Empirical vulnerability strata in under-five mortality in Cameroon
How do family transitions shape residential mobility among Quebec residents? Evidence on lagged, synchronous, and anticipatory effects by immigration status
BACKGROUNDQuebec has experienced sustained immigration alongside profound transformations in family trajectories, reshaping residential needs across the life course.While prior research has mainly focused on synchronous links between family transitions and residential mobility, less attention has been paid to the combined role of anticipatory and lagged dynamics, particularly in relation to immigration status and heterogeneity within immigrant po…

Does sex composition of offspring relate to fertility in urban areas? The case of Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso
With the onset of the demographic transition in sub-Saharan Africa, couples’ desired number of children and the sex composition of offspring may become conflicted, with potential effects on future fertility. While intuitively expected, this effect has not been observed in studies in sub-Saharan Africa, where the level of fertility is higher than in other African regions. In this study, the hypothesis of a conflicted situation was examined by asse…
Fertility decline in sub-Saharan Africa
The interplay between remarriage and fertility is among the most poorly documented subjects in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA), despite remarriage being one of the fundamental aspects of marriage dynamics in this region. We use Demographic and Health Survey data from 34 countries in SSA to document the association between remarriage and fertility during the reproductive years and over the fertility transition. The findings show that in 29 countries, rem…
Understanding how young African adults interact with peer-generated sexual health information on Facebook and uncovering strategies for successful organic engagement
Young adults in our sample tend to superficially interact with peer-communicated sexual health information through likes than engage (comments) or propagate such messages. Message features that increase engagements and propagation of messages include multimedia and engaging styles like storytelling. Our findings provide valuable insight and pave the way for the design of effective and context-specific sexual health information use of features tha…
Stepfather families and children's schooling in sub-Saharan Africa
Research on stepfamilies and their effects on childhood investments is limited in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA), a region characterized by a high level of remarriage and fertility
Does economic growth reduce childhood stunting? A multicountry analysis of 89 Demographic and Health Surveys in sub-Saharan Africa
Background: There is mixed evidence and lack of consensus on the impact of economic development on stunting, and likewise there is a dearth of empirical studies on this relationship in the case of sub-Saharan Africa. Thus, this paper examines whether economic growth is associated with childhood stunting in low-income and middle-income sub-Saharan African countries. Methods: We analysed data from 89 Demographic and Health Surveys conducted between…
Multilevel analysis of infant mortality and its risk factors in South Africa
The study analyzed infant mortality and its risk factors in South Africa. It aimed to examine infant mortality in the country by taking into account the hierarchical nature of the problem and investigate the with-in country variation in modeling. In addition to the usual individual level risk factors of infant mortality, living standard, mother’s education, and income inequality were defined at municipal level, while HIV prevalence was fixed at p…
The effect of partners' education on women's reproductive and maternal health in developing countries
Household environmental health hazards’ effect on under-five mortality in sub-Saharan Africa
Household environmental health hazards or simply household health hazards (HHH) are pathogens and chemicals in the household that can cause health problems. In this study, we assess their effect on under-five mortality (U5MR) in 12 sub-Saharan African countries, using data from the Demographic and Health Surveys. Referring to the principal component analysis approach, we measure the HHH by the following indicators: source of water and its locatio…
Exploring the Paradox of Intimate Partner Violence and Increased Contraceptive Use in sub‐Saharan Africa
We question the positive effect of intimate partner violence on women's modern contraceptive use in sub‐Saharan Africa found in previous studies. The explanations offered for this counter‐intuitive result are either that women make greater efforts to avoid childbearing in conflictual relationships, or that endogeneity bias exists. Endogeneity bias stems from the inability of researchers to attribute a specific cause to one variable when they are …
Gender inequality and the use of maternal healthcare services in rural sub-Saharan Africa
Family size and intra-family inequalities in education in Ouagadougou
While the potential benefits for educational investment of decline in family size are well known, some questions have emerged on the distribution of these benefits. Do all the children in a family benefit equitably from the improved conditions brought abou
Does antenatal care matter in the use of skilled birth attendance in rural Africa
Correlates of and Couples' Concordance in Reports of Recent Sexual Behavior and Contraceptive Use
This study uses couple‐level data to measure couples' concordance of self‐reported time since last coitus and of condom and other contraceptive use at last sexual intercourse among monogamous couples in Liberia (N = 1,673), Madagascar (N = 4,138), and Namibia (N = 588). The study also examines the characteristics associated with sexual behavior and contraceptive use occurring in the 28 days prior to the interviews among couples whose reports are …
