The present study used survey data. The declaration of violence in Palestinian society was made in 2019 by the Palestinian Central Bureau of Statistics. The study sample consisted of 5,114 married women or formerly married women. In addition, the study used the descriptive approach to describe the demographic, social, and economic variables that affect the prevalence of marital violence against women (MVAW). Binary logistic regression was utilized to investigate the determinants of MVAW. The study concluded that young women are more susceptible to all forms of violence. An increase in the number of children in a family is correlated with higher rates of violence, and the women who are living in the Gaza Strip have elevated odds of experiencing MVAW if compared to women living in the West Bank. Women in low-income families are more susceptible to marital violence than women from affluent families. Currently, working women are less vulnerable to MVAW than their non-working counterparts. The study recommends further research and collaboration between government and non-government organizations to prevent the expansion of this problem.","PeriodicalId":37435,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Population and Social Studies","volume":"6 5","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-08-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141920218","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It examines three approaches the Malaysian government takes to enhance migrant rights protection: concluding a zero-cost migration memorandum of understanding (MoU), digitalizing the recruitment process for foreign workers, and introducing joint liability schemes for employers and private employment agencies. These approaches are a significant move towards rights-based solutions, consistent with Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) 10.7: Facilitate orderly, safe, regular, and responsible migration and SDG 8.8: Protect labor rights and promote safe and secure working environments for all workers. Document analysis examines data from official documents and legislations, reports from international organizations, statements from migrant advocacy organizations and trade unions, parliamentary debates, and newspaper articles. The findings have two implications. First, it reflects a central shift in the conceptualization of Malaysia’s labor migration industry from a business model to a rights protection model through eliminating intermediaries. Second, it illustrates the transition of Malaysia’s migration policy from sovereign migration governance to developmental global migration governance. In the Malaysian case study, policy changes are both the consequence of a top-down statist approach and global and societal movements toward developmental global migration governance.","PeriodicalId":37435,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Population and Social Studies","volume":"87 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141797939","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We conducted 48 informal conversations, 15 in-depth interviews, and five key informant interviews, with ongoing observations during fieldwork. Through the narrative of native people, several factors, such as institutional, social, cosmological beliefs, individual, and environmental factors, are associated with the decreasing use of ethnomedicine among Khasi indigenous people. Institutional factors include social forestation, land occupation for tea gardens, and land occupation for the reserve forest; social factors include cosmological belief, religious belief, trustworthiness, and longitude of medical care; individual factors influence education, medical accuracy, individual belief, and shortages of healers; environmental factors include the emergence of new diseases and losing therapeutic plants. Ethnomedicine could be a vital source of remedies for novel diseases (virus and bacteria-associated diseases). However, the matter of concern is that the use and significance of therapeutic plants are decreasing gradually. The results underscore the urgency of documenting ethnopharmacological data to conserve therapeutic plants, and clinical tests of therapeutic plants are needed to build trust in ethnomedicine.","PeriodicalId":37435,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Population and Social Studies","volume":"139 26","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141656084","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Initiatives have been made to reduce stunting in many parts of the country, yet they do not seem to bring the expected results. As such, we conducted a study to improve the situation by reducing stigma towards mothers and increasing fathers’ participation in caring for their children. The study was a case study. Data were collected through in-depth interviews and focus group discussions (FGD) with families of stunted children. The study’s novelty lies in the proposed policy model of reducing stigma towards mothers and increasing fathers’ participation in child-raising to reduce stunting. Our findings confirm that mothers must be dealing with a stereotype of ideal mothers, and they find it hard to gain autonomy in decision-making related to their child’s upbringing, including health. Furthermore, findings also show that fathers’ participation in raising children is one of the solutions to reduce stunting. Fathers’ crucial roles are controlling their child’s nutrition, including feeding patterns, taking the child to health facilities, and keeping vaccination schedules. Reducing stigma toward mothers emphasizes gender-sensitive parenting and support from government agencies responsible for stunting eradication. Meanwhile, heterogeneity in how family members perceive stunting has also become another significant challenge that needs deeper exploration. Finally, this study presents policy recommendations to support fathers’ roles in overcoming stunting.","PeriodicalId":37435,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Population and Social Studies","volume":" 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141676742","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We used the 2019-20 Gambia Demographic and Health Survey data. A multi-stage sampling technique was used to select women of reproductive age (8,747 urban & 3,119 rural). Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, Kitagawa’s Decomposition technique, and the negative binomial (NB) model, α = .05. The mean Children Ever Born (CEB) was higher in the rural (3.25 ± 3.02) than in the urban (2.19 ± 2.45) areas. In the urban and rural areas, 82.8% and 95.1% of women aged 45–49 years who had had three children progressed to fourth birth, respectively. The parity progression rate (λ) was lower in the urban (-0.0647) than in the rural (-0.051). The difference between the standardized fertility rates in rural and urban areas was 83.2 in The Gambia, and the effect of the age composition attributable to this difference was 8.11%. The fertility incidence rate ratio (IRR) was 44% (IRR = 1.440, 95% CI [1.371, 1.513], p < .001) higher in the rural than the urban areas. A similar pattern of rural-urban differences in fertility was observed in the full model. Childbearing progression was higher in rural areas than urban areas and rural-urban differences exist in fertility determinants in The Gambia. Thus, rural-urban-specific fertility reduction programs may address the observed fertility differences in the rural and urban areas in The Gambia.","PeriodicalId":37435,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Population and Social Studies","volume":" 41","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141677287","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Failure to reintegrate into society frequently results in homeless former prisoners becoming re-involved in crime. The situation is particularly worrying when the recurring criminal involvement involves other overlapping factors, which should be identified for a sound understanding of this homeless group. In this research, 30 homeless former prisoners, nine Malaysian government agency officers, and nine volunteers were interviewed in this study. Several sub-themes, namely peer influence, self-confidence conferred by drugs, and drug addiction, were derived from interviews with homeless former prisoners. The officers’ interviews revealed the sub-themes of mental disorders, addiction problems, survival, friends’ influence, environmental influence, personal choice, and unrepentant. The volunteers’ interviews revealed the sub-themes of friends’ influence, unemployment, drug activity-filled environments, and drugs as a necessity. The findings provide an insight into the influence of drugs, which were among the leading contributing factors to the involvement of homeless former prisoners in crime. This comprehensive study involved three population groups and filled knowledge gaps on homeless former prisoners.

The study aimed at examining the trends and factors related to unintended pregnancy, an area that has received less focus in previous research. This study analyzed 15 years of data (2001–2016) from four national surveys in Nepal, focusing on currently married women aged 15–49 who were currently pregnant or had the last birth experienced within five years before the survey. The sample included 4,694, 4,006, 4,104, and 3,966 females from the 2001, 2006, 2011, and 2016 surveys respectively. This study used bivariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis to examine unintended pregnancy. In 2001, 39.4% of women experienced an unintended pregnancy, but over 15 years, this rate decreased by almost half, reaching 19.9% in 2016. Age, number of household members, wealth index, age at first birth, children ever born, fertility preference, unmet need for family planning, and husband’s desire for children were significantly associated with unintended pregnancy in all the survey years. The results suggest a need for policies that ensure all pregnancies are intended, promoting reproductive rights and justice for women.","PeriodicalId":37435,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Population and Social Studies","volume":"11 13","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141380617","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The young generation is the largest producer of food waste compared to adults. The Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) reports that consumer behavior is the main factor causing food waste in middle-income countries. Considering that the younger generation occupies 24.34% of Indonesia’s population, this study aimed to analyze the determinants of food waste reduction intention among the young generation in Indonesia. The Extended Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) with four new introductory variables was used as a theoretical framework to understand the intentions of the young generation in Indonesia regarding food waste reduction. Data was collected from the young generation spread across Indonesia through an online survey using questionnaires, which resulted in 340 respondents. Data were then analyzed using descriptive analysis and partial least squares-structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) to test the conceptual model and hypotheses proposed. The results showed that perceived behavioral control (PBC), food consumption, level of religious knowledge, and level of knowledge significantly influence food waste reduction intention. Religious knowledge was the most influential predictor. This is in line with the nature of the Indonesian community, which is highly religious, and religion profoundly guides daily lives. Based on the results, this study recommended three practical implications for reducing food waste and is expected to contribute to ensuring food security and achieving the Sustainable Development Goals.","PeriodicalId":37435,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Population and Social Studies","volume":"4 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141379481","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The desire for large families, especially by men from the northern region, is a crucial driver of the country’s high total fertility rate. There is, however, a shortage of evidence on the sociodemographic determinants of men’s fertility desires despite being essential stakeholders in fertility decisions in the family. This study, therefore, estimates men’s desired family sizes and the sociodemographic and contextual factors influencing their desires in the northern region of Nigeria. Data from the men’s recoded 2018 Nigeria Demographic and Health Survey dataset were used with a sample of 7,822 men. The chi-square test and ordinal logistic regression analysis were used to test the association and estimate the relationship between the outcome and predictor variables. The findings revealed that 71% of men desired to have at least six children, which was high irrespective of sociodemographic characteristics. However, the desire for six or more children was lower (65%) among the youngest cohort than among the oldest (80%). Being a Muslim (AOR = 4.50, 95% CI [3.86, 5.24], p < .05), having two or more wives (AOR = 2.41, 95% CI [1.68, 3.45], p < .05), having 3–5 (AOR = 2.28, 95% CI [1.89, 2.76], p < .05) and six or more (AOR = 6.03, 95% CI [4.48, 8.13], p < .05) living children, and living in the northeast (AOR = 2.03, 95% CI [1.75, 2.37], p < .05) and northwest (AOR = 1.44, 95% CI [1.20, 1.72], p < .05) zones were the most significant predictors of high fertility desire by men.
