Comments on the D. C. Reardon and J. R. Cougle examination of depression and unintended pregnancy in the US National Longitudinal Survey of Youth. Billings discusses two methodological flaws in the analysis that undermine the conclusions stated. It is concluded that more rigorous analysis of the data is needed before any conclusions can be drawn about the link between depression and unintended pregnancy and marital status.
