Literature regarding decision Sample Clauses

Literature regarding decision making power and nutrition Due to the complexity of defining and assessing decision-making and the fact that decision-making is only one aspect of a mother’s full autonomy, it is not surprising that authors report varied results both in the items used to define decision-making and the impact those specific decision-making measures have on childhood nutritional status. The reason mother’s decision-making autonomy can influence childhood nutritional status and child growth may be due to the differing priorities men and women have on resource allocation, with women, being primary caregivers, more likely to invest in food and care of their children (Xxxxxxx et al., 2009). A mother’s autonomy allows her the ability to control and access these resources which affect the nutrition children receive and impacts their growth (Xxxxxx et al., 2009). Since decision-making is essential for the mother’s ability to provide care, her nutritional status is also an important contributor to child nutritional outcomes as depicted in the WHO framework (see Supplemental Figure 1), as it can serve as a reflection of her decision-making power and ability to fully invest in the care of her child(xxx). For example, a study in Ethiopia, using EDHS data, aimed to observe the link between woman’s empowerment and her own nutritional status. They grouped women into low, medium, and high decision-making autonomy based on questionnaire responses (Tebekaw, 2011). When comparing the percentage of chronic energy deficit (CED) to the number of decisions women have a final say in, the researchers observed the highest percentage of CED in women (35.7%) when husbands had final say in all decisions compared to 6.6% CED when women had final say in all decisions (Tebekaw, 2011). Another study, using DHS data from Zambia, Zimbabwe, and Malawi found a significant association between decision-making autonomy and CED in Malawi. Women in areas where HIV/AIDS and drought have constrained household resources were asked a series of decision- making questions (Xxxxxx, 2006). Researchers found that with each additional decision made by the partner, women would have higher odds of CED (1.08, CI 1.02, 1.15) and when women made all decisions the odds of CED was even greater (2.88, CI 1.42, 5.83) which could be due the possibility of women taking care of multiple family members as this is an HIV/AIDS prevalent area among other reasons (Xxxxxx, 2006). Several studies also explore the association between maternal d...
