Project UP aims to obtain knowledge on risk and protective mechanisms that play a role in unintended pregnancies. For data analyses, we will (re-)use readily available data from the Generation R cohort, a study of families in multi-ethnic Rotterdam. Specifically, we examine: Who is at risk for an unintended pregnancy, and how do risk factors cluster together? Which factors predict the non-use of contraceptives? What factors explain the link between unintended pregnancies and negative outcomes in children? What factors protect against the negative outcomes of unintended pregnancies?
