Ogbe, Joseph O.
Contemporary Issues in Early Childhood, v11 n3 p313-318 2010
The purpose of this study was to stimulate action to address and identify maternal, child and community needs towards the improvement in health of pregnant women, children and communities. Four null hypotheses were generated from the research questions while multiple regression analysis was used to analyse the data. The study found that household size and water availability were not predictive of maternal or child mortality in Delta State, Nigeria. (Contains 2 tables.)
