Lindberg Publishes Article on Adolescents’ and Young Adults’ Receipt of Person-centered Contraceptive Counseling
Posted: 1/15/2026 (CSDE Research)
CSDE External Affiliate Laura Lindberg (Rutgers) recently published an article in JAMA Network Open on adolescents’ and young adults’ receipt of person-centered contraceptive counseling (PCCC). Lindberg and co-authors drew on US population-based data on self-identified female respondents from the 2022 to 2023 National Survey of Family Growth (NSFG). PCCC was low across all age groups. Adolescents (aged 15 to 19 years) were less likely to receive PCCC than adults aged 25 years and older, but adolescents who did receive PCCC reported higher rates of preferred method use. They also addressed limits in this newest NSFG data, which can not be pooled with prior cycles of the survey.
