In this commentary, we propose a working definition of person-centered measurement within the contraceptive field and describe how this definition can be applied to existing and novel contraceptive indicators. We argue that person-centered measures of contraception must both reflect an individual's self-identified values, needs, and/or preferences related to contraception and allow an individual to assess the extent to which these values, needs, and/or preferences have been fulfilled. As a result, a person-centered measure allows the individual to define for themselves whether a \"good\" outcome has been achieved. While person-centered measures are a critical component of measuring the performance of contraceptive programs, measurement frameworks must also include non-person-centered measures that allow evaluation of normative constructs such as human rights and reproductive justice.","PeriodicalId":22069,"journal":{"name":"Studies in Family Planning","volume":"45 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2025-06-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144370084","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study developed a multilevel quantitative measurement framework for RV comprised of indicators at the interpersonal, community, institutional, and law and policy levels. We conducted a systematized literature review, extracting and scoring existing indicators based on prior testing in a low‐ and middle‐income country setting, psychometric data, feasibility, and face validity. The literature review identified 84 peer‐reviewed studies, inclusive of 448 indicators that were extracted and scored. Ultimately, 112 indicators were included in the RV measurement framework. Indicators were organized by level of the social‐ecological model and across three categories: (1) pregnancy‐promoting RV, (2) pregnancy‐preventing RV, and (3) legal and social liabilities of pregnancy and parenthood. This study provides the first multilevel measurement framework for RV. Further research is needed to develop indicators for understudied RV constructs and validate the framework. The resulting framework will be used at the subnational, national, and regional levels to understand barriers to reproductive autonomy.","PeriodicalId":22069,"journal":{"name":"Studies in Family Planning","volume":"15 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2025-06-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144335050","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

On its own, discordant use is an important indicator of reproductive autonomy. It may also affect reproductive outcomes, although little research has explored the consequences of unsatisfied contraceptive preferences. Using prospective data for the two years following delivery for a cohort of low-income postpartum women in Texas, many of whom would have preferred to be using a more effective method than the one they were using, we ask: How would the pregnancy trajectories of those not using their preferred contraceptive have differed had they been able to access their preferred method? Taking an inverse probability of treatment weighting approach, we show that using a preferred method was associated with half the likelihood of conceiving a pregnancy likely to result in a birth within 21 months postpartum (adjusted hazard ratio 0.43; 95 percent confidence interval 0.32, 0.57). Our findings highlight the consequences of failing to provide people with their preferred method and reveal how, in a context where people face substantial barriers to reproductive healthcare, discordant use increases the risk that people will have a baby that they did not desire at that time or, in some cases, ever.","PeriodicalId":22069,"journal":{"name":"Studies in Family Planning","volume":"38 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2025-06-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144337451","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Identification is needed of person-centered fertility and FP measures that assess what individuals want, desire, need, and prefer without a researcher-ascribed value of what is the right outcome. This scoping review examines how the concept of person-centeredness has been employed as part of population-based FP measurement. For this review, we defined measures as person-centered if they assess directly a person's preferences, wants, and desires while at the same time assessing if the person can or wants to meet those preferences, wants, and desires. The review finds several studies that use or adapt standard measures of intention to use contraception and unmet need; however, a smaller number develop novel approaches that capture method preferences and satisfaction with methods to better capture individuals' needs, wants, and desires as well as their ability to attain these needs, wants, and desires. Results are used to make recommendations going forward for the design and testing of improved person-centered FP measurement at the global, national, and programmatic levels.","PeriodicalId":22069,"journal":{"name":"Studies in Family Planning","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2025-06-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144275918","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While there has been increasing attention to the concept of sexual well-being, measures of sexual and reproductive health are predominantly deficit-based and ignore whether people are having positive experiences. To consider the development of a measure of sexual and reproductive well-being, a multidisciplinary and geographically diverse group of experts was convened. Outcomes of this meeting included endorsement of a draft definition of sexual and reproductive well-being, demonstrated enthusiasm and commitment to the development of a measure capturing this construct, and