All of the women in the Ghanaian sample were married, as were a majority from the China sample (98.2%), and in the U.S. sample, a smaller yet significant percentage of the women (76.8%) were married. Educational variables were assessed slightly differently in Ghana than in China and the U.S., making it difficult to compare across countries. That said, it is clear that the U.S. sample included women with higher levels of education than both China and Ghana (p < .001). Ghanaian women in our sample had Table 2 illustrates the health-related variables assessed across the three samples. Note that while the number of pregnancies was not significantly different across the three groups, the number of previous deliveries was significantly different at p < .001.
