  1. Note: Ref reference group, aOR Adjusted Odds Ratio, Cred. I Credible Interval, estimates were based on informative Bayesian approach with multilevel logistic regression modelling. An informative prior distribution for the regression coefficients was constructed by first fitting separate Bayesian multilevel logistic regression models with non-informative priors (mean = 0, variance = 10,000) to each of the 2004, 2007 and 2011 BDHSs; AIC, Akaike Information Criterion; BIC, Bayesian Information Criterion; ICC, Intra-class correlation. +Women living in a community consisting of only women in the top three wealth quintiles were categorized as living in a “middle-to-richest” community; all other women were categorized on the basis of the proportion of household in their community in the lowest two wealth quintiles: low (25%), moderate (26–50%) and high (> 50%).
