Setting and Sampling Sample Clauses

Setting and Sampling. The location of this investigation was in Soweto, South Africa, the southwest township of Johannesburg. It is estimated that over 1.5 million individuals inhabit the area, most of who are black Africans (GeoNames). Although there is a range of housing situations, the area is primarily characterized by poor infrastructure and high unemployment. Soweto is most internationally known for it’s historical political movements during the apartheid (Johannesburg). The Birth to 20 (BT20) cohort and is the largest and longest running study of child and adolescent development on the African continent. During a seven week period in 1990, 3,273 children were born in public hospitals in the Johannesburg-Soweto area and recruited for a longitudinal study. Over the last 20 years, these children and their families have been monitored by research staff. Attrition over two decades has been comparatively low (30%), mostly occurring during children’s infancy and early childhood. Approximately 2,300 children and their families remain involved with the study. The sample is roughly representative of the demographic parameters of South Africa with equal numbers of male and female participants (Xxxxxxx et al., 2007). The present study was conducted from May to July 2012 in Soweto, South Africa. Participants were purposively sampled from a subset of fifty BT20 cohort members who had been randomly selected and recently participated in the cohort’s periodic Young Adolescent Health Survey (YAHS). Participants were chosen from this subset based on their gender (14 female/9 male), and whether or not they had utilized health services within the last six months (13 users/10 non-users) (Table 1). All participants were either 21 or 22 years of age and were ethnically Zulu.
