The children of mothers who said during the pregnancy that the child was not wanted were followed up to age of 16. The material is based on a 14 year follow-up of 96.5% of all the births in Northern Finland in 1966. Controls from the 1966 data are assigned to the unwanted children who are matched with them in sex, age and parity. The number of children and marital and social status of the mother were matched, also taking into account the change in these variables between 1966 and 1980. The differences between the unwanted and control children were not dramatic, but there was a consistent difference between the unwanted girls and their controls, especially in their relations with their fathers, the unwanted girls perceiving their fathers to have been more hostile, more inconsistent in educational practice and less positive. The unwanted girls were rated lower by their teachers in personal behaviour and their relationships with schoolmates. They were more often reluctant to go to school, wanting to leave at the earliest possible age. No such differences were noted between the unwanted and control boys.
那些母亲在孕期表示不想要的孩子，被随访至16岁。该研究材料基于对1966年芬兰北部所有出生人口中96.5%的人群进行的14年随访。从1966年的数据中选取对照，将其分配给在性别、年龄和胎次上与之匹配的非意愿生育儿童。同时考虑到1966年至1980年间这些变量的变化，对儿童数量以及母亲的婚姻和社会状况进行了匹配。非意愿生育儿童与对照儿童之间的差异并不显著，但非意愿生育的女孩与其对照之间存在持续差异，尤其是在她们与父亲的关系方面，非意愿生育的女孩认为她们的父亲更具敌意，在教育方式上更不一致且积极性更低。非意愿生育的女孩在个人行为以及与同学关系方面，被老师评价较低。她们更常不愿上学，想尽早离开学校。在非意愿生育的男孩和对照男孩之间未发现此类差异。
