Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Male involvement in the family planning in Ghana is not very much encouraging as most men see family planning as a woman’s activity or responsibility. The main objective of the study was to assess the involvement of males in family planning at Tema General Hospital. The study design for this research was the cross-sectional study design. A total of 110 participants were recruited for the study, out of which 100 were men in the community and 10 were staff of the Family Planning unit of Tema General Hospital. Attendance register was also reviewed from 2015 – 2017. It was seen that attendance of males to FP clinic have been increasing gradually over the years – 596 (2015) to 695 (2017). Factors that were indicated to influence FP attendance were spear-headed by shyness and low level of knowledge and then followed by negative family perception. It can be concluded that, male involvement in family planning is not encouraging despite a gradual increase over the past three years.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
