Abstract

The primary aim of the study is to understand factors influencing uptake of antenatal HIV testing among pregnant women in Nigeria. To do so, the Andersen behavioural model of healthcare service use is adapted to antenatal HIV testing use (secondary aim) and then applied to achieve the study primary aim. Guided mainly by scientific review of past literature, the adapted Andersen behavioural model (AABM) comprises of the three traditional explanatory measures namely, the predisposing, enabling and need factors as well as the HIV stigma and desire for HIV testing (the newly introduced concepts). The empirical analysis employs a multilevel modelling approach using the 2013 Nigeria Demographic and Health Survey with a sample size of 5,164 pregnant women who gave birth between 2011 and 2013, attended ANC during the pregnancy and were offered HIV testing.
