Introduction to the Special Issue: Indicators in Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights
In August of 2021, the Editorial Committee of Studies in Family Planning put out a call for abstracts for a special issue focused on indicators in sexual and reproductive health and rights.We did so in response to our perception of a growing demand in the field not only for advances in measurement, with fresh thinking on ways to measure progress beyond existing indicators, many of which have been critiqued as more program-centered than personcent…
Prevalence and Correlates of Perceived Infertility in Ghana
Perceived infertility is an understudied phenomenon in low‐ and middle‐income countries, where biomedical infertility can have severe consequences, particularly for women. We conducted a nationally representative survey of Ghanaian women, estimated the prevalence of and reasons for perceived infertility, and assessed factors associated with higher levels of perceived infertility using a partial proportional odds model. Among 4,070 women, 13 perce…
Association of Household Savings and Expected Future Means with Delivery Using a Skilled Birth Attendant in Ghana and Nigeria: A Cross-Sectional Analysis
Domestic Violence and Abortion Among Rural Women in Four Indian States
The prevalence of domestic violence and abortion in India is high, yet little is known about the relationship between these experiences. Data from two linked data sets, India's 1998-1999 National Family Health Survey (NFHS-2) and a follow-up survey in 2002-2003, were analyzed. The analysis examines how the experience of physical violence affects the subsequent uptake of abortion, and how the experience of abortion affects subsequent experience of…
Selection Bias in the Link Between Child Wantedness and Child Survival: Theory and Data From Matlab, Bangladesh
We examine the potential effects of selection bias on the association between unwanted births and child mortality from 7,942 women from Matlab, Bangladesh who declared birth intentions in 1990 prior to conceiving pregnancies. We explore and test two opposing reasons for bias in the distribution of observed births. First, some women who report not wanting more children could face starvation or frailty; and if these women are infecund, the remainin…
Frequency of Intimate Partner Violence and Rural Women’s Mental Health in Four Indian States
This study examines the association between self-reported frequency of verbal, physical, and sexual intimate partner violence (IPV) and mental health among 6,303 rural married women (age 15-49), in four Indian states: Bihar, Jharkhand, Maharashtra, and Tamil Nadu. Data are taken from the 2002-2003 National Family Health Survey-2 Follow-Up Survey. The results indicate that experiencing physical, verbal, or sexual IPV is associated with an increase…
Developing scales to measure perceived HIV risk and vulnerability among Ethiopian women testing for HIV
HIV prevention services are increasingly being used by individuals in developing countries, but we know very little about how self-assessed HIV risk determines health-seeking behavior. People may feel they are at risk of HIV infection for many reasons, including both risky behavior and anxiety associated with heightened HIV awareness. In order to improve the measurement of perceived HIV risk, we developed scales measuring two constructs. Perceive…
The Ties That Bind: Perspectives on Marriage and Cohabitation
Ties That Bindwas organized to review and assess the scientific evidence about the causes of trends in marriage and other forms of intimate unions. The contributors address these two questions: What do we know about the factors that influence the formation of marriages and other intimate unions, the timing of union formation, and the forms that unions take? What factors explain the dramatic changes in union formation we have observed over recent …
