Research involving Pompeu Fabra University has explored the relationship between having or not having a romantic partner with changes in fertility desires in Japan. The study, which involved Ryohei Mogi, a researcher at the University’s Department of Political and Social Sciences, together with Ryota Mugiyama (Gakushuin University, Japan) and Alyce Raybould (University College London, UK), shows that people without a romantic partner are more likely to revise their fertility desires downward, especially from “wanting children” to “unsure.”
