Compliance with ethical standards

:

: As this study involved only secondary analyses of the NIDS dataset, separate ethical approval for this study was not necessary. However, ethical approval for NIDS was granted by the University of Cape Town (UCT) Commerce Faculty Ethics Committee. The NIDS data collectors administered a written informed consent process with all participants, and only proceeded with interviews once this process was complete and they were satisfied that the participant fully understood all aspects of the research. In the case of minors, adult caregivers provided consent on their behalf.

: Nicole De Wet-Billings and Sasha Frade have no conflicts to disclose.
