▼ Dharavi, one of the largest unplanned settlements in the world, inhabit over 700 000 people. The illegal settlements dating back to the 18th century are now under threat to be torn down in order to develop highly modern office and apartment spaces. The future for the inhabitants is uncertain, only those who qualify will get a replacement home within the new development. The architecture and the urban planning of the new plans show signs of copying cities like Singapore or Shanghai rather than establishing a plan that considers the cultural, historical and contextual aspects of India, Mumbai and Dharavi. Planners and architects often see themselves as experts and they often rule by the hand of the politicians. Within this top-down planning approach the knowledge of the inhabitants and the sometimes-inexplicable bond to one’s dwelling is forgotten. The essay sets out to find answers to how people and time affect the built environment and the public spaces as well as how important the individual relationship is to the understanding of the workings of the two. The method used in this essay to find what makes Dharavi unique; observations of the urban spaces were combined with the dreams of the inhabitants of Dharavi. Pictures, sounds and descriptive text have complemented five interviews where the participants were asked to describe their future dreams for themselves and for Dharavi. Through combining the two methods a deeper analysis could be obtained where participation and individual thoughts mixed with how the space could be experienced from an outsider’s point of view. The result became both factual and democratic, an approach Dharavi has seen little of thus far. The essay also contains a large theoretical segment, as one of the purposes for the essay has been to investigate how the human relationship to its built environment has been assessed in the past and how it is in the present and how it can change in the future. Theories of philosophers, anthropologists, psychologists, sociologists, planners and architects have been investigated in order to gain a deeper understanding of how individuals interact with the physical structures around them, and in what way this knowledge can change the future of the urban planning profession. The main conclusion that can be drawn through this work is that no place exists without a context and that the human presence is essential in the understanding of the quality and uniqueness of a space. The people, their history and their stories, the culture, the different religions, the rest of Mumbai and India all affect the way in that Dharavi is functioning. Changing this dynamic and erasing it completely by building generic multistory glass and steel buildings might alter this finely tuned unity. Flexibility is also one of the key words for Dharavi as every street serves a multitude of uses throughout the day; a shift from a vertical layout to a horizontal may, as another conclusion, change that flexibility and it might harm the tightly knit social cohesion and the thriving culture…

▼ Despite a decline in adolescent fertility rates in the United States, unplanned pregnancy rates remain among the highest in the developed world and sexually transmitted infections (STIs) are on the rise. With U.S. sexuality education remaining inconsistent, exploring other platforms, such as religious institutions, to make an impression about sexuality on young people may provide an additional strategy to further reduce unplanned pregnancies and prevent the spread of STIs. While prior research has demonstrated links between religiosity and sexual health, a gap exists with respect to influences that may mediate the relation between religiosity and experiencing STIs and unplanned pregnancy. Additionally more remains to be understood about how lifetime religiosity levels influence long-term sexual health outcomes. Using Waves I through IV of the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent to Adult Health (Add Health), this study sought to assess the relation between religiosity and the sexual health outcomes of lifetime experiences of chlamydia, gonorrhea, HPV, any of these three STIs, and unplanned pregnancy. In the investigation of adolescent religiosity’s link to these outcomes, mediation analyses were conducted to assess whether attitudes toward sex, parent-child connectedness, peer religiosity, problem alcohol use, condom use knowledge, sexual debut, and number of sexual partners produced indirect effects. Additionally, logistic regression analyses were conducted to determine if there were differences in sexual health outcomes (chlamydia, gonorrhea, HPV, any STI, and unplanned pregnancy) between those who sustained religiosity from adolescence into adulthood and groups with lower levels of lifetime religiosity (late adopted religiosity, discontinued religiosity, and no religiosity). Results showed religiosity to be significantly protective against poor sexual health outcomes (chlamydia, gonorrhea, HPV, any STI, and unplanned pregnancy) through the significant indirect effects of attitudes toward sex, parent-child connectedness, problem alcohol use, condom use knowledge, sexual debut, and number of sexual partners. However, the outcomes for which each mediator demonstrated significance varied. Peer religiosity did not demonstrate significant indirect effects for any of the STIs examined or unplanned pregnancy. Additionally, logistic regression results showed sustained religiosity to be most protective of having ever experienced chlamydia, gonorrhea, HPV, any STI, and unplanned pregnancy. The findings of this study support prior research showing religiosity as a protective factor with respect to sexual health. Understanding more about the role religiosity plays in the long-term sexual health outcomes of adolescents and young adults is a helpful tool to inform parents, practitioners, and policymakers in the efforts to continue reducing unplanned pregnancies and preventing the spread of STIs.

