Abstract
Previous assessments of individuals' values for various contraceptive consequences have employed one of four methodologies: free elicitation, direct ratings, multiple regression, or factor analysis. All four methodologies are flawed because they produce group rather than individual values, relying on rating scales, and fail to incorporate information regarding consequence trade-offs. Axiomatic conjoint measurement is proposed as an alternative methodology and used to determine individuals' values for a selected set of contraceptive consequences at two stages of the family-planning career.Keywords: Americas; Attitude--women; Behavior; Contraception; Contraception Continuation--women; Contraceptive Effectiveness--women; Contraceptive Usage; Decision Making; Delivery Of Health Care; Developed Countries; Family Planning; Family Planning Centers; Health; Health Facilities; Method Acceptability; Methodological Studies; North America; Northern America; Psychological Factors; Reversibility; United States
