摘要
The determinants of contraceptive method choice in Zimbabwe are examined within the context of a structural equations model that controls for both supply and demand factors that can influence the choice. The data set used in the empirical work is the 1989 Zimbabwe Demographic and Health Survey. Among the policy related variables that have contributed to Zimbabwe's highly successful programme, the multivariate results reveal the importance of wife's education, husband's education, family planning messages, and the presence of a community based distributor of contraceptives.