▼ Despite marketers’ interest in consumers’ motivations for in-store decision making, past research has treated all unplanned purchases as the same behavior. To address this research gap, this dissertation investigations consumers’ motivations for unplanned purchases. The introduction presents the definition and importance of the unplanned purchasing phenomenon before reviewing past research on in-store decision making and the significant remaining research questions. The first essay distinguishes between consumers’ intrinsic (i.e., internal) and extrinsic (i.e., instrumental) motivations for unplanned purchases and introduces a novel theory of sequential choice: in-store motivation balancing. This theory predicts that consumers’ motivations for unplanned purchases change over a shopping trip to reflect the balancing of intrinsic and extrinsic purchase motivations. A field study and two online shopping experiments that integrate the in-store path-to-purchase with consumers’ motivations provide evidence that consumer motivations are dynamic and impacted by a three-way interaction between the personality trait of buying impulsivity, trip progress, and budget focus. This theory extends the literature on motivation change during sequential choice to the in-store decision making domain. Importantly, the factors that influence purchase motivations address several unanswered questions in the literatures of impulse buying and self-control. Finally, the dynamics of in-store motivation provide insights for retailers and manufacturers to become more shopper-centric with their in-store merchandising and promotion tactics. The second essay investigates the moderating effect of consumers’ dynamic motivations for unplanned purchases on the effectiveness of in-store marketing. Based on motivation theory and the general fit literature, two field studies and two shopping experiments test the relationship between consumers’ intrinsic and extrinsic shopping motivations and three types of point-of-purchase messages (i.e., intrinsic motivation messages, non-price extrinsic motivation messages, and price-based messages). The results demonstrate that retailers frequently employ non-price in-store marketing, that in-store marketing is significantly related to shopping motivations, and that consumers are more likely to make an unplanned purchase from a display with in-store marketing that matches their dynamic shopping motivations. While the effectiveness of price-related retail promotion is well established in past research, this research is the first to investigate the effect of in-store marketing on the likelihood of an incremental unplanned purchase. From a managerial point-of-view, the results provide insights for how retailers and manufacturers can deliver the right message to the right consumer at the right time using personalized in-store marketing tactics such as mobile applications and digital signage.

▼ This dissertation conceptualizes formal organizing as an enacted capability that is constituted in everyday communication practices bound by time and space. Using a practice perspective, I argue that unplanned conversations are a constituent feature of organizing and a primary mover in organizing process. As part of the dissertation, I have developed a multi-level theoretical framework that provides insights about the factors that influence the frequency of unplanned conversations at work. In Chapter I, previous work on unplanned conversations from multiple disciplines (e.g., communication, design) is reviewed to define unplanned conversations, explicate their characteristics, and consider them as the unit of analysis. Following this discussion, I apply a practice perspective to explain how unplanned conversations produce and re-produce organizational structures, as well as the recursive relationship between structure and unplanned conversations. Finally, I discuss various ways to measure and operationalize unplanned conversations. Chapter II unpacks the effects of individual, team, and organizational level factors on the frequency of unplanned conversations. A two-mode data analytic strategy is presented to explore the dualistic relationship between the types of unplanned conversations and the organizational spaces they create. Then, the influence of unplanned conversations on organizational outcomes is discussed. Throughout the chapter, relevant research questions, hypotheses, and theoretical propositions are offered. Chapter III addresses the methodological challenges associated with capturing and measuring unplanned conversations. To overcome the methodological challenges, I developed and tested a multi-methodological approach to studying unplanned conversations. Data was collected using structured observations, spot sampling, online survey questionnaires and experience sampling from N = 61 employees over a four-week period. Finally, I report on the varied statistical methods used to explore the relationships described in Chapter II. The findings in Chapter IV provide strong support for the relationship between organizational context and the frequency of unplanned conversations. Correspondence analysis results provide strong support for the dualistic relationship between types of conversations and spaces. Taken together, the dissertation helps us more fully understand how unplanned conversations enable and constrain organizational communication processes. Chapter V concludes with a discussion of the results, limitations, an agenda for future research, and the theoretical and practical implications of the dissertation.

▼ Unplanned healthcare use following discharge costs Medicare over $17 billion per year. Health literacy is associated with increased healthcare use and cost while heart failure is the leading cause of 30-day readmission in the United States. Previous studies have assessed the association between health literacy and hospitalization or mortality in the heart failure population utilizing different assessment tools including S-TOFHLA, REALM, and 3-Question Brief Health Literacy Assessment (BHLS). However, no study to date has used the 3-Question BHLS to assess the association of health literacy and 30-day unplanned healthcare use in this population. The aim of this study was to assess 30-day unplanned readmissions and emergency department visits based on health literacy evaluated by the BHLS in acute care heart failure patients. This was a prospective, observational cohort study conducted at a large quaternary health-system. Patients admitted to the institution with a diagnosis of heart failure were included in the study. Patients that consented to enrollment were asked to independently complete the BHLS. Scores were then assigned and patients categorized as either the low or adequate health literacy. Thirty-one days after discharged, the electronic medical record at the study institution was reviewed or the patient was called to identify unplanned ED visits or readmissions to other institutions. Primary analysis was to determine whether health literacy status measured using the BHLS was associated with unplanned healthcare use after discharge including 30-day ED visits and readmissions. The chi-square test was conducted for nominal data and student’s t-test for continuous data. A stepwise multivariate regression model was built to adjust for confounding variables. 300 patients were enrolled into the study and 264 patients were included in the final analysis. Of these, 175 (66.3%) had adequate health literacy and 89 (33.7%) had low health literacy. A total of 104 patients had unplanned healthcare use of either an ED visit or readmission within 30 days of discharge. Of these, 43 (41.3%) had low health literacy compared with 61 (58.7%) that had adequate health literacy (p=0.034). After multivariate logistic regression, low health literacy was identified as an independent predictor of 30-day unplanned healthcare use in the heart failure population. The BHLS is a validated health literacy assessment tool that can be quickly administered, requires minimal instructions, and could be incorporated into current clinical health-system workflow. According to the study results, the BHLS is a predictor of 30-day unplanned healthcare use following discharge and could be used to guide discharge planning and counseling. Future studies should explore interventions to mitigate risk of unplanned healthcare use within 30-days of discharge in patients evaluated to have low health literacy using BHLS assessment.

