Participants then answered whether they intended to use alcohol during a future pregnancy.

Prenatal alcohol exposure risk perception dimensions and influencing factors: A systematic review and conceptual model

Three influencing factors of these dimensions were also identified: information, sociocultural, and individual. These dimensions and influencing factors were brought together to create the proposed novel Pregnancy Alcohol Risk Perception (PARP) conceptual model.
