Using sequence and cluster analysis of contraceptive calendar data from the 2016\u201317 Burundi Demographic and Health Survey, we identified discrete clusters characterizing patterns in women\u2019s contraceptive and pregnancy behaviors over the previous 5 years. This study pairs these clusters with data on factors typically targeted in social behavior change interventions: knowledge, attitudes, and women\u2019s interactions with media and health services, to create composite profiles of women in these clusters. Of six clusters, three are characterized by contraceptive use and three are characterized by its absence. Media exposure and attitudes regarding sex preference, wife beating, and self-efficacy largely do not explain cluster membership. Contraceptive knowledge is positively associated with two clusters (Family Builder 1 and Traditional Mother) and negatively associated with a third (Quiet Calendar). Clusters also differ in their members\u2019 fertility desires, contraceptive intentions, and interactions with health services. Two \u201cFamily Builder\u201d clusters are both characterized by the presence (but not timing) of multiple pregnancies in their calendar histories, but differ in that women with high contraceptive knowledge, intentions to use contraception, and well-articulated family size ideals are characteristic of one cluster (Family Builder 1), and low contraceptive knowledge, no use of contraception, and vague family size preferences are characteristic of the other (Family Builder 2). These results can guide reproductive health programs as they target social and behavioral change and other interventions to the unique subpopulations they seek to serve.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1371\/journal.pone.0271944","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,7,27]],"date-time":"2022-07-27T17:43:04Z","timestamp":1658943784000},"page":"e0271944","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1371\/journal.pone.corrections_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["Women\u2019s contraceptive profiles in Burundi: Knowledge, attitudes, and interactions with media and health services"],"prefix":"10.1371","volume":"17","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2855-9370","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Kerry L.
