  • The Introduction and Use of Norplant registered Implants in Indonesia

    Jayanti Tuladhar, Peter J Donaldson et al.ARTICLEStudies in Family Planning1998

    In this study, patterns of Norplant use in Indonesia are reviewed to assess the implications of this experience for the introduction of new contraceptive methods. Data from the Norplant Use-Dynamics Study and the 1994 Indonesia Demographic and Health Survey are analyzed, and patterns of acceptance, continuation, and removal are described. Acceptance of Norplant has increased steadily since it was first introduced. The method is now used by more t…

  • An Assessment of Norplant Removal in Indonesia

    Andrew Fisher, Andrew A Fisher et al.ARTICLEStudies in Family Planning1997Cited by: 3

    From 1987 to 1997, approximately four million Indonesian women had a Norplant insertion. Concerns have been raised about the timely removal of the implant within a few days of the user's request or at the end of the recommended five years of use and about the possibility of a large and rapidly increasing backlog of removal cases developing. This study of 2,979 Indonesian women in 14 provinces, all of whom had had Norplant inserted five or more ye…

  • Effect of Family Planning Availability and Accessibility on Contraceptive Use in Nepal

    Jayanti Tuladhar, Jayanti Man TuladharARTICLEStudies in Family Planning1987Cited by: 6

    This study examines the importance of availability and accessibility of family planning services in relation to current contraceptive use in Nepal. The proportion of women who knew of a family planning services outlet in Nepal increased sharply between 1976 and 1981, from 6 percent to 33 percent. The Contraceptive Prevalence Survey data of 1981 indicate that an inverse relationship exists between the prevalence of current contraceptive use and tr…

  • Differential Mortality in Rural Nepal

    J M Tuladhar, Jayanti Tuladhar et al.ARTICLEStudies in Family Planning1986

    This study reports the first analysis of mortality differentials in Nepal. The objectives are to analyze differentials in infant and child mortality over time in 2 major geographical areas--the Hills and Terai; and to analyze differentials in child survivorship for education and landholding groups within these areas. Demographic surveys were conducted annually from 1975 through 1978 by the research and evaluation unit of the Family Planning/Mater…

  • Differential mortality in rural Nepal

    Open AccessJ M Tuladhar, Jayanti Tuladhar et al.ARTICLEJournal of Biosocial Science1983

    This study reports the first analysis of mortality differentials in Nepal. Longitudinal survey data collected from four districts indicate infant mortality was lower and child survival higher in the hill than in the plains (Terai) region, but that the differential narrowed between 1975 and 1978. In addition, child survival varied directly with education and landholdings within both regions. Possible explanations for the findings include the prese…

  • Migrant-Nonmigrant Differentials in Socioeconomic Status, Fertility and Family Planning in Nepal

    Open AccessJ M Tuladhar, Jayanti Tuladhar et al.ARTICLEInternational Migration Review1982References: 1

    This study identifies the socioeconomic characterisitics of immigrants in Nepal, their fertility, and the incidence of family planning. These characterisitics are contrasted with the receiving or nonmigrant population and inferences drawn regarding the probable social and demographic impact immigrants may have on the "receiving" population. Demographic surveys were conducted annually from 1975 through 1978 in the Hills and Terai by the research a…

  • The Relative Impacts of Vertical and Integrated FP/MCH Programs in Rural Nepal

    J M Tuladhar, Jayanti Tuladhar et al.ARTICLEStudies in Family Planning1982

    The objectives of this analysis were to assess the probable impacts of vertical and integrated FP/MCH programs on family planning (knowledge, use, and intentions to use), family size preferences, fertility, and mortality (child and infant). The following discussion summarizes and draws conclusions regarding the results of this investigation. The vertical program showed a greater impact on knowledge of family planning than the integrated program. …

  • Differential fertility in rural Nepal

    J M Tuladhar, Jayanti Tuladhar et al.ARTICLEPopulation Studies1982Cited by: 3

    Fertility differentials between geographical areas (Hills and Terai) and landholding and education groups within the areas were analysed from the first longitudinal sample surveys conducted in Nepal. Results indicated that fertility is higher in the Hills than in the Terai among older women who have been married for longer periods. The periodic return of Gurkha soldiers to the Hills, and differences in health conditions which may contribute to hi…

  • Marital structure and birth rate in Nepal

    Open AccessJohn Stoeckel, Jayanti Tuladhar et al.ARTICLEJournal of Biosocial Science1976

    The shift in the marital structure of Nepal between 1961 and 1971 has been analysed, and its implications for the CBR in 1971, Although there has been a slight increase in the age at marriage, over 90% of Nepali women were married by the ages of 20–24 years in 1971 and the overall marital structure of 1971 is more favourable to a higher CBR than the structure at the beginning of the decade. This is primarily due to a decline in the incidence of w…
