Methods: The study population consisted of pregnant women attending Odense University Hospital. They were categorized in two groups: women with induced abortion ( n= 373) and a reference group consisting of women with spontaneous abortion and antenatal care attendees ( n=2,176). The two groups were compared by use of a case-referent design. The variables studied comprise age, number of children, partner relationship, education, occupation, economical situation, and contraceptive use. Results: Being single, aged 15-24 or 35 and above, having either no children or two or more children, and the experience of contraceptive failure were parameters which were associated with the choice of induced abortion. Among married\/cohabiting women aged 20-39 with fewer than two children, being under education, unemployed, on leave, or willing to invest effort in obtaining a more satisfying job influenced the choice of induced abortion. Conclusions: To reduce the number of induced abortions, it should be recognized that many women both want to establish a family with the number of children they wish for and to have a satisfying job with influence and challenge.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1080\/14034940210134167","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2003,4,3]],"date-time":"2003-04-03T19:42:44Z","timestamp":1049398964000},"page":"293-299","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":13,"title":["Living conditions, contraceptive use and the choice of induced abortion among pregnant women in Denmark"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"30","author":[{"given":"Vibeke","family":"Rasch","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Public Health, University of Southern Denmark,"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Hanne","family":"Wielandt","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Odense University Hospital"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Lisbeth B.","family":"Knudsen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Danish Center for Demographic Research, University of Southern Denmark"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2002,10,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"atypb1","volume-title":"Vital statistics"},{"key":"atypb2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2105\/AJPH.90.9.1403"},{"key":"atypb3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0010-7824(97)00035-8"},{"key":"atypb4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1034\/j.1600-0412.2001.801111.x"},{"key":"atypb5","unstructured":"Act no. 350 of 13 June 1973 on pregnancy interruption."},{"key":"atypb6","volume-title":"Statistics on Contraception and Legally Induced Abortions in 1994 and 1995","author":"National Board of Health.","year":"1997"},{"key":"atypb7","volume-title":"Abortion: a choice","author":"Rasmussen NK","year":"1983"},{"key":"atypb8","volume-title":"Abort eller f\u00f8dsel","author":"Bertelsen O.","year":"1994"},{"key":"atypb9","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/140349489402200111"},{"key":"atypb10","first-page":"54","volume":"164","author":"Knudsen LB","year":"1997","journal-title":"Acta Obstet Gynecol Scand Suppl"},{"key":"atypb11","volume-title":"Different aspects of women's reproductive choices.
