  13. Focus Group Facilitator Guide

  14. Sample Consumer Survey Questions • Is this your first visit to this clinic? • Yes • No • Geographic setting where clinic is located: • Rural • Small Town (<10,000 population) • City (10,000 – 99,999 population) • Urban (100,000-499,999population) • Metropolis (>500,000 population)

  15. For the purpose of this study, we define natural family planning (NFP), also called fertility awareness methods (FAM) as family planning methods that rely on identifying potentially fertile days in each menstrual cycle when intercourse is most likely to result in a pregnancy. • Has a health care provider ever told you about natural family planning for preventing pregnancy (birth control)? • Yes • No • Has a health care provider ever told you about natural family planning for trying to get pregnant (planning a pregnancy)? • Yes • No

  16. Using a seven (7) point scale where 1 means “strongly disagree” and 7 means “strongly agree” respond to the following statements about natural family planning. • I understand when the fertile time (most likely to get pregnant) of the menstrual cycle is for women who have regular cycles. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7

  17. The most fertile time of the menstrual cycle (time when a woman is most likely to get pregnant) : • About 7-10 days after the first day of menstruation • About 12-14 days after the first day of menstruation • About 18-21 days after the first day of menstruation • None of the above • Don’t know or not sure

  18. Qualitative Analysis Plan • Focus group proceedings will be taped and then transcribed • Loaded into Atlas • Initial codes assigned (using contructs from TPB) • Data grouped • Themes organized • Initial analysis verified by facilitators

  19. Quantitative Analysis Plan • SPSS • Descriptive Statistics
