POVERTY AND FAMILY PLANNING PRACTICES OF MARRIED WOMEN
Journal Title: Academic Research International - Year 2012, Vol 3, Issue 2
Abstract
The study examined the relationship between poverty and family planning practices of married women in Zone 5 Barracks of the Nigeria Police. The correlational research design was used. Volunteer sampling was used to select 537 respondents from the barracks. The instrument used for data collection was a self-structure and validated questionnaire with reliability of 0.74. Simple regression analysis was used to test the hypothesis at 0.05 alpha level. The hypothesis was rejected. Based on the finding it was recommended, among others that in order to reduce the pervading high level of poverty in Nigeria, a policy of expansion and inclusion of marginalized individuals such as women into the labour force and decisionmaking process should be put in place.
