RealClearPolitics - Is Abortion Good for Girls?: "I spent the anniversary of Roe v. Wade reading an important new book, 'Premarital Sex in America,' written by two well-regarded young sociologists, Mark Regnerus of the University of Texas at Austin and Jeremy Uecker at the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill.
"They analyzed Add Health's nationally representative data to find out how sex and abortion affect young women's mental health and life satisfaction.
"Their conclusion? The data 'suggest that abortion may contribute to depression in emerging adulthood, independent of sexual-behavior patterns' in young women -- and even after controlling for factors like race, family structure, parents' education and educational attainment."
