An analysis of five focus groups conducted with students ages 16-20 attending technical college in Velikye Novgorod regarding reproductive health issues. The results show a high level of sexual activity, but low levels of contraceptive use and negative attitudes toward modern contraceptive methods. Despite public disapproval of induced abortion, its use appears widespread.
