Abstract
The author and Tatsuo Endo organized a review session on Psychological Research in Family Planning for the 20th International Congress of Psychology which met in Tokyo in August 1972. It was the first time in the history of the Congress that a session had been devoted to psychological research in family planning. To date behavioral scientists have contributed little to the understanding of psychosocial phenomena related to family planning and population dynamics. However there is increasing interest in the interaction of individuals within family planning systems. Much psychosocial research can be focused on the complex process of couple decision making ranging from the decision to engage in sexual relations through choice of contraceptive (if any) and what to do about conception if it occurs. There was general agreement on the sensitivity of cultural economic and political aspects of family planning.
