“…The 59.8% of women with on-time IUD removal in this study was much higher than in a clinical case series of 150 menopausal women undergoing IUD removal in a county maternal and child health hospital in Guizhou province, 14 but the different study designs do not allow direct comparison. No previous studies have examined correlates of knowledge about IUD removal in rural Chinese women, although barriers to providing high-quality health education in rural township family planning facilities have been described 23,24 . Previous studies of women still having IUDs after menopause have suggested that lower income and not holding a formal job may be risk factors, but not educational attainment 10,13…”

Risk factors for delayed intrauterine device removal among menopausal women in rural China

Objective: More women in China have received intrauterine devices (IUDs) than in the rest of the world combined. Recent reports have recognized a growing problem of delayed removal of these IUDs after menopause, especially in rural China, but few studies have examined women's knowledge and other risk factors for delayed removal.Methods: A total of 1,014 perimenopausal and postmenopausal women aged 45 to 64 years participating in a pilot program providing free IUD removal in rural China completed a questionnaire. We examined their knowledge about when IUDs should be removed and other demographic and reproductive health characteristics and the association of these factors with whether their IUD removal was on time or delayed using bivariate contingency analysis and multivariate logistic regression.Results: A total of 40.2% of women were having their IUDs removed more than 2 years after menopause, and 67.9% did not know the correct time for IUD removal. Women who were older, less educated, had one child, had their IUD placed in a rural facility, and with no gynecological examination in the past 2 years were less likely to know when an IUD should be removed. In multivariate analysis, knowledge, the facility where the IUD was placed, and a recent gynecological examination were independent predictors of on-time removal. At least 170 women had received a gynecological examination after menopause without the IUD being removed at that time.Conclusions: Lack of knowledge about timing for IUD removal and structural barriers in health service organization must be addressed to improve care for millions of women with IUDs in rural China.

“…The questions were primarily drawn from the ANES, including several questions that have been asked for many decades and thus are especially relevant for thinking about implications of mode shifts for comparability over time. Moreover, we have included items that have been scrutinized in previous research comparing ANES self-administered online samples and interviewer-administered in-person samples (e.g., Liu andWang, 2015, Abrajano andAlvarez, 2018).…”

“…Some work finds more item non-response (Lesser et al, 2012) or more straightlining in self-administered than intervieweradministered modes, while others find no differences (Vavreck, 2014). Examinations of the 2012 ANES documented mode differences in non-response, but with item non-response patterns varying across substantive topics; the in-person sample had lower non-response rates on abortion questions, but higher non-response on the gay rights questions compared to the online sample (Liu and Wang, 2016;Liu 2018). And while several studies have found higher levels of socially stigmatized attitudes and behaviors in self-administered surveys compared to intervieweradministered surveys (for a summary of this work, see Baker et al, 2010), others detect minimal differences (Haan et al, 2017).…”

Rising costs and challenges of in-person interviewing have prompted major surveys to consider moving online and conducting live web-based video interviews. In this paper, we evaluate video mode effects using a two-wave experimental design in which respondents were randomized to either an interviewer-administered video or interviewer-administered in-person survey wave after completing a self-administered online survey wave. This design permits testing of both within- and between-subject differences across survey modes. Our findings suggest that video interviewing is more comparable to in-person interviewing than online interviewing across multiple measures of satisficing, social desirability, and respondent satisfaction.

We investigated the content of survey items to assess whether and how racist and sexist stereotypes are woven into the fabric of research on attitudes about abortion in the U.S. We collected and analyzed a comprehensive set of survey items (456 items from 80 studies) used in peer-reviewed research published from 2008-2018 in representative and non-representative studies of U.S. respondents. Our analysis was guided by historical narratives that have been influential in shaping representations of women and reproduction in the U.S. (e.g., the Moynihan Report, 1965). With this background, we developed three themes pertaining to how individuals' attitudes about abortion are measured: we found that items rely on (1) moral, (2) sexual, and(3) financial evaluations of women seeking abortion care. These themes highlighted implicit and explicit judgments of women, including representations of them as unwilling to partner with men and as fiscally and sexually irresponsible. We argue that survey items meant to objectively assess abortion attitudes draw on negative racial and gender stereotypes and that these
