Declarations
:
: The 2018 ZDHS protocols including methodology and all questionnaires were approved prior to implementation by national and international Institutional Review Boards (IRBs) at the Tropical Diseases Research Centre (TDRC) in Zambia and at ICF International (ZamStats et al., 2019). During data collection, informed consent to participate in the survey was obtained from all eligible men selected. As such, no ethical clearance and informed consent to participate was obtained. Although this data included human subjects, data analysis was based on secondary data and permission was granted to us by DHS Program for us to use the 2018 male ZDHS dataset (ZMMR71FL) in Stata format. The data provided was anonymized by the DHS Program. In addition, no potentially identifying information is part of this dataset. The data was utilized in accordance with all the rules governing its usage.
