Most women prefer to remain single. Despite this seeming acceptable trend, most cultures and societies still perceive marriage as important, desirable and the only means through which women can fully realize their potentials as mothers and wives. The main objective of the study was to examine the perception of presently single women about marriage. Methods: They study made use of structured questionnaire to explore the relationship among socio economic status of women, influences, location and former marital status on their perception of marriage. Results: Findings indicated that women of all socio economic status desired to be married. The odds ratio or the likelihood of desiring marriage was highest among tertiary education level women and civil servants (.456, .876, and .567). Influences determined the perception of never married women about marriage. Over sixty percent of women accepted that their location in urban centres and former marital status affected their perception about marriage. In all women looked at their present status as transitional and desired to be married at some point. Conclusion/recommendation: It is therefore plausible to articulate that despite the global and national postponement of marriage among women, the women in the north central Nigeria look at marriage as desirable and that they want to be married at some point in their lives. There is therefore an urgent need for programmes that will prepare women towards happier marriages.","PeriodicalId":52433,"journal":{"name":"Etude de la Population Africaine","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-07-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41983063","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 study investigated sexual and reproductive health issues among youths on the streets of Harare’s Central Business District. Data and methods: The study interviewed 202 youths and had components of of in-depth interviews and Focus Group Discussions. Findings: Almost all youths had engaged in sex and had debuted at very young ages. Educational attainment was associated with current sexual activity; so was contraceptive use with drug use and alcohol consumption. Alcohol exposed youths to prenancy. Unsafe abortions were common among female youths - half had suffered an STI. Youths abused drugs and alcohol. Street youths had poor access to SRH services. Conclusion: Government should extend sexual education to street youths, keep them in school and make SRH services easily accessible to them.","PeriodicalId":52433,"journal":{"name":"Etude de la Population Africaine","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"64214481","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}

This study examined how mass media intervention messages on Lassa fever have influenced the level of knowledge, attitudes and health practices of people living in South-East Nigeria towards controlling and eradicating this disease . Methods: The study adopted survey research design. Multi-stage sampling technique was used in selecting 428 respondents while structured questionnaire was used for data collection.Data analyzed was by descriptive statistics and Pearson correlation technique. Result: The level of exposure to and knowledge of Lassa fever media campaigns among South-East residents were high as confirmed by 90% and 51.1% respectively of the responses. Media campaigns against Lassa fever positively influenced the attitudes of 56.3% of the respondents towards prevention and control of this disease.There is positive significant relationship (0.93 with 0.01 level of significant) between exposure level to Lassa fever media campaigns and knowledge level of the disease among South-East residents. Conclusion: Mass media campaigns aimed at sensitizing the public on Lassa fever disease was adjudged effective. There is also need to employ more of interpersonal communication strategies to enhance effective delivery of this health messages.","PeriodicalId":52433,"journal":{"name":"Etude de la Population Africaine","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-04-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48528362","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}

Sparks","doi":"10.11564/33-1-1364","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.11564/33-1-1364","url":null,"abstract":"Background: Women’s undernutrition is a major concern in many sub-Saharan African countries including Ethiopia; however, little information exists on its spatial and temporal variation within a single national context. This paper examines spatial and temporal variations in women’s undernutrition and its determinants in Ethiopia between 2000 and 2016. Data source and methods : We use data from the Ethiopia Demographic and Health Surveys from 2000 to 2016. We used multilevel logistic regression models with region-level random effects to estimate determinants of undernutrition. Results: The results show substantial regional variations in women’s undernutrition in Ethiopia, which show mixed patterns over time. Also, the regional variations are significantly affected by age, education level, marital status, wealth, occupational status and type of residence as well as some aggregate factors. Undernutrition risks are considerably higher for teenage women, no education, never-married, unemployed, and rural women, as well as women from poor households than their counterparts. Additionally, in regions with lower levels of women’s education, the risk of undernutrition was higher. Conclusions : Regional variations in women’s undernutrition in Ethiopia are significantly determined by individual sociodemographic, economic and community level characteristics. Policy decisions should focus on bridging the regional disparities in the country, especially in areas that have made little progress in reducing women’s undernutrition.","PeriodicalId":52433,"journal":{"name":"Etude de la Population Africaine","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-04-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46930143","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}

A cet effet, la presente etude s’est fixee comme objectif de chercher les facteurs associes aux Besoins Non Satisfaits (BNS) en Planification Familiale (PF) dans ce pays. Donnees et methodes : Les donnees utilisees sont celles des EDS qui y ont ete realisees en 1995-96, 2006 et 2012-13. Leurs analyses ont ete effectuees en recourant aux tableaux croises et statistiques du chi-deux et aux modeles multivaries de regression logistique. Resultats : En 1995-96 la proportion d’enfants decedes, le nombre d’enfants survivants et les attitudes des couples vis-a-vis de la PF contribuent le plus a l’explication de la variation du risque de BNS en PF pour espacer les naissances ; en 2006 et 2012-13, on retrouve en plus les indicateurs de l’offre des services de PF. Quant aux BNS pour limiter les naissances, quelle que soit la periode, le nombre d’enfants survivants explique seul presque la totalite de sa variation. Concernant le total des BNS en PF, ses facteurs explicatifs les plus importants sont similaires a ceux du risque de BNS en PF pour espacer les naissances. Les femmes les plus concernees au Mali par les BNS en PF ont un nombre eleve d’enfants survivants, ont moins experimente les deces d’enfants et ne sont pas informees sur la PF dans les centres de sante pendant leurs consultations medicales. Conclusion : L’amelioration de la qualite des services de PF et de la disponibilite des contraceptifs de longue duree d’action, et l’integration sante infantile et PF devraient etre renforcees au Mali pour y reduire la prevalence des BNS en PF.","PeriodicalId":52433,"journal":{"name":"Etude de la Population Africaine","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-04-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48904306","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}
