This paper uses tabulations of two questions included in the l97l and l973 interviews of the NLS of Young Women. Several factors believed to account for a decline in the level of birth expectations were examined: changes in work experience and work plans, concern for population growth, and increasing attitudes toward a non-family role for women.
