Abstract

ObjectivesTo compare attitudes toward abortion among youth before and after the Polish Constitutional Tribunal introduced abortion ban in October 2020. Study designThe study uses two nationally representative samples of final-year secondary school students conducted in Poland before (year 2018, N = 1609) and after the abortion ban (year 2021, N = 1513). ResultsThe support for abortion increased between 2018 and 2021 (OR=2.77 in foetus impairment case; OR=2.58 in mother's health at risk case). The increase was stronger among females than males. ConclusionsYouth accept abortion more in 2021. The increase may be linked to the Tribunal Court decision and youth involvement in massive demonstrations.
