Abstract: Brief abstract written by HRAF anthropologists who have done the subject indexing for the document
Through the use of quantitative analytical procedures, this
source examines the effects of religiosity upon wanted family size, anticipated completed
family size, months of exposure per live birth, and contraceptive efficiency among Mexican
Americans in Austin, Texas. The author concludes that religion has little measurable effect
upon fertility patterns, and points to socioeconomic and cultural factors as possibly
having a greater relevance to them.
