Ethics approval and consent to participate
: The present study was the secondary analysis of existing public domain (2014 Tanzania GSHS) survey dataset that is available online with all identifier information detached. The Tanzania 2014 GSHS was approved by both the Tanzania Ministry of Health and Social Welfare (MoHSW) (currently Ministry of Health, Community Development, Gender, Elderly and Children /MoHCDGEC) and Ministry of Education and Vocational Training (MoEVT) (currently Ministry of Education, Science and Technology /MoEST). Therefore, the ethical approval for the present study analysis was automatically deemed unnecessary. The written assent attached to a questionnaire was obtained from eligible participants before filling the questionnaire. Survey procedures were designed to protect student privacy by allowing for anonymous and voluntary participation. Students were clearly explained that they were free not to participate and also not to respond to any question on the questionnaire.
