An analysis of family sex composition preferences as well as the relationship between actual family sex composition and desire for no additional children among a national sample of Filipino women is presented. An emphasis on balance or son-daughter equivalence is strongest in Metropolitan Manila. Son preference is highest in rural Mindanao and Sulu, primarily due to the concentration of Muslims in this section of the country and secondarily to its pioneer environment and the presumed utility of sons in such a milieu. The importance of eliciting sex composition preferences from both husbands and wives as well as distinguishing the "striking for a balance" from sex-linked preferences in future research is discussed.
本文对菲律宾全国范围内的女性样本进行了分析，研究家庭性别构成偏好，以及实际家庭性别构成与不再生育意愿之间的关系。在大马尼拉地区，对平衡或子女性别平等的重视最为强烈。棉兰老岛农村地区和苏禄群岛的男孩偏好最为明显，主要原因是该国这一地区穆斯林人口集中，其次是其开拓性环境以及在这种环境中儿子被认为具有的效用。文中讨论了在未来研究中从丈夫和妻子双方获取性别构成偏好，以及区分“追求平衡”与性别相关偏好的重要性。
