Psychological factors that predict reaction to abortion. 1981

D T Moseley, and D R Follingstad, and H Harley, and R V Heckel

Investigated demographic and psychological factors related to positive or negative reactions to legal abortions performed during the first trimester of pregnancy in 62 females in an urban southern community. Results suggest that the social context and the degree of support from a series of significant persons rather than demographic variables were most predictive of a positive reaction.
