In August 2012, we administered an online questionnaire to more than 550 reproductive age residents of the United States. Participants were randomly selected from SurveyMonkey Audience, a paid service of SurveyMonkey. We assessed knowledge by asking questions about prevalence, relative safety, and consequences of abortion, contraception, pregnancy and birth.
