The effect of reproductive intentions on subsequent fertility is evaluated for a group of low-parity, primarily rural, Korean women. These women were more successful in achieving wanted additional births than in avoiding unwanted births, both at the aggregate and individual level. Several models of fertility behavior are tested. Reproductive intentions and number of living sons are the best predictors of subsequent fertility, and their effects are mediated largely by their impact on induced abortion. Overall the effect of reproductive intentions on subsequent fertility among Korean women is very similar to findings reported for the United States and Taiwan.
对一组低生育次数、主要为农村地区的韩国女性，评估生育意愿对后续生育情况的影响。无论是总体层面还是个体层面，这些女性在实现想要的额外生育方面比避免意外生育更为成功。对几种生育行为模型进行了测试。生育意愿和存活儿子的数量是后续生育情况的最佳预测指标，其影响很大程度上是通过对人工流产的影响来介导的。总体而言，韩国女性的生育意愿对后续生育情况的影响与美国和台湾地区报告的研究结果非常相似。
