This paper discusses the issues involved in the measurement of unmet need for contraception (the "KAP-gap") and provides a new measuring model that removes the shortcomings of existing approaches. The paper reviews the existing measures of the KAP-gap, which generally define unmet need as the proportion of married women who want no more children but are not using contraception, and points out flaws in these approaches. The main shortcomings of the basic approaches include the exclusion of the following 2 groups: 1. Women who wish to stop childbearing but who may have good reasons for not practicing contraception at the time of the survey, such as the fact that they may be infecund or pregnant at the time; and 2. Women who wish to postpone childbearing but who are not implementing this spacing preference because they are not practicing contraception. By addressing these 2 shortcomings, the author's new methodology provides a more accurate picture of unmet need. The author uses data from Demographic and Health Surveys (DHS) conducted in 15 developing nations during the 1980s to show the difference between the conventional approaches and the alternative method. Previous studies of the KAP-gap have differed widely in their assessment of the size and implications of the phenomenon; some have even claimed that no unmet need exists. The new method, however, reveals an average total unmet need of 17% among the currently married women of the populations studies. Noting that the rest of the developing world probably has a roughly equal KAP-gap, the author concludes that the total number of couples or unmarried individuals in the Third World with unmet need for contraception is about 100 million.

An estimated 41% of pregnancies are unintended. Globally, 86 million pregnancies are unintended. These unintended pregnancies resulted in 41 million abortions, 33 million unplanned births and 11 million miscarriages. Nearly half of all pregnancies in the U.S. are unintended, which is defined as any pregnancy either mistimed, unplanned or unwanted. Safe and effective contraception is clearly one of the most important areas of reproductive health for women. In this book, the authors review a number of topics in this important subject area. In the section on unmet needs, the authors reviews the unmet needs for contraception in the U.S., UK, Europe, Asia and the developing world as well as unmet needs in special populations such as adolescents, women with medical conditions and women living with HIV.

Women with unmet need for family planning are those who are fecund but are not using any method of contraception, not wanting any more children, or wanting to delay the next pregnancy. This notion points to the gap between women?s reproductive intentions and their contraceptive behavior. The need for contraception remains too high. This circumstance is made worse by both a growing population and a shortage of family planning services. It is important that family planning is widely available and easily accessible. This book is intended as an aid to substance that all health workers interested in becoming more effective practitioners will consult on many occasions during their clinical practice. It provides views that the readers can test their experiences against. It presents sound and clear advice on some of the most practical guidance applicable to family planning.

Beyond the Numbers presents a thought-provoking series of essays by leading authorities on issues of population and consumption. The essays both define the poles of debate and explore common ground beyond the polarized rhetoric. Specific chapters consider each of the broad topics addressed at the International Conference on Population and Development held in September 1994 in Cairo, Egypt. The essays are supplemented by sidebars and short articles featuring more-impassioned voices that highlight issues of interest not fully explored in the overviews. As well as providing a sense of the difficulties involved in dealing with these issues, the essays make clear that constructive action is possible. Topics covered include: the interrelationships between population, economic growth, consumption, and development the history of population and family planning efforts gender equality and the empowerment of women reproductive rights, reproductive health, family planning, health and mortality
