Abstract

BACKGROUND

The aim of this study is to determine the current practice level of family planning and the associated factors among public secondary school teachers in Enugu East Senatorial District.

METHOD

A cross-sectional study was carried out among public secondary school teachers, aged 18 - 60 years, in Enugu East Senatorial District, using probability proportional to size sampling and systematic random sampling to select 1000 participants. Binary and multiple logistic regression analyses were used to determine association. An odds ratio with a 95% confidence interval (CI) was computed to determine the level of significance.

RESULTS

The current practice level of family planning is 26.5%. Respondents with bachelor in education were 2 times more likely to be a current user of family planning (AOR=2.39; 95% CI: 1.25-4.55). However, respondents in age group 38 years and above were less likely to be a current user of family planning (AOR=0.64; 95% CI: 0.43-0.95), likewise female respondents (AOR=0.66; 95% CI: 0.44-0.98). Additionally, respondents who mentioned radio (AOR=0.64; 95%CI: 0.44-0.93), social media (AOR=0.73; 95% CI: 0.53-0.99) and healthcare (AOR=0.61; 95%CI: 0.43-0.88) as source of information were less likely to be current user of family planning. Whereas, partner who encouraged the use of family planning (AOR=2.54; 95% CI: 1.71-3.78) span style="font-family:'Times New Roman'; font-weight:bold">, partner who allow each other to decide on family planning methods (AOR=4.47; 95% CI: 2.67-7.48) and those who had good knowledge of family planning (AOR=1.96; 95% CI: 1.40-2.67) were more likely to be current user of family planning.

CONCLUSION

The level of current practice of family planning is low and a significant number of factors predict the current practice of family planning. A family planning educational workshop among teachers is needed to improve teacher's knowledge on family planning to address the issue of adolescent sexual reproduction as teachers are vessels of knowledge impartation to students.

摘要

背景

本研究旨在确定埃努古东参议员区公立中学教师计划生育的现行实践水平及其相关因素。

方法

采用概率比例与大小抽样和系统随机抽样相结合的方法，对埃努古东参议员区 18-60 岁的公立中学教师进行了横断面研究，共选取 1000 名参与者。采用二项和多项逻辑回归分析来确定关联。计算优势比及其 95%置信区间（CI）以确定显著性水平。

结果

计划生育的现行实践水平为 26.5%。具有教育学士的受访者成为计划生育当前使用者的可能性是其两倍（AOR=2.39；95%CI：1.25-4.55）。然而，年龄在 38 岁及以上的受访者成为计划生育当前使用者的可能性较小（AOR=0.64；95%CI：0.43-0.95），同样是女性受访者（AOR=0.66；95%CI：0.44-0.98）。此外，提到广播（AOR=0.64；95%CI：0.44-0.93）、社交媒体（AOR=0.73；95%CI：0.53-0.99）和医疗保健（AOR=0.61；95%CI：0.43-0.88）作为信息来源的受访者成为计划生育当前使用者的可能性较低。而鼓励使用计划生育的伴侣（AOR=2.54；95%CI：1.71-3.78）、允许彼此决定计划生育方法的伴侣（AOR=4.47；95%CI：2.67-7.48）和对计划生育知识掌握较好的伴侣（AOR=1.96；95%CI：1.40-2.67）更有可能成为计划生育的当前使用者。
