Determinants of Use of Safer Conception Strategies Among HIV Clients in Uganda (ICPSR 35879)
Released/updated on: 2015-05-01
Geographic coverage: Uganda, Sub-Saharan Africa
The first phase of the study is a formative evaluation of fertility planning and decision making through qualitative in-depth interviews with male and female HIV clients (and their partners) in Uganda who have either recently conceived a child or have an intention to conceive. HIV, family planning, and traditional healers are also interviewed to examine knowledge, attitudes and practices related to childbearing support services for persons living with HIV/AIDS. Phase 2 is an observational cohort study of 400 persons living with HIV/AIDS with fertility intentions who are followed for 24 months to assess determinants of use of contraception and pre-conception risk reduction methods. Providers are also surveyed longitudinally to assess changes in knowledge, attitudes, practices and structural barriers regarding provision of safer conception support over time.

National Survey of Adolescents, 2004: Uganda (ICPSR 22411)
Released/updated on: 2018-07-09
Geographic coverage: Africa, Uganda, Sub-Saharan Africa
Time period: 2004-02-01--2004-07-01
The National Survey Adolescents was launched in 2004 in four Sub-Saharan African countries--Burkina Faso, Ghana, Malawi, and Uganda--to provide detailed information on adolescent risk-taking and health-seeking behavior as related to HIV, STDs and unintended pregnancy. The study examined a range of factors (e.g., behavioral, sociocultural, economic) that could lead to increased vulnerability to risk. The study also encompassed knowledge of means of prevention, sources of trusted information and health care, and impediments to adolescents' abilities to apply their knowledge and take preventive action. The Ugandan portion was administered between February and July 2004. Using a two-stage stratified sample design that selected households from rural and urban clusters, 7,106 households were listed for initial screening. After an initial interview in each household, individual surveys were administered in person to adolescents between the ages of 12 and 19 who were de facto or de jure members of the household. This process collected 6,659 individual interviews with adolescents. Because of the sensitive nature of questions administered in the survey, informed consent forms were obtained from both parents/guardians and the respondents, and in all possible instances interviewers and respondents were paired up by gender.

This annual survey, fielded June to December 2004, was conducted in over 50 countries to solicit public opinion on social and political issues. Respondents were asked what they thought was the most important goal for the world as a whole, whether they trusted people from their ethnic group more than people from other ethnic groups, if they heard about various global institutions, and their thoughts of these institutions. They were also asked for their overall opinion of various countries. Respondents were asked to give their opinion on other issues such as globalization, terrorism, and democracy. They were also asked questions concerning the United States. These included whether they think American foreign policy has a positive effect or negative effect on their country, whether the United States plays a positive, negative, or neutral role in the growth of the world economy, the role the United States plays in keeping peace in the world, the role the United States plays in the fight against poverty in the world, and the role the United States plays in the protection of the environment. Additional questions addressed respondents' thoughts on whether their country was governed by the will of the people and whether elections were free and fair. Demographic information includes sex, age, education level, employment status, religious preference, household income, and type of residential area (e.g., urban or rural).
