Intersecting fertility
Scarce studies have examined an intersection of women's fertility and education and their impacts on racially stratified women's later-life health. This study examined the health outcomes of women aged sixty-five and older by comparing Black and non-Black women. It focused on analyzing how the number of children a woman had, and her level of education, can constitutively impact her later-life health outcomes. We used data from the National Health…
Unequal Access
Using the structural intersectionality framework, world-system and the fundamental causes of diseases theories, and cross-sectional data of 61,543 women from the Population-Based HIV Impact Assessment Project conducted in Tanzania, Rwanda, Malawi, and Zimbabwe, this study examines the intersection of structural factors associated with inequalities in cervical cancer screening among women within the underdeveloped African countries. The findings s…

Assessing Racial and Ethnic Disparities in Timing of Pregnancy Related Deaths
World-Systems Analysis and Postnatal Care Utilization among Periphery Women
Current cross-national research suggests that increased economic dependence by peripheral countries on core ones is associated with poor maternal health outcomes and greater socioeconomic inequalities in the periphery. However, not enough attention has been given to analyzing how this economic dependence—via foreign direct investment (FDI), importation, and exportation between peripheral and core nations—specifically influences periphery utilizat…
Examining the Period-Based Changes in the Effect of Socioeconomic Status in Maternal Healthcare Utilization Across Regional and Residential Contexts in Postcolonial Tanzania (1991–2016)
Applying dependency theory, this manuscript uses data from the six cross-sectional Tanzania Demographic Health Surveys from 1991 to 2016 (n = 30,028) to explore temporal variations in the effect of socioeconomic status (SES) on maternal healthcare (MHC) utilization across different residences and regions. Research in this area is nonexistent in Tanzania. The results suggest a notable gap in using Tanzanian MHC based on SES and location (i.e. resi…
Exploring commonalities and disparities of seattle residents' perceptions on dockless bike-sharing across gender
Intersectionality and Dependency Lenses in Neonatal Mortality
While neonatal mortality is a critical measure of national health and well-being, efforts to reduce it in post-colonial, global south national contexts continue to yield unsatisfactory (sometimes worsening) odds of such events. This paper applies the intersectionality framework and dependency theory to time-based changes in neonatal mortality in Tanzania from 1991 to 2016 as a new model for understanding these persistent odds of neonatal mortalit…
