The analysis of reproductive installations of young women in certain territories of Siberia was conducted. Some factors defining a demographic situation are considered in details: quantitative index of birth rate, increase of abortions number, social installation on late childbirth. In society in the period of an economic crisis such motives of interruption of pregnancy as work loss, decrease in level of the income, development of feeling of social vulnerability, were created and became main. There was even a new social group of women - those who does abortion because can't pay off on the bank credits. It is remarkable that men insist on the decision to make abortion in the conditions of economic instability. The tendency to change of values at young girls is noted: once all preferred family values, motherhood leave on minor positions, the modern generation valuable has career growth and professional realization.

Respondents in the Irkutsk region note that stable financial position and the resolved housing question can serve as incentive for the birth of the second child in a family. During the work following conclusions were made: the tendency to a the families with small number of children is observed; extra family values - the professional growth, material well-being, - come to the forefront; the increase in number of abortions both among young women and among teenage girls is noted; the tendency to the birth of the child at "late" reproductive age is described.
