Two factors which are said to increase the acceptability of family planning in a developing country are, firstly, the ready availability of the facilities and, secondly, the raising of the socio-economic level of the community. This survey reports the effects on family planning of increasing socio-economic status on the one hand, and of urbanisation without an associated increase in the socio-economic level on the other. It is concluded that, although socio-economic status has some effect on family planning, it has a greater effect on the survival rate of children. Urbanisation, however, with family planning facilities more readily available, exerts a stronger influence upon the acceptance of family planning than socio-economic status. |
