Validation of the contraception-focused Preference-aligned Fertility Management Index in Uganda and Nigeria
The contraception-focused PFM Index is a novel person-centered, rights-based measure that can be used to gauge whether individuals' self-defined needs related to contraception are met by programs and policies. Our study finds evidence for construct validity of the index among contraceptive users in Nigeria and Uganda and nonusers in Uganda.
