摘要

背景/背景：尼日利亚的生育率仍然很高，目前停滞不前，每名妇女生育6个孩子。人口文献表明，该国存在着维持高生育率的主要因素。以前大多数关于生育的研究都集中在女性身上，少数研究男性生育行为的研究主要集中在个人层面的因素上，忽略了社区环境的影响。因此，这项研究考察了个人、家庭和社区层面的因素对尼日利亚男性生育行为的影响。数据来源和方法：该研究使用了2013年尼日利亚人口与健康调查（DHS）的男性数据。结果：结果显示，地区、种族多样性、社区家庭规模规范和社区教育水平等社区变量对尼日利亚男性生育行为有显著影响（p<0.05），在努力降低尼日利亚的生育率时，必须考虑到这一因素

Multilevel analysis of male fertility behaviour in Nigeria

Context/Background : Fertility level in Nigeria remains high and currently, it stagnating at about six children per woman. Demographic literature had established the existence of preponderance of factors sustaining a high level of fertility in the country. Most previous studies on fertility had focused on women, and a few that examined male fertility behaviour focused mainly on individual-level factors, ignoring the influence of community contexts. This study, therefore, examined the influence of an individual, household and community level factors on male fertility behaviour in Nigeria. Data source and Methods: The study used male data from 2013 Nigeria Demographic and Health Survey (DHS). Results: Results showed that community variables like region, ethnic diversity, community family-size norm and community-level of education significantly influenced male fertility behaviour in Nigeria (p<0.05). Conclusion: The study thus established community contexts as an important factor influencing male fertility behaviour, and this factor must be taken into consideration in the efforts to reduce the fertility level in Nigeria