delineation of core considerations in the measure development process. These included considering the diversity of normative and political contexts around sexuality and reproduction, and the critical nature of meaningful community engagement when developing this measure. A pathway for measuring development was defined, with the goal of creating a concise measure assessing people's holistic experiences of sexuality and reproduction that can draw attention to and monitor the extent to which people are having the sexual and reproductive lives they wish to have.","PeriodicalId":22069,"journal":{"name":"Studies in Family Planning","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2025-06-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144258974","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using structural equation modeling and logistic regression among population‐based samples of women aged 15–49, we find evidence that the abbreviated eight‐item subscale is a reliable measure of contraceptive empowerment (Cronbach's alpha range: 0.67–0.78), significantly associated with women's involvement in the decision to use contraception. Results show geographic variability, with the highest overall contraceptive empowerment in Kenya (mean = 4.26, range: 1–5) and lowest in Uganda (mean = 3.67), reflecting diverse fertility trends, contraceptive norms, and gendered power dynamics. The subscale's two‐dimensional structure—distinguishing existence and exercise of choice—proves effective, with existence of choice being a stronger correlate of involvement in contraceptive use decisions than exercise in most settings. Despite some challenges, such as variable factor loadings, the subscale shows acceptable internal consistency and construct validity. This research underscores the need for multidimensional measures of reproductive empowerment to capture this nuanced process.","PeriodicalId":22069,"journal":{"name":"Studies in Family Planning","volume":"144 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2025-06-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144236838","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Despite significant progress on many aspects of sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR), challenges remain, and they are exacerbated by rising anti-rights movements in many countries. At a time when SRHR is under threat, it is important to surface evidence that speaks to its critical role in development and its inextricable connections to multiple global goals. In this commentary, we argue that investing in SRHR is strategic because it yields substantial benefits to individuals, economies, societies, the environment, and peace and security, and thus contributes to progress on related goals. We encourage SRHR advocates to leverage the broad array of arguments to bolster decision-makers' and other stakeholders' support of SRHR, alongside the well-established arguments grounded in cost-effectiveness, and returns on health and human rights. With the world falling short of achieving the Sustainable Development Goals and conservative forces threatening to undo the progress that has been made, urgent and collective action on multiple fronts is needed. By recognizing that many development priorities are interconnected, we can accelerate progress through cross-movement advocacy and mobilization.","PeriodicalId":22069,"journal":{"name":"Studies in Family Planning","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2025-05-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144128759","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While previous research has explored the relationship between static occupational status and fertility intentions, it has largely overlooked how career development affects these dynamics. Changes in occupational status alter both the material resources available for childbearing and the balance between work and family life. Using diagonal reference models on pooled data from the Chinese General Social Survey, this study investigates the impact of intragenerational occupational mobility on fertility intentions. The findings reveal that this impact varies by parity and gender. Intragenerational upward mobility is positively associated with men's first birth intentions but negatively associated with women's first birth intentions. However, intragenerational downward mobility is negatively associated with first birth intentions for both men and women. For additional children, the impact of upward mobility is not significant, but the negative impact of downward mobility is still prominent. Overall, while upward mobility enhances fertility intentions for men by providing greater resources and stability, for women, the pursuit of career advancement often results in reduced fertility intentions. These findings highlight a gendered trade-off between professional success and family formation.","PeriodicalId":22069,"journal":{"name":"Studies in Family Planning","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2025-05-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144111895","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Had it not been for increasing proportions of pregnancies aborted, the rate would have been 58 percent higher. Comparing regional averages, excepting Sub-Saharan Africa and Oceania, the pace of decline in conditional undesired birth rates slowed by the 2000s; hence, the global average rate decreased by 22 percent in the latter half of the post-ICPD period after declining by 31 percent and 33 percent during the 15-year periods immediately before and after ICPD.","PeriodicalId":22069,"journal":{"name":"Studies in Family Planning","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2025-05-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144111900","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
