- Abstract
A study of premarital pregnancy in all women under 30 living in a single county who first married in 1968 is reported. The proportion of brides pregnant at marriage declined with higher age at marriage and with increased education. During the year of study the out-of-wedlock births were only about one-third of the total premarital pregnancies.
