Paternal Orphanhood, Parental Illness, and Child’s Biological Relationship to Household Head
This research fills a hole in the literature by investigating whether, in Nigeria, differences exist in the health of paternal orphans or vulnerable children depending on whether they have a close biological relationship with the household head compared to a distant relationship when health is measured through diarrhea, fever, and cough. The research analyzes the 2013 Nigeria Demographic and Health Survey Data and employs a multi-level logistic r…
Orphans and vulnerable children’s nutrition in Nigeria with overlap with biological relations with the household head
This research analyses the 2013 Nigeria Demographic and Health Survey Data. The multilevel logistic regression is used as the model estimation technique. The study investigates how the intersection of being a paternal orphan or vulnerable child and having close versus distant biological relations with the household head impacts wasting. Findings indicate that paternal orphans or vulnerable children who are grandchildren face the greatest signific…
Health Behaviors and Health Literacy
Background Older persons are one of the most vulnerable groups as regards low health literacy. However, little is known about the extent of limitations and multi-faceted nature of their health literacy, such as its characteristics and social and geographical dimensions. Additionally, most existing studies have predominantly treated health literacy as a risk factor of health and wellbeing of older persons as opposed to an outcome that must be purs…
Testing the impact of orphan status, illness in the household, and a child's relationship to the household head on wasting in Nigeria
Existing studies on the impact of orphanhood on wasting in sub-Saharan Africa were historically conducted in East and South Africa. These studies have been interested in understanding how close kinship ties with household heads impact orphans' risk of wasting, considering economic resources in the household. The unavailability of secondary data in the past made exploring the idea difficult. Little is known on the subject in West Africa, particula…

Household Decision Making Among Married Women in Kenya
Orphanhood and School Attendance in Nigeria
Using the 2010 Nigeria Education Data Survey, this research examines the interaction of paternal and maternal/double orphanhood with gender and household income on school attendance; we ascertain whether the relationship varies by age and urban-rural residence. The research employs an economic explanation and the sociocultural construction of the gender division of labor in sub-Saharan Africa as theoretical frameworks. Findings show that the comb…
The Implications of Ethnicity, Gender, Urban–Rural Residence, and Socioeconomic Status for Progress Through School among Children in Nigeria
Social capital and health in Kenya
Gender, children, and family planning networks in Kenya
This study examines how having young children (those aged less than 18 years) in the households influences the patterns of social interaction between men and women. The study reveals that women's social networks are influenced more than men's by having more young children. Most women are recognizing that having many young children is not only an economic but also a social burden. As such, a large young family forces women to seek instrumental, in…
