The major objective of the proposed research project is to increase our understanding of childbearing motivation and its role in human reproduction. Specifically, the project aims to explore systematically how childbearing motivation is translated into behavior, and, ultimately, into fertility events such as birth. It also aims to explore how life events and changes effect individuals' strength of childbearing motivation. The proposed project represents the continuation of research already begun in which the husbands and wives of 201 married couples with no children and 200 with one child were initially interviewed in person and then reinterviewed by telephone one and two years later. At the end of these two years only 3% had been lost to follow-up. The proposed research has two stages. First, analysis of the longitudinal data already collected will be completed, using a theoretical framework developed by the principal investigator and a reliable, valid measure of childbearing motivation. Second, two additional telephone interviews will be conducted, extending the follow up period to 5 years. These additional data will allow the use of more powerful statistical techniques, namely survival analysis when childbearing motivations, desires, and intentions are used to predict outcomes of interest such as proceptive behavior, conceptions, and births, and hierarchical linear model analysis when the focus is on how background characteristics and life events produce changes in childbearing motivation over time.

拟议研究项目的主要目标是提高我们的 了解生育动机及其对人类的作用 生殖。 具体来说，该项目旨在系统地探索 生育动机如何转化为行为，并最终 生育事件，例如出生。 它还旨在探索生活如何 事件和变化影响个人的生育能力 动机。 拟议的项目代表了研究的继续 已经开始，201对已婚夫妇的丈夫和妻子 最初对 200 名儿童（其中一名儿童）进行了亲自访谈 然后一年和两年后通过电话重新采访。 在最后 这两年中只有 3% 失访。 拟议的 研究有两个阶段。一、纵向数据分析 收集的数据将使用由以下机构开发的理论框架完成： 主要研究者和可靠、有效的生育措施 动机。 其次，将进行两次额外的电话采访 进行，将随访期延长至 5 年。 这些额外的 数据将允许使用更强大的统计技术，即 生育动机、愿望和意图时的生存分析 用于预测感兴趣的结果，例如感知行为， 受孕、出生以及分层线性模型分析 重点是背景特征和生活事件如何产生 生育动机随时间的变化。
