Abstract:

The paper presents the results of a study into the perceptions about family and parenthood held by female university students in Russia. First of all, the study highlighted a prevailing idea, that a family is a social institution primarily concerned with facilitating the reproduction, socialization and support of the personal and emotional status of its members. Second, our research into the idea of a happy family brought forward the notion of a large family with several children, characterised by mutual understanding, harmony and love. Third, we found that female students on the whole held a positive view of parenthood. We also identified the perceived drawbacks of parenthood among the students. Finally, we examined views on what ``being a parent{''} involved. The research led to the conclusion that at the cognitive and emotional levels, there is no breakdown of the institution of the family in Russia. At the same time, there appears to be a growth in negative attitudes toward parenthood, which evolve under the influence of external factors. One of the approaches to making reproductive attitudes more resilient against such factors is to ensure that university education systems make a provision for components focused on reproductive intentions and behaviours.