▼ In the United Kingdom (UK) there is easy access to a wide range of contraceptive methods, available at no cost. In addition, oral emergency contraception (EC) (1.5 mg levonorgestrel) is now widely available from the community pharmacy. In spite of this, unintended pregnancy is common. In 2014 in England and Wales, 184,571 induced abortions were performed, and in Scotland, the corresponding figure was 11,475. Long acting reversible methods such as contraceptive implants and intrauterine contraception, are amongst the most effective methods available and National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) recommends that increased uptake can lead to fewer unintended pregnancies. However, uptake of long acting reversible contraceptive (LARC) methods remains low. The majority of women who require to use EC do so following unprotected sex or an accident with a condom. Increasingly women in Great Britain prefer to attend a pharmacy for EC rather than a sexual and reproductive health (SRH) service or general practitioner (GP). Starting an effective on-going method of contraception after EC use is clearly important if women are to avoid unintended pregnancy. Community pharmacists in the UK and most other high income countries are usually unable to provide any on-going contraception except condoms. So we have created a situation where EC is provided almost solely from settings where other more effective methods of contraception cannot be immediately provided. Novel strategies are therefore required to facilitate both uptake and continuation of the most effective methods of contraception, in order to prevent unintended pregnancy for more women. This thesis presents a mixture of biomedical, clinical and health services research to evaluate a series of strategies aimed at improving uptake of the most effective methods of contraception. Two studies investigated patient knowledge and information provision relating to contraceptive methods. The first sought to determine if women held misconceptions about intrauterine methods of contraception, and revealed that although myths persist in a small number of women, a lack of knowledge about these methods was also evident. The second study aimed to determine if the use of a digital video disc (DVD) to provide contraceptive information was acceptable and informative to women, and identified that it is, and could possibly enhance patient consultations. Studies three, four and five investigated strategies aimed at increasing the uptake of effective on-going contraception, following emergency contraception provided from a community pharmacy, and patient and health care provider attitudes to such approaches. They showed that simple interventions such as supplying one month of a progestogen only pill (POP), or offering rapid access to a family planning clinic (FPC), hold promise as strategies to increase the uptake of effective contraception after EC and that both women and clinicians were positive about such measures. Additionally, the problems encountered in conducting these studies…

▼ Background: Prevention of unplanned pregnancy is a crucial aspect of preventing mother-to-child HIV transmission (PMTCT). However, we have little understanding of how HIV status and antiretroviral therapy (ART) may influence pregnancy planning. There are few data on pregnancy planning in HIV-infected South African women, and no comparative data with HIV-uninfected women. Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional study of 2105 pregnant women (1512 HIV-infected; 593 HIV-uninfected) ages 18-44 making their first antenatal clinic visit at a primary-level health care facility in Gugulethu, Cape Town. All women completed structured questionnaires including the London Measure of Unplanned Pregnancy (LMUP), a 6-item scale that categorizes pregnancies into planned, ambivalent and unplanned. Analyses examined LMUP results across 4 groups of participants: HIV-infected established on ART; known HIV-infected but not currently on ART; newly diagnosed HIV-infected; and HIV-uninfected. Results: Overall, the mean age was 29 years (SD: 5.63), 43% of women were married or cohabiting and 20% were nulliparous. The LMUP performed well across all groups (Cronbach's α=0.84). Levels of unplanned pregnancy were higher in HIV-infected versus HIV-uninfected women (50% vs. 33%, p<0.001); and highest in women not on ART. Overall, 69% of women reported contraceptive use in the year before pregnancy; this was strongly associated with unplanned pregnancy (p<0.001). Compared to HIV-uninfected women, HIV-infected women had significantly higher odds of unplanned pregnancy, even after adjusting for age, parity and cohabiting status. The odds were greatest among women newly-diagnosed with HIV and previously diagnosed but not on ART (OR: 1.43; 95% CI: 1.05-1.94 and OR: 1.56; 95% CI: 1.13-2.15, respectively). Increased parity and age <24 years were also associated with unplanned pregnancy (OR 1.83; 95% CI: 1.24-2.74 and OR 1.42; 95% CI: 1.25- 1.60 respectively). Conclusions: These data indicate high levels of unplanned pregnancy in a high HIV prevalence setting, highlighting missed opportunities for family planning and counselling services for HIVpositive women. Possible explanations for the high level of unplanned pregnancy observed include contraceptive failure and/or misuse thereof. Therefore, women living with HIV require additional support to avoid unplanned, particularly those who are younger and have one or more children. Advisors/Committee Members: Myer, Landon (advisor).

