This study aims at investigating social, economic and demographic\ndeterminants of voluntary childlessness in Myanmar. Voluntary childlessness is\ndefined as currently married women who have no living children and use any\ncontraceptive method. The data used in this study were secondary data obtained from\nthe 2015-16 Myanmar Demographic and Health Survey (MDHS). The weighted\nsample of currently married women were 7759 but only 283 voluntary childless\nwomen among them were included in this study. Firstly, descriptive statistics was\nused to point out social, economic and demographic characteristics for currently\nmarried women, voluntary childless women and spatial variation of voluntary\nchildless women in Myanmar. Yangon Region and Rakhine State had the highest\npercentage of voluntary childlessness. Then, the Pearson Chi-square test was applied\nto examine the association between social, economic and demographic characteristics\nand voluntary childlessness. Educational attainment of women and their husbands,\nwoman’s employment status, occupation of women and their husbands, wealth\nquintile, woman’s age, husband’s age, age at first marriage, marital duration and place\nof residence were independent variables. According to the Pearson Chi-Square test,\nthey were significantly related to voluntary childlessness. In addition, binary response\nmodels such as logit, probit and complementary log-log models were applied to\ninvestigate social, economic and demographic determinants of voluntary childlessness\nand the most appropriate model was chosen by using model selection criteria. It was\nfound that the complementary log-log model was most appropriate model. Based on\nthe findings, woman’s educational attainment, husband’s educational attainment,\nwoman’s employment status, woman’s occupation such as skilled manual and\nunskilled manual, fourth and highest wealth quintiles, age at first marriage and place\nof residence were more likely and significant determinants to be voluntary\nchildlessness. Woman’s age, husbands at age groups except (35-39), marital duration\nfor 5-9 years were less likely and significant determinants to be voluntary\nchildlessness."}]}, "item_1583103120197": {"attribute_name": "Files", "attribute_type": "file", "attribute_value_mlt": [{"accessrole": "open_access", "date": [{"dateType": "Available", "dateValue": "2022-11-19"}], "displaytype": "preview", "download_preview_message": "", "file_order": 0, "filename": "Win Naing Oo, Stats.,4PhD-Ah-2, 13-9-2022.pdf", "filesize": [{"value": "1.2 MB"}], "format": "application/pdf", "future_date_message": "", "is_thumbnail": false, "licensetype": "license_0", "mimetype": "application/pdf", "size": 1200000.0, "url": {"url": "https://meral.edu.mm/record/8360/files/Win Naing Oo, Stats.,4PhD-Ah-2, 13-9-2022.pdf"}, "version_id": "6fcdf5d4-d100-471e-9997-29f24f1a030e"}]}, "item_1583103233624": {"attribute_name": "Thesis/dissertations", "attribute_value_mlt": [{"subitem_awarding_university": "Yangon University of Economics", "subitem_supervisor(s)": [{"subitem_supervisor": "Dr. Aye Thida"}]}]}, "item_1583105942107": {"attribute_name": "Authors", "attribute_value_mlt": [{"subitem_authors": [{"subitem_authors_fullname": "Win Naing Oo"}]}]}, "item_1583108359239": {"attribute_name": "Upload type", "attribute_value_mlt": [{"interim": "Other"}]}, "item_1583108428133": {"attribute_name": "Publication type", "attribute_value_mlt": [{"interim": "Dissertation"}]}, "item_1583159729339": {"attribute_name": "Publication date", "attribute_value": "2022-09-01"}, "item_title": "Childlessness Among Married Women in Myanmar", "item_type_id": "21", "owner": "20", "path": ["1582965742757"], "permalink_uri": "https://meral.edu.mm/records/8360", "pubdate": {"attribute_name": "Deposit date", "attribute_value": "2022-11-19"}, "publish_date": "2022-11-19", "publish_status": "0", "recid": "8360", "relation": {}, "relation_version_is_last": true, "title": ["Childlessness Among Married Women in Myanmar"], "weko_shared_id": -1}
