    (university of eloued جامعة الوادي, 2020-01-01) A. O., . Adepetun
    In this paper, randomized response technique was adopted to determine the proportion of female undergraduates at the Federal University of Technology Akure that have had yeast infection at a point in time, the age range that has the most number of yeast infection cases as well as the female hostel with the highest number of yeast infection cases. Questionnaires were used to collect data from the respondents. Z-tests were used in hypothesis testing. All comparisons involving randomized response data used the estimated proportion of girls with yeast infection and the sampling variance to calculate the z-score. The results of the study indicated that Jadesola female hostel has the most number of yeast infection cases proportion 99.8% while the proportion of yeast infection cases in Jibowu hostel is 66.8%. The result also shows that 90% of the female undergraduates between the age range of 16 and 18 years contracted the infection.

    CONTRACEPTIVE USAGE AMONG UNDERGRADUATE FEMALE STUDENTS: A SURVEY SAMPLING APPROACH
    (university of eloued جامعة الوادي, 2020-09-01) A. O., . Adepetun
    In this paper, a survey sampling on contraceptive usage among the female undergraduates of Federal University of Technology, Akure using the randomized response technique proposed by Warner [1] was extensively carried out. The data for the study was obtained from the administration of well-structured survey questionnaires on respondents from three different schools in the University. Consequently, the estimated Warner’s proportions of female undergraduate students who used contraceptives and their resulting variances were evaluated at varying sample sizes and predetermined probabilities 𝑃 respectively. The results as presented in the summary table 10 revealed that contraceptive usage was at maximum level for School of Agriculture and Agricultural Technology as sample sizes varied.
