Omschrijving
Samenvatting:Increased fertility rate in developing countries has prompted new discussions about the role of religious doctrine and religious institutions in shaping sexual behaviour. This caused this author to write on the effect of religion on utilisation of family planning methods. The aim of this study is to explore different religious beliefs and how they influence utilisation of family planning. This study will use the health belief model. This model attempts to explain and predict health behaviours. This will be a quantitative study. A group of 50 women in the reproductive age will be used as the sample will be asked questions using a questionnaire. The study will be conducted in Traditional Authority Chikowi. Data will be analysed using the statistical package for social scientists.
