摘要

This is the third in a series of reports that estimates the number of pregnanciesand pregnancy rates by age and race of woman based on the latest available information. The focus of the present analysis is on changes in the overall number and rate of pregnancies and its components during the 1980's, and on differences for the year 1988 by mother's age and race. The most recent year covered is 1988 because comparable data on induced abortion are not available for 1989.
