Introduction to the LDM: Where & How?




                               Goal: to identify a few critical behaviors
                                   that could accelerate improvements in
                                 nutrition status that are more likely to be
                              affordable, acceptable, and sustainable because
                               some members of the community are already
                                              practicing them.1

                                                                  4
Why was the LDM developed?

                                  Local Determinants of
  Positive Deviance Inquiry
                                   Malnutrition (LDM)

 Qualitative                  Quantitative
 Observational                Measures the strength of
 Nuanced                       association
                               Accounts for confounding
LDM Methodology

 Population                      Case Control
 o Ideal population: 12 to 24        o Cases: PD children
   months of age                     o PD: at least ≥ -1 SD WAZ/HAZ
 o Actual population: 12 to 36       o Malnourished: at least ≤ -2 SD
   months of age                       WAZ/HAZ




                                 6
LDM Methodology (cont.)

 Sampling
 o 45 PD and 45 malnourished caregivers (minimum)
 o 80% power, 0.05 alpha, 35% proportion
 o Random sample of communities, from a weighted convenience
   sampling frame with convenience sampling at the community level
 o 8-12 communities with ~12 interviews in each

                        Project area



                                        Convenience sample within 2-3
                                        hour radius of training facility

                • Training Center
                                    7
LDM Tool Development

 Survey tool includes 4 domains

Worldview & Maternal                                     Income
Depression

Childcare & Care                              Feeding practices
                                                     (pregnancy,
Seeking Behaviors                        breastfeeding, and child)


 Currently 81 questions, editing to 40 questions
 Developed by Tom Davis and Phil Moses based on an
 exhaustive literature review

                             8
LDM Analysis

  Outcome:                PD/Malnourished
                          Dichotomous
  Exposure variables:     Indicators within 4 domains
                          Continuous and Dichotomous

 Analyzed using EpiInfo 3.5.3
 Tests for interaction and confounding
 Data entry at the field level but
  analyzed by HQ




                              9
Limitations

 Based upon a convenience
    sampling frame
   Quantitative method may miss
    nuances of a qualitative study
   Challenges finding a reliable
    wealth/equity variable
   Detection of counter-intuitive
    findings
   Ration-dependent environments

  • 5. LDM Methodology  Population  Case Control o Ideal population: 12 to 24 o Cases: PD children months of age o PD: at least ≥ -1 SD WAZ/HAZ o Actual population: 12 to 36 o Malnourished: at least ≤ -2 SD months of age WAZ/HAZ 6
  • 6. LDM Methodology (cont.)  Sampling o 45 PD and 45 malnourished caregivers (minimum) o 80% power, 0.05 alpha, 35% proportion o Random sample of communities, from a weighted convenience sampling frame with convenience sampling at the community level o 8-12 communities with ~12 interviews in each Project area Convenience sample within 2-3 hour radius of training facility • Training Center 7
  • 7. LDM Tool Development  Survey tool includes 4 domains Worldview & Maternal Income Depression Childcare & Care Feeding practices (pregnancy, Seeking Behaviors breastfeeding, and child)  Currently 81 questions, editing to 40 questions  Developed by Tom Davis and Phil Moses based on an exhaustive literature review 8

  1. Developed in 2003 and used in 7 countries (6 Africa, 1 LA; Moz ‘04, Kenya ‘05, Bolivia ‘07, Ethiopia ‘08, Burundi ‘09, South Sudan ‘11, DRC ‘12)Based on interviews of mothers of PD and malnourished children and compares their responsesThe goal of the tool, like other PD approaches, is to identify a few critical behaviors that could accelerate improvements in nutrition status that are more likely to be affordable, acceptable, and sustainable because some members of the community are already practicing them.Marsh D and Schroeder D, The positive deviance approach to improve healthoutcomes: experience and evidence from the field—Preface.

Quantitative PDI tool that is easy and affordable to be implement at the field levelChallenges with Qualitative studies in the fieldTable with PDI and LDM comparisonQualitative/ QuantitativeLDM can measure the strength of association and account for confoundingPDI studies are more observational and nuanced
  5. PopulationIdeal age is 12- 24m, but with reality/ time limitations LDM age range is usually 12-36mCase ControlDefinition of cases: PD mothers, weight cut-offs are context specific at least >=-1SD for PD children and <=-2 SD WAZ or HAZ for malnourished childrenSampling45 PD /45 Malnourished (80% power, alpha = 0.05, 35% proportion)Random sample of communities, pulled from a weighted convenience sampling frame; with convenience sampling at the community level8-12 communities, with approximately ½ day each community per team and about 12 interviews in each community (6 PD/ 6 Malnourished)

  7. Covers 7 areas or domains: 1) household income, mother’s income, and income generating work; 2) child feeding practices; 3) childcare practices (including hygiene practices); 4) care seeking behaviors; 5) feeding practices during pregnancy and breastfeeding; 6) worldview; and 7) maternal depression.Currently 81 questions (1.5 hours), desire to move to <=40 questions (45m) Developed by Tom Davis and Phil Moses based on exhausted literature review to determine (a) determinants, (b) the strength of those determinants, (c) the feasibility of measurement, and (d) ability to change the behavior.
  8. At this point analysis is conducted at the HQ levelUsing Epi 3.5.3Determinants are run as dichotomous and/or continuous exposures and tested for confounding
  9. Convenience sample frameQuantitative missing nuances of QualitativeWealth/equality variableCounter-intuitive findings
  10. Meant to find key issues (same as intro)For example, in Kenya (2005) the LDM found that ‘mothers of malnourished children were away from their child an average of 6.7 hours per day vs. 5.0 hours for mother of PD children.’ As a result, the FH team investigated barriers to spending more time with children using qualitative methods.For example, in DRC (2012) the LDM found that ‘mothers of malnourished children were 4.5 times more likely to have introduced semi-solid/mashed foods late (at 9 months of age or after) than mothers of PD children.’ As a result, the Care Group curriculum about complementary feeding was revised to highlight the importance of introducing thick, nutritious porridge or mashed foods at 6 months.Introduction of the discussion guide
