Population learning among rural Turkish youth from an adult-oriented family planning program.
This study indicates that rural Turkish youth learn indirectly from family planning programs directed toward adults. Female youth in villages, however, seem to pick up much more family planning information than male youth. Two program implications emerge: first, that unmarried youth should be included in ongoing family planning program efforts and second, that stronger efforts must be made to reach adolescent males who eventually will be major decision-makers on family size.
