"This thesis aims to answer the question, “What effects does rural-to-urban migration in\r\nEthiopia and Nigeria have on the fertility ideals of women?”. As fertility intentions and\r\nbirth rates remain high in Sub-Saharan Africa, significant research attention has been\r\ngranted to the fertility transition and the continued uncertainty about the future\r\ntrajectories of fertility and population dynamics of countries in this region. However, less\r\nresearch has focused on the interplay between internal migration, fertility, and\r\nurbanization. This research uses comparative descriptive analysis and multinomial\r\nlogistic regression analysis to explore the effect of migration status, individual\r\ncharacteristics, economic factors, and dimensions of female empowerment on fertility\r\nideals in Ethiopia and Nigeria. The countries were selected as they have large and\r\ngrowing populations and represent heterogeneity in sub-regional characteristics\r\nconcerning the fertility transition, internal migration, and urbanization. Fertility ideals\r\nwere chosen as the focus of the study as they can be used as an indicator for future\r\nfertility behavior. Data used for the analysis were obtained from the Demographic and\r\nHealth Standard Surveys. The analysis reveals mixed results. Differences in fertility\r\nideals across migration status are not statistically significant in Ethiopia; however, in\r\nNigeria, rural-to-urban migrants appear to adhere to the social norms of their\r\nupbringing. Determinants of fertility, such as educational attainment, wealth, and female\r\nempowerment, moderate the relationship between ideal fertility and internal migration in\r\nboth countries. The regression further reveals significant differences in fertility ideals\r\nacross cultural groups."^^ . "2022" . . . . . . . "M.L.C."^^ . "Pohl"^^ . "M.L.C. Pohl"^^ . . . . . .
