520 |a Most previous tests of the religious-minority-group status hypothesis have sought explanations of Catholic pronatalism in more developed countries settled by Europeans or European immigrants. The present pilot study departed from that tradition by focussing on Protestant antinatalism in a lesser developed country settled by Malay and Chinese immigrants. This study of 366 unmarried college students in the central and southern Philippines found that Protestant respondents came from higher socioeconomic origins than did Catholic respondents. The Protestant men desired many fewer sons and daughters than did Catholic men, even when these differences in origins were controlled. The Protestant women did not want many fewer sons but did want many fewer daughters than the Catholic women wanted. Protestant respondents were less likely than the Catholics to view the instrumental roles of sons and daughters as the most salient advantages of having children. Protestants were much more likely than Catholics to think a married couple should start contraception before the first birth and much less likely to think that artificial methods of family planning were against God's will. The results suggest that support for the religious-minority-group status hypothesis is not limited to minorities with explicitly pronatalist creeds or to religious groups in more developed nations or nations with an indigenous European culture.
