Spatial Distribution and Determinants of Nonautonomy on Decision Regarding Contraceptive Utilization among Married Reproductive-Age Women in Ethiopia: Spatial and Bayesian Multilevel Analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Studies conducted to date in Ethiopia did not explore the spatial distribution, individual-level, and community-level factors affecting women's nonautonomy on decision to use contraceptives. Hence, this study aimed to assess the spatial distribution of women's nonautonomy on decision regarding contraceptive utilization and its determinants in Ethiopia.

Methods

Data were accessed from the Demographic Health Survey program official database website (https://dhsprogram.com). A weighted sample of 3,668 married reproductive-age women currently using contraceptives was included in this analysis. Bayesian multilevel logistic regression models were fitted to identify the determinants of women's nonautonomy on contraceptive utilization. Adjusted odds ratio with 95% credibl
