@selinkoksal.bsky.social discusses miscarriage reporting & variation in UK surveys. Definitions are unclear, social desirability bias & issues in recognising pregnancy. Discrepancies potentially due to framing effect, or potentially cohort effects @bspsuk.bsky.social #bsps2025 @soc-misc.bsky.social

In addition, @heinivaisanen.bsky.social presented a poster 'Social inequalities in (recurrent) miscarriage risk among Finnish mothers' with preliminary results finding discrepancies in #miscarriage risk in Finland by income, but less so by education or migrant status using administrative data

Yesterday, @mccompans.bsky.social presented on 'Miscarriage prevalence and factors: a multi-source approach in France', discussing the +/- of using surveys, administrative, and qualitative data to study #miscarriage. Triangulation is key and the right data source depends on research questions

📈 Interesting trend: Younger cohorts reported more miscarriages - perhaps because stigma is decreasing and they're more open about their experiences, because of improvement in early pregnancy detection, or generational differences in recall accuracy

💡 Key finding: Miscarriage affects estimated 14% of pregnancies. While advanced maternal age increased the risk, education level and financial status did not significantly impact the likelihood of miscarriage
