Automated analysis of family values of vkontakte users

The paper examines opinions of VKontakte network users about having births. A dataset annotated with opinions on three classes of positions towards six childbirth-related topics. Experiments on automatic classification of opinions have been carried out. The best results were obtained using neural network model BERT in the formulation of NLI (Natural language Inference). It was revealed that the phenomenon of conscious childlessness is actively represented in the network, while having many children remains a poorly widespread model of behavior. Within the framework of a pro-natalist policy, it is important to support a positive public opinion about parenting, to develop family-life balance for parents.
