For each procedure, women answered two questions that measured perceived (i) receipt of information about the benefits and risks of the procedure and (ii) role in decision-making about the procedure.
Finally, our results reveal a number of differences by demographic characteristics in perceived barriers and receipt of workplace accommodations.
It is important to note that support perceptions (perceived support) and receipt of supportive behaviors (received support) are different characteristics.
Data were collected on socio-demographic characteristics, sexual behavior, perceived stigma, and receipt of ART through face-to-face interviews, conducted in Swahili by trained interviewers.
For social loneliness, gender, number of family categories met weekly, number of non-family members met twice weekly, activity, perceived community integration, and receipt of community care were all significant; for emotional loneliness, GARS and informal care receipt were significant.
Subjects also completed a 14-item survey containing demographic questions, perceived ease of injection, receipt of prior training, and preferred training format for organophosphate treatment.
Being male, being widowed, low well-being, low self-esteem, low-income comfort, low contact with family, low contact with friends, low activity, low perceived community integration, and receipt of community care were significant predictors of social loneliness (R = 0.50, R = 0.25, F(18, 979) = 18.17, p < 0.001).
We found that low levels of contact with family and friends and low levels of activity were uniquely associated with social loneliness (for a review, see Routasalo & Pitkala, 2003; see also Dykstra & Fokkema, 2007), as were low perceived community integration and receipt of community care.
The most cited reasons by mothers for not receiving the CSG at all at the time of final follow-up were not possessing an identity document (26%), and not qualifying for receipt because of perceived high financial status (28%).
