YOUNG ADULTS AND FERTILITY [2009]
Aleena Wojcieszek, Rachel Thompson

The development of this decision aid was led by Aleena Wojcieszek, a Psychology Honours student I supervised in 2009. In an alternate allocation controlled trial, we found that exposure to this tool increased young people's knowledge of fertility decline over the lifespan and of the effectiveness of in vitro fertilisation. Exposure also decreased people's desired age at commencement and completion of childbearing. This trial was published here.