▼ In the United States, prominent racial/ethnic and socioeconomic disparities in rates of unintended pregnancy, abortion, and unintended births exist. Recent analysis suggests that Latinas are three times more likely to experience an unintended pregnancy than non-Latina white women. More than half of pregnancies among Latinas (53%) in the United States are unintended and have higher unintended births as they are less likely than black women to have an abortion. In addition, in 2006 the unintended pregnancy rate was highest among women aged 20-24. Little research has 0been conducted to understand unintended pregnancy particularly among young adult Latina women. The purpose of the study is to determine and understand the meaning of unintended pregnancy among Latina subpopulations and examine the perceived consequences and management of unintended pregnancy among Latina subpopulations. Between May 2012 and October 2012, twenty in-depth-interviews were conducted with U. S. born- Latinas between 18-25 years of age seeking a confirmation pregnancy test at clinics in which some provided abortion services. Latinas in the study's meaning of pregnancy came from their complicated life situations, and were facilitated by Latino cultural beliefs, such as fatalism, religiosity and familismo. Many held favorable and positive meanings of their unintended pregnancy, particularly those who continued their pregnancies to term. Consistent with several other studies, the act of deliberately trying to plan a pregnancy was foreign to many of these women, particularly because a pregnancy was something that should was not in their control and left up to God. Most of the Latinas in the study felt that women should not plan their pregnancies and doing so was going against fate and natural life course. Public health research overwhelmingly highlights the negative maternal and child health consequences of unintended, while many women in this study perceived the negative consequences of unintended pregnancy to be primarily emotional and social. The inquiry found stigma surrounding unintended pregnancy among Latinas in this study. More than half of the women in the study resorted to termination of their pregnancy and cited fears of family reaction, fears their partner would deny paternity or responsibility, and/or desires to continue schooling, community and societal attitudes toward an unintended pregnancy and religiosity, as influencing this decision. In addition, contributing to the stigma were the stereotypes of Latinas. Latinas decision to continue their pregnancies to term or have an abortion was provoked by diverse and interrelated factors. Although a few Latinas in the study stated their partner's had an influence on the pregnancy resolution decision, all Latina stated that ultimately they were in control over their pregnancy resolution decision. Even when Latinas partners did not agree with their decision, women still performed their intended pregnancy resolution decision. . Family planning services might benefit from intervention…

▼ Heart Failure readmissions (HFR) significantly contribute to all cause hospital readmissions rates. Current evidence on the effectiveness of interventions for reduction of HFR is inconclusive. Recent research suggests that nurses’ emotional intelligence (EI) may be associated with better patient outcomes. The purpose of this study was to examine if nurses’ EI is significantly related to HFR and if that relationship is mediated through patient satisfaction with care. One hundred and thirty six Registered Nurses were recruited from 11 in-patient units at a large teaching hospital in the south eastern United States. Two surveys were mailed to eligible participants; the Bar-On Emotional Quotient Inventory 2.0 and a demographic survey. Patient satisfaction was measured with the Hospital Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems (HCAHPS) survey. The unit of observation for the analysis of the current study was the individual nursing unit with monthly measures for 14 months. Nurses EI was assessed at a single point in time and served as the basis for the data collected. Results of one-way ANOVA showed a non-significant small trend of higher total EI being associated with lower rates of HFR. The generalized estimating equation model was used to account for correlated observations and revealed a greater non-significant likelihood for higher total EI to translate to no HFR. Results of Pearson’s correlations found non-significant positive correlations between nurses total EI and the patient satisfaction items of rate hospital, nurses’ courtesy and respect, nurse listening, nurse explaining, and nurse communication. The linear mixed model to account for correlated observations showed small non-significant trends for total nurse EI and all patient satisfaction items. Results of one-way ANOVA showed no association between patient satisfaction and HFR. When accounting for correlated observations, increases in total nurse EI were not significantly associated with the predicted odds of no HFR. In conclusion, the examination of the aims in this study demonstrated results that were in the expected direction but not at the level expected. The findings of this study indicate that there is a need to further examine how nurses’ EI may influence patient outcomes.

