Predictors of Entrepreneurial Intentions Among Students Enrolled in Education‐Related Degree Programmes: Does Sex Play A Role
This study explored four key factors influencing entrepreneurial intentions: professional attraction, social valuation, entrepreneurial capacity and creative capacity using the Entrepreneurship Intention Model (EIM). It also examined whether sex plays a moderating role in predicting entrepreneurial intentions. The research targeted 265 non‐residential students from the College of Distance Education (CoDE) at the University of Cape Coast. Data wer…
Introducing field digital data collection systems into seasonal malaria chemoprevention campaigns: Opportunities for robust evidence development and national e-health strategies
Seasonal malaria chemoprevention (SMC) is a World Health Organization-recommended intervention to protect children under the age of 5 in Africa’s Sahel region. While SMC remains highly effective in decreasing malaria cases, implementing countries face several challenges regarding collecting quality data; monitoring coverage and compliance and overcoming delays in campaigns due to late payment to field distributors. To address these challenges, th…
Stigma and discrimination tendencies towards Covid-19 survivors: Evidence from a nationwide population-based survey in Ghana
Historically, infectious diseases have generated fears among populations. Unhealthy handling of these fears result in the stigma and discrimination of infected patients. Globally, measures taken so far by governments to curb the spread of the novel coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, although helpful, have created fears in people. Consequently, there are reported Ghanaian media cases of stigmatisation against persons who were infected a…
Agri-driven habitat modification and small mammal species assemblage nexus in the Atewa Range and Bimpong Forest Reserves, Ghana
This study provides first-hand information on how the changing microhabitat in evergreen forests influences the assemblage of small terrestrial mammals. 30 plots of 100 × 50 metres were randomly sampled in the closed forest, open forest and farmlands habitats. Four transects, 100 m in length, spaced at 10 m, were established in each plot. Ten traps spaced at 10 m from each other were placed on each transect. In the dry and wet seasons, small mamm…

‘ Asram is really killing us here’: Attribution for pregnancy losses and newborn mortality in the Ashanti Region of Ghana
While overall neonatal mortality rates are improving in Ghana, the Ashanti Region has the highest mortality rate in the country. The clinical causes of newborn deaths are well known, yet local beliefs about illness aetiology, cause of death and care-seeking are less well understood. This exploratory qualitative study sought to understand how community members perceive and respond to neonatal illness. Researchers worked with public health nurses, …
