Teen mothers often have a lower socioeconomic position as adults than other women due to selection, opportunity costs of childbearing, or both. Few studies examine whether that is the case after an induced abortion as well. Also, few studies explore whether the strength of the association between teen pregnancy and adulthood socioeconomic position differs by family background. This study uses Finnish register data of 53,252 women born between 1975 and 1979 to examine with logistic regression whether the likelihood of having tertiary education depends differently on teen birth and abortion experiences by parental socioeconomic position. I also control for and report whether having a partner providing childcare helps mitigate the negative association between teen motherhood and education. The results show teen mothers had lower odds than those who aborted to have tertiary education, and both groups were behind those with no teen pregnancy. These groups’ education did not vary statistically significantly by family background, although the gap in the probability of having tertiary education between teen mothers and those with no teen pregnancy among the lowest socioeconomic backgrounds was 43%-points, and only 27%-points among the highest. Teen mothers with and without a partner had similar probabilities of having tertiary education (8– 11%). Those who had an abortion and subsequently separated from their partner, however, had similar probability of having tertiary education as teen mothers (13%), although others who had an abortion had a much higher probability (20%). Selection shapes these relationships. Survey and register data should be combined to study these associations using methods of causal inference.

芬兰的社会经济背景会否影响青少年生育或堕胎与受教育程度之间的联系?

由于选择,生育的机会成本或两者兼有,青少年母亲的成年社会经济地位通常比其他妇女低。很少有研究检查人工流产后是否也是这种情况。此外,很少有研究探讨青少年怀孕与成年社会经济地位之间的关联强度是否因家庭背景而异。这项研究使用了1975年至1979年之间的53,252名妇女的芬兰登记数据,通过逻辑回归检验,受父母社会经济地位的影响,接受高等教育的可能性是否取决于青少年的出生和堕胎经历。我还控制并报告说,有一个提供育儿的伴侣是否有助于减轻青少年母亲与教育之间的负面联系。结果显示,青少年母亲的机会比那些因接受大专教育而流产的母亲更低,而且两组都落后于没有青少年怀孕的母亲。这些群体的教育水平在家庭背景上没有显着差异,尽管在最低社会经济背景下,青少年母亲和没有青少年妊娠的母亲接受高等教育的可能性差距为43%,而只有27%。最高的。有或没有伴侣的未成年母亲接受高等教育的可能性相似(8-11%)。但是,那些堕胎并随后与伴侣分离的人接受高等教育的可能性与未成年母亲相似(13%),而其他堕胎的可能性更高(20%)。选择决定了这些关系。
