摘要
Many biomedical aspects of emergency contraception have been investigated and documented for >30 years now. A large number of social science questions, however, remain to be answered. In this article, WE review the rapidly growing but geographically lopsided literature on this topic. Using computer database searches supplemented by reference reviews and professional correspondence with those active iu the field, we gathered literature on the social science and service delivery aspects Of emergency contraception published in English zip through December 1998, as well as a few unpublished papers from the same time and slightly later, representing regions where published material is practically nonexistent. Methodologically acceptable papers are summarized in our tables and text, and form the basis for suggested improvements in existing emergency contraceptive services, The review also offers ideas for designing new emergency contraception services where they do not yet exist. WE conclude by proposing an agenda for further social science research in this area. CONTRACEPTION 2000;61:145-186 (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Inc. All rights reserved.
