“…Residing with their mother increase the probability of preferring a large family size. This result confirms the finding of Snopkowski and Sear (2016) in Indonesia, that residing with mother is positively associated with women's childbearing behaviour.…”

“…Younger women might still have a longer reproductive span and expect to have an additional child as compared to their older counterparts. Meanwhile, for co-residence status, Snopkowski and Sear (2016) found that living co-residence with mother is positively associated with their daughter's childbearing behaviour.…”

The literature shows that children born in a large family tend to adopt the same family norm as their parents. This similarity may occur because values, norms, as well as reproductive behaviours are transmitted from parents to their offspring whereby this transmission may determine the fertility rate. For Indonesia, given that the family planning program has successfully halved the fertility rate, yet for the last decade, it remains at 2.6 children per woman. Such phenomenon shows that even though most women have adopted small family norm, but a sizeable share continue to have more than two children. This study aims to examine the effect of mother's fertility behaviour on woman's reproductive intention. Ever-married women aged 15-49 years old in 2014 who have information about their biological mother are analysed by using data from Indonesian Family Life Survey. Zero-inflated Poisson regression model is used to estimate the transmission effect. The sample is stratified by parity. The results show that mother's fertility is not associated with childless woman's fertility intention, but with higher parity woman. Women with many siblings tend to have more children. This finding supports the presence of intergenerational transmission of family norm in Indonesia.

“…Generalised structural equation modelling relaxes the constraints of structural equation models (SEM) by allowing for continuous, binary, ordinal, count, and multinomial modelling of dependent variables and allows for interactions between independent variables. SEM cannot demonstrate causality, and the results should be interpreted as correlations; however, it does allow one to determine whether the hypothesised causal pathway is plausible or not [53]. Nonetheless, there are some disadvantages in GSEM.…”

Does delivery in private hospitals contribute largely to Caesarean Section births? A path analysis using generalised structural equation modelling

Background The rate of Caesarean Section (CS) deliveries has shown an alarming rise in recent years. CS is a surgical procedure used when there is apprehension of risk to the life of mother or baby in case of vaginal delivery, but its rates higher than 10-15 per cent are not justifiable. It is well recognised that a CS delivery could have a large number of adverse impacts on women and infants. Several studies, especially in developing countries, have revealed that delivery in private hospitals is one of the most contributing factors in CS deliveries. The present study conceptualises a causal pathway in which the possible risk factors, socioeconomic , maternal and pregnancy-related, as well as institutional, influence the chances of CS delivery. It is hypothesised that certain factors would contribute to CS deliveries largely indirectly through the place of delivery, that is, either a public or private institution. Methods and findings To test the hypotheses, this study analysed 146,280 most recent live births delivered in hospitals during the five years preceding the fourth round of India's National Family Health Survey (NFHS-4), carried out during 2015-2016. The analysis, using generalised structural equation modelling (GSEM), revealed that many exogenous variables considered in the path models influence CS deliveries significantly, directly and/or indirectly through the place of delivery factor. Prominent among these are wealth index and receiving ANC services at only private hospitals; the total effects of these variables are even higher than the direct/total effect of place of delivery. Conclusion From this finding, it could be said that the place of delivery is a proximate determinant of a CS delivery or a mediator of other co-factors. Interventions to curb higher CS deliveries

Di samping itu, grandparental dalam keluarga dapat meningkatkan kesehatan dan kesejahteraan anak (Snopkowski & Sear, 2015). Dalam suatu penelitian lainnya, ditemukan pula bahwa kakek-nenek memiliki efek langsung pada prestasi cucu-cucu, salah satu penjelasannya adalah bahwa cucucucu dapat mengambil manfaat dari sumber daya budaya yang diberikan kakek-nenek kepada mereka (Bol, & Kalmijn, 2016).…”

Being grandparents is an important role and valued in the family in which family members have a certain view of the existence of grandparents in the family especially about what will be taught to their grandchildren. When grandchildren have disability, grandparents form a special expectation of themselves and grandchildren resulting on adjustment in the interaction process with grandchildren. This study aims to explore how the interaction between grandparents and grandchildren with disabilities can influence the formation of self-identity and the role of grandparents in the family. The study used a qualitative method, semi-structured interviews were conducted on 10 grandparents of children with intellectual and/or physical disabilities located in Semarang, Central Java, obtained through purposive sampling techniques. An Interpretative Phenomenology Analysis resulted in three main themes, namely: the formation of a grandfather's self-identity, the role of grandparents, and the assessment of the development of their grandchildren. The results highlight the important role of grandparents when a child has a disability, which illustrates that the grandparents' experience and role in the family vary, depending on the child's disability and the context of each family.
