The thing is, I created aggregates for the presence of non-numerical responses on the regional, religious, and ethnic level, and it strongly correlates with high IFS otherwise on all those levels, which suggests that the attitudes that produce the non-numerics are causally linked to pro-natalist attitudes.

I could let that stand on its own, of course, but if the non-numeric ("Don't know" is coded separately as 98 and automatically removed from the aggregates, so I don't necessarily think I can say that it looks like fatalism. Rather, the opposite.) has implicit religious meaning, that would obviously make some sense and provide for a framing of my findings.

Thank you for recommending authors. Do you by any chance also have links or titles of papers I could look into for context?
