the latter half of 1973 and the results are now available on a microdata tape for public use. Publication of results began in October 1976. Results from Cycle 2 are expected to start appearing in late 1977. A detailed description of the methodology of this fertility survey is given. Cycle 1 further documents the decline in expected family size observed since the mid-1960s. The inverse association between age of mother at 1st birth and education remains strong and expectations of black mothers remain significantly higher than for white. An interesting observation is that women who are in poor health or whose last baby was in poor health have higher fertility and higher overall family size expectations. More study is needed on this phenomenum. Use of contraception continued to increase reaching almost 70% of married women. Excluding women not at risk of unplanned pregnancy 89% were contraceptors. Use of the pill increased from 15.3% to 25.1% of IUDs from .7% to 6.7% and sterilization from 7.8% to 16.4% between 1965-1973. Among wives over 30 sterilization was by far the most popular method. Black women were less likely to use contraception but among those who did use contraception more used the more effective methods. Use of the pill was 56.5% among black women and 44.9% among white. A report on the wantedness of births in Cycle 1 is forthcoming.
