Population Knowledge and Attitudes of Latin American Adolescents: Impact of Gender, Schooling, and Culture

J. Mayone Stycos

Cornell University

Several thousand students in each of three Latin American secondary schools completed questionnaires dealing with birth control and population. Sex, grade level, and country were among the more important characteristics affecting knowledge and attitude. However, desired family size was unaffected by years of schooling and is set at between two and three children by Grade 7. The impact of schooling was only partially accounted for by associated social and economic controls.
