[Success of various communication channels in the spreading of information on the family planning].
31,233 women in the regions of Bosnia and Hercegovina were questioned in 1973 in order to determine the success of communication about family planning and the variables involved in the different reactions of the subjects. The most effective method (44.9%) of communication was that of direct, ''face-to-face'' contact, followed by dispensing of information by the Commision for Abortion (24.2%), advertising (7.3%), and by means of maternity service (2%). The 25-39 year old age group of women displayed the most interest in contraceptive services. The potential of contraceptive education in schools is emphasized, although at this point is inadequately taken advantage of.
