Social Network Involvement in Abortion Care‐Seeking and Abortion Outcomes among a Population‐Based Sample of Nigerian Women Who Had Abortions
People often engage social networks when navigating abortion access constraints, but limited research links this involvement to abortion outcomes. This cross‐sectional study analyzed PMA2020 data from 1,144 women in Nigeria who had abortions, identified through population‐based surveys and abortion‐focused follow‐ups conducted in 2018 and 2019–2020, respectively. We examined how social network involvement in care‐seeking—specifically, in method o…
Estimating the Social Visibility of Abortions in Uganda and Ethiopia Using the Game of Contacts
Social network–based data collection methods that rely on third‐party reporting have emerged as a promising approach for measuring abortion in restrictive settings. In order for these methods to accurately measure abortion incidence, they must also assess the visibility of abortions within social networks. Failure to do so may result in estimates affected by transmission bias, caused by imperfect knowledge of all abortions within one's social net…
What is the relationship between contraceptive services and knowledge of abortion availability and legality? Evidence from a national sample of women and facilities in Ethiopia
In Ethiopia, abortions are legal for minors and for rape, incest, foetal impairment or maternal disability. Knowledge of abortion legality and availability is low, and little effort has been made to disseminate this information for fear of invoking anti-abortion sentiment; instead, systems rely on health providers as information gatekeepers. This study explores how exposure to and interaction with family planning service delivery environment, spe…
Social Network‐Based Induced Abortion Incidence Estimation in Burkina Faso
Social network‐based methods are increasingly used to estimate induced abortion incidence and investigate correlates. Approaches differ in the social tie definitions used to identify which social network members’ abortion experiences respondents will report. This study compares the effect of using the “best friend” (closest female friend) versus “confidante” (specifying mutual sharing of personal information) definition on abortion incidence esti…
Does the Impact of Motherhood on Women's Employment and Wages Differ for Women Who Plan Their Transition Into Motherhood
Women's ability to control their fertility through contraception and abortion has been shown to contribute to improvements in education and employment. At the same time, their employment and wages decline substantially when they transition to motherhood. About one-third of births are unintended, and it is unknown whether the impact of motherhood on employment, hours, and wages is smaller for women who planned their transition into motherhood comp…
Estimating abortion incidence using the network scale-up method
A major challenge in abortion research is accurately measuring the incidence of induced abortion, particularly in restrictive settings. This study tests the network scale-up method (NSUM) to measure abortion incidence, which uses respondent social network