▼ Unplanned hospital admissions (UHA) in older adult populations are a recurring problem in older adults with cancer. Older adults comprise approximately 60% of cancer diagnoses and receive the majority of cancer treatment. However, little is known about why older adults under treatment for cancer experience a high number of unplanned hospital admissions. A review of the literature provided few study findings and a gap in the current knowledge was identified regarding the factors associated with unplanned hospital admissions in older adults under treatment for cancer. A conceptual framework based on the literature and this researcher's clinical experienced guided this study. The purpose of this study was to explore the factors related to unplanned hospital admissions and determine if one or more factors are predictive of unplanned hospital admissions of older adults with cancer. A convenience sample of 129 dyads of older adults with cancer and their family caregivers were approached and enrolled in the adult oncology outpatient infusion centers and inpatient units within a community cancer center in central Florida. Patient demographic and clinical data were obtained through a retrospective medical record review. Family caregiver demographic and side effect knowledge data was collected prospectively during interviews with family caregivers using a newly developed tool, Nurse Assessment of Family Caregiver Knowledge and Action Tool (NAFCKAT). The NAFCKAT contains 11 items to determine baseline knowledge about side effects and plan for managing side effects. A fever subsection consists of 4 knowledge and 2 action questions and a dehydration subsection consists of 2 knowledge and 2 action questions. Preliminary research was conducted to determine reliability and validity of the NAFCKAT. Excellent inter-reliability was found for the tool and preliminary support for validity was determined for the fever subscale. Descriptive statistics and logistic regression analyses were used to evaluate data collected from patient medical records and NAFCKAT scores. Study findings revealed that unplanned hospital admissions were more likely to occur when older adults had the presence of impaired function prior to treatment initiation and/or experienced side effects of infection /fever and vomiting/diarrhea during treatment. The presence of impaired function and family caregiver support (knowledge and availability) did not moderate the relationship between side effects and unplanned hospital admissions. Findings suggest that the presence of impaired function and side effects of infection and fever, and vomiting and diarrhea, predict unplanned hospital admissions in older adults during the active cancer treatment phase. Nurses should advocate for and conduct targeted assessments to identify the presence of functional impairments prior to cancer treatment initiation. In addition, nurses should actively monitor for the presence of cancer treatment-related side effects during the treatment phase of the cancer trajectory.

▼ The project mainly covers the effects of unplanned settlements on land use planning in Eldama Ravine town. The expression 'unplanned settlements' is used to refer to any uncoordinated settlement on land without reference to any predetermined standards of planning. Those who have occupied such settlements are interchangeably referred to as occupants, settlers or squatters. The research was based on the use of structured and unstructured interview schedule, informal discussions and . observation,as methods of data collection. The data collected has been analyzed and presented using description, tables, charts, maps, percentages and photographs which represent visual surveys. It was established that unplanned settlements existed in various contexts in terms of various structure and land uses. However the re searche r broad 1y c 1as s if i ed them accord in g to the forms of tenure ascribed to the land settled on. Thus unplanned settlements existed as squatters on government land, trust land, on leasehold and on freeholds. Furthermore the research unearthed that social, insti tutional, land and housing s up p ly deficit, speculative and opportunistic factors motivated the emergence of these settlements influenced land use planning according to various indicators. These included, land use conflicts, inefficient land uses, invasion of environment,uncoordinated land development and impediment of land use planning allocative freedom. The research identified aspects of unplanned settlements like, provision of conducive environment for initiation of projects, pressure on landowners to develop plots, kept planners on their toes and provided a market for goods and services while providing revenue for development. Finally the researcher has postulated a macro and micro level approach towards harmonization of unplanned settlements with land use planning practical ideals. This would necessitate both a national initiative to institute reviews and more specific and localized, action planning for the improvement of unplanned settlements

▼ The purpose of this research project was to determine if there was a significant difference between women who had unplanned pregnancies and the amount of information those women received about their pregnancy options regarding parenting, adoption, and abortion, and those who were not. Additionally, the level of information about pregnancy options, and whether it would reduce termination of pregnancies was examined. The aspects explored included the information available to clients and the decision making process for women who have experienced an unplanned pregnancy. The methods for this study involved using an anonymous survey via Survey Monkey. Additionally, this study examined the importance of clients being informed and the role information plays in the social work field. A detailed examination of the research which has been conducted in pregnancy options counseling and what that counseling consists of was conducted and discussed. An overview of "Woman’s Right to Know Laws" was also addressed and what theories have an impact on what woman experience during an unplanned pregnancy. Finally, an independent samples t-test was conducted to determine if there were significant differences between groups of women who had chosen to keep and parent their child, those who chose to have an abortion, and those who chose to relinquish their child for adoption and the amount of information they received about their pregnancy options. The study found a significant difference between women who chose to parent their children and women who iv chose to have an abortion in terms of the level of information they were provided about those options. The abortion group received significantly more information about abortion than the parenting group. This may be due to the type of information received being more about cost and recovery periods versus the actual abortion procedure and mental health concerns post-abortion. Based on the findings, most women know what they will do in the case of an unplanned pregnancy and only a significant intervention will change their course of action. Based on the findings, educating women about their pregnancy options will not change their decision to keep, abort or relinquish their child for adoption. Instead, prevention efforts are more effective in preventing abortion than providing them with information. Advisors/Committee Members: Cory Dennis.

