“…Despite these limitations, the consistency of our choice of method data with US national data for publicly funded family planning centers suggests that these findings are likely to be of considerable relevance to providers and public health policymakers, both in the US and elsewhere, who rely on similar national data sources 41. Distribution of provider-reported choice of method after the clinic visit was compared with a national provider-reported primary contraceptive method mix, in the Family Planning Annual Report 42.…”

National data on choice of contraceptive method and subsequent use are critical for monitoring progress toward meeting public health goals in reducing unintended pregnancy in the US. Yet few studies have focused on the reliability of clinically-reported or patient-reported measures of choice of contraceptive method for the range of available contraceptive methods. Among 1,844 women receiving reproductive health care at two federally funded centers in New York City, choice of contraceptive method at the end of the visit from two data sources was compared, ie, patient self-report, and provider-report as recorded in the clinical-administrative database. Agreement between the two data sources was assessed for the sample. Sociodemographic predictors of agreement were assessed using logistic regression. Agreement between the data sources was also assessed on a method-by-method basis using positive specific agreement. Participants were predominantly Latina (69%), foreign-born (76%), and low-income (99% with incomes <200% federal poverty level). Agreement of patient-reported and provider-reported contraceptive choice was highest for hormonal methods (positive specific agreement 94.0%) and intrauterine devices (89.9%), and lowest for condoms (53.5%). In the logistic regression model, agreement was lower among teens aged 16–19 years compared with women aged 25+ years (odds ratio 0.74; 95% confidence interval 0.55–0.99). Because teens are more likely to rely on condoms, the logistic regression model was repeated, adjusting for provider report of condom choice; after adjustment, no sociodemographic differences in agreement were observed. National data sources or studies relying on provider-reported method choice to derive estimates of contraceptive prevalence may overestimate choice of condoms. Our findings raise the question of whether condom choice can be accurately assessed by a single open-ended measure of choice of contraceptive method.

Research literature shows a weak negative relationship between Victimization and Trust, with higher levels of Victimization reducing trust in tourism destinations [32].

Tourism, as a pivotal industry globally, plays a vital role in economic development and cultural exchange. Northern and Central Luzon in the Philippines are prime destinations, offering diverse attractions to both international and domestic tourists. How the rapid growth of tourism in these regions brings forth challenges, most notably the risk of fraud, which can severely impact tourists experiences and trust in the destination. This research examines the factors that influence the susceptibility of domestic tourists to fraud in Northern and Central Luzon and its ramifications for the tourism industry. Utilizing a descriptive survey approach and questionnaires, the researchers collect data on various dimensions, including the socio-demographic profile of domestic tourists, their awareness of fraud, impulsiveness, trust tendencies, social support, and self-control. Our initial findings reveal that domestic tourists are equally vulnerable to various forms of fraud when exploring these enticing destinations. Importantly, the level of victimization experienced by tourists significantly affects their trust in tourism destinations, with implications for the local economy. Our research also indicates that domestic tourists possess awareness of fraud risks and knowledge of its forms, though this awareness does not necessarily translate into resistance against fraudulent activities. This study underscores the urgency of addressing fraud in Northern and Central Luzons tourism industry, highlighting its potential impact on the regions reputation and economic prosperity. While domestic tourists are cognizant of fraud risks, further investigation is needed to comprehend the underlying factors contributing to their vulnerability and to develop strategies for enhancing social support and self-control as protective measures, ultimately fostering a safer and more trusted tourism experience in this vibrant and culturally rich region.

“…It has been found that men who tend to assign contraceptive responsibility to women have more negative attitudes towards male contraceptive use [35]. The use of contraceptives among women and the factors that influence their use have been examined [4]. The factors include: being in a relationship, number of sex partners, pregnancy status, sexual activity status, age and social class.…”

This work considers a population divided into two groups according to the adoption of contraception. The campaign in favour of contraception is modelled as a bounded optimal control problem within the framework of the logistic and the Malthusian models of population dynamics. The control is the fraction of non-adopters successfully educated on contraception. The objective is to maximise the number of non-adopters successfully educated on contraception over time. The optimisation problem is solved using the Pontryagin's maximum principle and the parameters of the model are estimated using the method of least squares.
