From the results of this study, it is evident that related further researches are necessary. Some areas are suggested below:

i. As the current research is restricted only to female workers in tertiary institutions, future studies could focus on determinants of health behaviour among secondary schools teachers in southwestern Nigeria.

ii. Future research could consider including other determinants of reproductive health

159

behaviour among physically challenged women in southwestern Nigeria.

iii. A longitudinal study can also be carried out on the determinants of reproductive health behaviour among pregnant women in southwestern Nigeria.

iv. A study of factors influencing reproductive health behaviour among HIV/AIDS women in southwestern Nigeria is also a viable area.

v. Socio-cultural factors influencing the reproductive health behaviour of refugees‘

women in southwestern Nigeria can also be explored.

vi. The determinants of health behaviour among women in Nigerian armed forces in southwestern Nigeria could also be investigated.
