Abstract
This study attempts to develop measurement scales for women'sreproductive health and reproductive rights by using data from125 developing countries. Data were obtained from varioussources, such as the United Nations and the World Bank. Existing studies on women's reproductive rights suggest atwo-factor model. Women's reproductive health is viewed as beingunidimensional. These proposed attributes are evaluated usingconfirmatory factor analysis. Results indicate the presence oftwo sub-dimensions related to women's reproductive rights. Aone-dimension model of women's reproductive health is empiricallysupported. Validity and reliability of the scales are assessed.Limitations of the measurement scales are discussed.
