How to calculate the SWPER for a specific survey The equation used to estimate individual standardized scores for each of the PCA j components is given by: ̅
⋯ ̅

where Sij are the individual standardized scores for individual i and component j; x1j,…, x15j are the individual values for variables x1-x15 included in the PCA analyses; are the standard deviations of the predicted scores of each component j. The weight given to each of the 15 variables in each component j is defined as: 2 Where is the PCA loading for each of the variables in each domain j and deviation of each variable in the combined dataset. By using simple algebra, we can simplify the equation above to: ∑

Please, follow the next steps to calculate the standardized individual SWPER scores for any African country of your interest1: 1. Recode variables The first step is to recode the variables as it is shown in Table S5, below. 1.1. Imputation of woman’s age at first birth To procced the imputation of age at first birth for nulliparous women, we used single hotdeck imputation. This method randomly selects the value to be imputed for a missing case from a group of individuals that are similar to it in terms of a variable or a group of variables. In this case, women were clustered in groups of age at first cohabitation. This variable was selected because it had the highest correlation with age at first birth, and other variables did not add much predictive power in a regression model. Despite the current preference for multiple imputation, we used a single imputation approach because procedures for principal component analysis with multiple imputation data are not commonly available, and the percentage of missing information was not so high that overall variance would be significantly reduced by use of single imputation. 2. Calculate the individual scores Using the equations below, it is possible to estimate the scores for the three SWPER domains:

∑ 1.818
5.360
∑ 1.475
0.857
∑ 1.417