▼ Nearly half of all pregnancies worldwide are unintended (41%).1 Among young women, this number is even higher. By the age of 20, one in three women in the United States will experience a pregnancy,1 and over 80 percent of these will be unintended.2,3 Ensuring that a woman is able to make the right choice for herself about whether to carry an unintended pregnancy to term is fundamental to her health and wellbeing. A woman’s decision to continue or terminate an unintended pregnancy has ramifications that affect her health, her educational, professional and personal aspirations, as well as the health and wellbeing of her children. 4-7 However, methodological limitations in our ability to measure unintended pregnancy and abortion, and our ability to study their causes, limit the effectiveness of interventions designed to improve women’s health.The first chapter of my dissertation introduces a novel methodological tool for the measurement of sensitive and stigmatized events: the list experiment. Validation studies suggest that the degree of underreporting of self-reported abortions is high. In countries where abortion is illegal, underreporting may be even greater. But without accurate estimates of the size of the population affected, effective policy and programs cannot be developed or targeted. This chapter describes results from a study of women of reproductive age in Liberia in 2013. To measure abortion prevalence, each woman was read two lists: A) a list of non-sensitive items, and B) a list of correlated non-sensitive items with abortion added. The sensitive item, abortion, was randomly added to either List A or List B for each respondent. The respondent reported a simple count of the options on each list that she had experienced, without indicating which options. Difference in means calculations between the average counts for each list were then averaged to provide an estimate of the population proportion that has had an abortion.The second chapter of my dissertation extends the work of the first chapter. I implement two multivariable regression estimators with the list experiment data to understand how age and education vary with history of abortion. We find that education and abortion are inversely associated, after accounting for age. The hope is to encourage other epidemiologists to utilize newly developed tools for multivariable regression estimation with list experiment data.The third and final chapter of the dissertation moves from measurement to analysis. The aim of this chapter is to introduce a causal inference framework to the family planning literature. I examine whether social support is causally linked to the incidence of undesired pregnancy among approximately 1,000 young women in Michigan. Using multivariable logistic regression, and an extension using standardization, I calculate relative and absolute estimates of the incidence of undesired pregnancy under two levels of social support. As a body of work, my dissertation introduces a novel measurement tool to the field toward the goal of more…

▼ Background: Emergency Department (ED) overcrowding occurs when the need for ED services outstrips available resources. Causes have been divided into input, throughput, and output factors, of which the last appear to be the most influential. Unavailability of inpatient beds (so-called “access block,” or “hospital crowding”) impairs ED output and is associated with increased waiting times in the ED, especially for patients awaiting hospital admission (“boarding”). Access block has also been suspected to induce an admission-bias, causing only the sickest patients to be admitted to hospital when hospital beds are scarce. The aim of this thesis was to evaluate whether access block affected the prioritization of the level of care in ED patients so that patients were less likely to be admitted to a hospital bed at times of access block than otherwise. Part V addressed whether more patients were triaged out of the ED at times of access block. Methods: In Part I, the proportion of hospital admissions among 118,668 visits to the ED, at a 420-bed emergency hospital in Region Skåne, Sweden, was compared across different levels of access block (measured as strata of in-hospital bed occupancy). Multivariate models were constructed to adjust for the effects of known confounders. In Part II, the appropriateness of ED discharges was addressed by comparing the proportion of unplanned 72h revisits to the ED across different levels of access block, for the 81,878 cases treated and released from the ED at index. In Part III, the outcomes evaluated in Parts I and II were addressed for 19,620 ED visits due to acute abdominal pain. Part IV was performed analogously to Part III, but for 12,223 ED visits due to chest pain. In Part V, the permeability of an ED front-end facility that triages patients of perceived low acuity out of the ED was compared across different levels of access block, for 37,129 visits to the facility. Results: In Part I, a negative association between access block and the probability of inpatient admission was observed (OR 0.67–0.81 at occupancy >105%, compared to at occupancy <95%), implying that patients were less likely to be admitted to the hospital at times of access block. Part II revealed no association between access block and the 72h revisit rate. The association detected in Part I remained for the study populations addressed in Parts III/IV. No association between access block and the 72h revisit rate was observed in patients with acute abdominal pain, but a negative association between the two was observed in patients with chest pain. ED length of stay in patients who were treated and released from the ED increased at times of access block, in Parts III/IV. Conclusion: ED patients were less likely to be admitted to a hospital bed at times of access block than otherwise, at the study site. The lack of an association with the 72h revisit rate could be interpreted as that the practice is safe, but since it fails to take into account rare, but fatal, outcomes such as mortality, future studies should address more…

