Predicting Mexican-American Family Planning Intentions
Stephen R. Jorgensen, Russell P. Adams, Predicting Mexican-American Family Planning Intentions: An Application and Test of a Social Psychological Model, Journal of Marriage and Family, Vol. 50, No. 1 (Feb., 1988), pp. 107-119
Family Planning Needs and Behavior of Mexican American Women
A random sample of Mexican American women and a sample of family planning health care professionals, both from two major southwestern cities in the United States, were compared in terms of their reports of birth control methods used, problems in obtaining family planning services, and values involved in making fertility-related decisions, within the Mexican American population. This comparison was made in order to assess the accuracy of family pl…

Beyond Adolescent Pregnancy Research Frontiers for Early Adolescent Sexuality
Sex Education for Early Adolescents
In two communities parents and adolescents (ages 12-14) were surveyed regarding their views on sex education. Both groups expressed strong support for parents as the primary sex educators of their children, with schools as an important assistant in this area, particularly on topics with medical or technical aspects. Parents and adolescents disagreed on whether they had discussed several topics and expressed different levels of comfort regarding s…

Problems of Prisoners' Families
This research examines the differential effects of imprisonment on the inmate's family-the hidden familial costs of imprisonment. Lengthy interviews were conducted with adult members of inmates' families in a sample drawn from a maximum security prison, and 46 of these are analyzed here. Problems with income, employment and child care were severe, pervasive, and subject to only minor changes over time. These affected spouses more than other famil…
Sex Education and the Reduction of Adolescent Pregnancies
Pregnancy risk is conceptualized as the frequency of unprotected sexual intercourse among adolescents, and therefore can be reduced only by reducing the frequency or likelihood of sexual activity or improving the effectiveness of contraceptive behavior among those who are sexually active. It is argued that formidable barriers continue to undermine the attempts of sex education programs' to reduce pregnancy risk among adolescents. Four barriers ar…

Dyadic and Social Network Influences on Adolescent Exposure to Pregnancy Risk
Stephen R. Jorgensen, Susan L. King, Barbara A. Torrey, Dyadic and Social Network Influences on Adolescent Exposure to Pregnancy Risk, Journal of Marriage and Family, Vol. 42, No. 1 (Feb., 1980), pp. 141-155
Correlates of Divorce Liberality
Current theorizing about causes qf the increasing rate of marital instability in the United States has pointed to increasingly liberal attitudes toward divorce as a key explanatory variable. This investigation attempted to identifj significant correlates of divorce liberality by testing a series of hypotheses derived from cognitive dissonance, social learning, and social exchange theories. Based on interviews of a sample qf 240 spouses (120 coupl…
Sociocultural Heterogamy, Dissensus, and Conflict in Marriage
Hypotheses relating differences in husband-wife backgrounds, or sociocultural heterogamy, to marital disagreement over role expectations, marital values, and marital conflict are empirically tested and found to be unsupported. Three alternative hypotheses are presented and tested in an attempt to shed light on the general lack of association between heterogamy and the dissensus-conflict variables, including a developmental extension of heterogamy…
Socioeconomic Rewards and Perceived Marital Quality
A review of research literature bearing on the empirical generalization that socioeconomic rewards in marriage, such as income, education, and occupational prestige, are positively and linearly associated with faivorable marital outcomes, yielded inconsistent results. Earlier studies from the 1950s and 1960s have generally supported this proposition, whereas more recent analyses qf higher methodological quality have not. Drawing upon a sample of …
Social Class Heterogamy, Status Striving, and Perceptions of Marital Conflict
A literature search by Glenn et al. (1974) revealed highly inconsistent findings regarding the hypothesis that social class heterogamy, or marrying someone of a higher or lower social class background, leads to marital incompatibility and divorce. Their report is noteworthy because this hypothesis was shown to be a textbook generalization in functional marriage textbooks. Pearlin (1975) attempted to explain the inconsistency by showing that one t…