▼ Recently, getting married for unplanned pregnancy seems common in Taiwan. On the one hand, it reduces premarital pregnancy stigma; on the other hand, giving birth out of wedlock still doesnât work. The percentage of giving birth out of wedlock in lots of developed countries is similar with the rate of getting married for unplanned pregnancy in Taiwan. Isnât non-marital birth a practical option in Taiwan? The institutional context of non-marital births is the core of the paper. The authors use data from the 1992ã1998ã2004 KAP ï¼Knowledge, Attitude, and Practice of Contraceptionï¼ and Department of Household Registration to analyze the behavior of marriage and childbirth in Taiwan. We distinguish the marriage and childbirth course into three approaches: getting pregnant after marriage, getting married for unplanned pregnancy, and giving birth out of wedlock. Our findings indicate that getting married for unplanned pregnancy aged 25-29 is 42.44% in 2004. The group of getting pregnant after marriage prefer to late marriage and late childbirth since 21st Century. Until now, the rate of marital births is more than ninety percent. For analyzing institutional context of non-marital births in Taiwan, the law institution, social policy, and the social values are the field to examine. We also adopt data of Taiwan Social Change Survey to analyze whether the attitude of marriage and childbearing exists differences between generations. Our findings indicate that law and social policy have no discriminatory towards non-marital births. However, cohabiting couples lacks legal protection. Overall, the childbearing support from social policy is not enough. Especially, double-income families are mainstream nowadays. That is to say the resources of original family are vital for âTaiwanese Life Eventsâ. Even though the genre of rearing children are similar between single-parent families and giving birth out of wedlock, the former have wider acceptance among the elder. 53.16% to 18.6%. In our viewpoint, rather than individualism, familism is center of obstetrical events in Taiwan. Probably, the Second Demographic Transition canât fully explain âTaiwanese Life Eventsâ. To elevate gender equality in family field is priority. Advisors/Committee Members: Hong-zen Wang (chair), Shu-Yung Wang (chair), Chang-Li Yang (committee member).

Introdução: A anticoncepção de emergência é um método contraceptivo usado após a relação sexual desprotegida. Apesar da sua alta eficácia e de estar disponível gratuitamente na rede pública de saúde, ainda é subutilizada. Objetivo: Identificar as razões e analisar os determinantes do não uso da anticoncepção de emergência quando indicada. Método: Estudo quantitativo, do tipo transversal, realizado com amostra probabilística de mulheres grávidas usuárias de 12 Unidades Básicas de Saúde da Supervisão Técnica de Saúde do Butantã, São Paulo (n=515), entre março e junho de 2013. O não uso da anticoncepção de emergência quando indicada foi considerado quando as mulheres eram classificadas como tendo gravidez não planejada ou ambivalente segundo o London Measure of Unplanned Pregnancy (n=366). No Stata 12.0, os dados foram analisados por meio de regressão logística multinomial. O grupo de mulheres que usou a anticoncepção de emergência para prevenir a gravidez em curso foi comparado com dois grupos: o de mulheres que estava usando algum método contraceptivo, mas não anticoncepção de emergência no mês em que ficou grávida, e o grupo de mulheres que não usou métodos contraceptivos nem anticoncepção de emergência nesse período. Resultados: Apesar da maioria conhecer a anticoncepção de emergência (96,7%), apenas 9,8% a usou para prevenir a gravidez em curso. A principal razão para o não uso foi pensar que não iria engravidar (47,6%). Outras razões, como querer engravidar/ter um filho no futuro e não pensar ou não se lembrar do método também foram amplamente referidas pelas mulheres. Os determinantes do não uso da anticoncepção de emergência para as mulheres que usavam métodos contraceptivos foram a não consciência do risco de engravidar [OR=3,44; IC95%: 1,48-8,03] e morar com o parceiro [OR=3,23; IC95%: 1,43-7,28]. Para aquelas que não usavam métodos contraceptivos, morar com o parceiro [OR= 3,19; IC95%: 1,40-7,27], gravidez ambivalente [OR: 3,40; IC95%: 1,56-8,54] e o não uso prévio do método [OR=3,52; IC95%: 1,38-8,97] foram associados ao não uso da anticoncepção de emergência. Conclusões: Viver com um parceiro pode fazer com que a mulher se sinta menos preocupada em evitar uma gravidez, ou seja, menos propensa a usar a anticoncepção de emergência. De toda forma, reconhecer as situações em que corre o risco de engravidar, saber por experiência própria como obter e usar o método e ter claras intenções reprodutivas podem aumentar o uso da anticoncepção de emergência quanto indicada

Introduction: Emergency contraception is a contraceptive method to be used after unprotected intercourse. Despite its high efficacy, availability both at primary health care and private pharmacies in Brazil, it is still underutilized. Objective: To identify the reasons and analyze the determinants of emergency contraception non-use when indicated. Method: Cross-sectional, quantitative study conducted with a probabilistic sample of pregnant women from 12 Primary Health Facilities at the Health Supervision of Butantã, São Paulo, Brazil (n=515),…

A gestação, o parto e o puerpério são saberes especiais no universo da mulher, do parceiro, da família e de sua comunidade. A gestação pode gerar diversos sentimentos, tais como: o de surpresa, o de castigo, o de prêmio, o de motivação para continuar a viver, o de realização de um projeto antigo, o de competição em família, o de problema, o de estorvo, o de descuido ou de irresponsabilidade. Confirmada a gravidez, a mulher, o parceiro e os familiares podem vivenciar diferentes reações diante dessa novidade. A reação inicial depende do desejo e planejamento da gravidez (gestação), podendo ser desejada, planejada, ou acidental, não planejada e, até mesmo indesejada. Gravidez não planejada é toda a gestação que não foi programada pelo casal ou, pelo menos, pela mulher. A sua ocorrência tem impacto importante na oferta de cuidados de pré-natal, na orientação sobre aleitamento materno, no estado nutricional infantil e nas taxas de morbimortalidade materno-infantil. Embora pouco estudada, a gravidez não planejada representa risco aumentado de ansiedade e de depressão, sobretudo no período puerperal. Tendo em vista estes aspectos, o objetivo deste estudo foi compreender como as gestantes vivenciaram/experienciaram uma gravidez não planejada e suas consequências à vida familiar/conjugal. O estudo baseou-se na metodologia de análise de dados qualitativos, na análise destes dados, utilizou-se a abordagem metodológica do Discurso do Sujeito Coletivo (DSC), por meio do software Atlas.ti. A população em estudo foi constituída de gestantes em idade fértil, entre 18 e 49 anos de idade, pois essa faixa etária assegura maioridade às mulheres. Foi utilizada para organizar os dados verbais, entrevista semiestruturada, realizada com 11 gestantes. Partindo dos depoimentos das gestantes copiados no software, a análise dos discursos teve início com a identificação das expressões-chave, nas quais estão contidas as ideias centrais de cada discurso que foram escritas de forma breve e objetiva. Foi evidenciado que as gestantes apresentaram reações iniciais negativas com relação à descoberta da gravidez não planejada, vivenciaram conflitos, devido ao medo de enfrentar a família, o companheiro e os pais. Também ficou evidente que a gravidez não planejada tem como principal consequência a problemática nos níveis biopsicossociais. Evidenciaram altos níveis de ansiedade, estresse e depressão no decurso da gestação. Quanto aos métodos contraceptivos, a maioria estava em uso quando da descoberta da gravidez. Considera-se que este estudo ganha relevância pelo impacto que exerce sobre o bem-estar pessoal, familiar e socioeconômico das mulheres e seus companheiros, em virtude das possíveis gestações não planejadas

Pregnancy, childbirth and the postpartum period are special knowledge in the world of woman\'s partner, family and your community. Pregnancy can cause many feelings, such as: the surprise, the punishment, the premium, the motivation to continue living, the realization of an old design, the competition…

Diante da importância que a gravidez não planejada vem adquirindo no cenário mundial, apesar da melhoria nas tecnologias contraceptivas e ampliação do acesso aos serviços de saúde e métodos contraceptivos, faz-se necessário mensurar com maior precisão este fenômeno. Por esta razão, pesquisadores da área de saúde sexual e reprodutiva têm procurado desenvolver medidas que possam oferecer estimativas confiáveis de mulheres que vivenciam a gravidez não planejada. A maior parte dos instrumentos utilizados para mensurar a gravidez não planejada são unidimensionais e não levam em consideração a parceria, a intencionalidade ou o uso de métodos anticonceptivos de forma simultânea, aspecto não observado no London Measure of Unplanned Pregnancy (LMUP), desenvolvido no Reino Unido. Nesse contexto, este estudo transversal tem como objetivo traduzir e adaptar o instrumento LMUP para a língua portuguesa e validar suas propriedades, visando à sua utilização como instrumento de mensuração de gravidez não planejada no Brasil. A adaptação cultural e validação do LMUP foram realizadas conforme o método preconizado pela literatura. O cenário de estudo foram unidades da rede de Atenção Básica do município de Marília-SP. A população de estudo foi composta por 126 mulheres com idade 18 e 42 anos, usuárias dessas unidades, que procuraram a Unidade para confirmação do diagnóstico da gravidez por meio de um teste imunológico para gravidez cujo resultado foi positivo. Os resultados obtidos demonstraram que em relação às propriedades psicométricas, o instrumento apresenta um valor de apha de Cronbach de 0,75 para a escala total. A análise fatorial exploratória dos componentes principais do instrumento LMUP na versão Português aqui apresentada resultou em um único fator, que explicou 66,5% da variância total dos dados. As propriedades psicométricas do instrumento foram demonstradas e, portanto ele pode ser utilizado para mensurar a gravidez não planejada na população brasileira.

Facing the impact that unplanned pregnancy is acquiring world wide, despite the improvement in contraceptive technologies and increasing access to health services and contraceptive methods, it is necessary to measure this phenomenon more accurately. For this reason, researchers in the sexual and reproductive health field have sought to develop measures that can provide reliable estimates of women experiencing unplanned pregnancies. Most instruments used to measure the unplanned pregnancy are unidimensional and do not take into account the partnership, the intent or the use of contraceptive methods simultaneously, a not observed aspect at London Measure of Unplanned Pregnancy (LMUP), developed in the United Kingdom. Thus, this cross-sectional study is aimed to translate and adapt the instrument LMUP to Portuguese and validate its properties, aiming at its use as an instrument for measuring unintended pregnancy in Brazil. Cultural adaptation and validation of LMUP were done according to the method recommended by the literature. The scenery for the study was units of the…
