Background
- Human trafficking is a global human rights violation with significant health and social consequences in Africa.
- Combating domestic human trafficking is hindered by a lack of knowledge regarding influencing factors.
Purpose Of The Study
- To conduct a scoping review to collate and synthesize literature on factors influencing domestic trafficking within African countries.
- To identify and analyze the relative weight of factors contributing to domestic human trafficking in Africa.
Main Methods
- Utilizing Arksey and O'Malley's framework and PRISMA-ScR guidelines for a comprehensive scoping review.
- Systematic literature search across PubMed, CINAHL, Web of Science, and Scopus databases.
- Discourse analysis and fuzzy cognitive mapping to synthesize and visualize influencing factors and their relationships.
Main Results
- The project is funded and commenced in March 2024, with results anticipated by March 2025.
- Two research staff members have been recruited to conduct the scoping review.
- Data extraction and analysis will focus on identifying and weighing factors influencing domestic human trafficking.
Conclusions
- The review will offer a comprehensive understanding of factors driving domestic human trafficking in Africa.

Migration is long-range, seasonal movement from one region or habitat to another. This common strategy, carried out by many different organisms around the world, is an adaptive response that typically corresponds to changes in an organism’s environment, like resource availability or climate. Migrations can involve huge groups of thousands of animals as well as single individuals traveling alone and can range from thousands of kilometers to just a few hundred meters.
Why Animals Migrate
In a study where individuals posing as strangers offered compliments and proposed casual sex to students, the responses differed significantly based on gender. Not a single woman accepted the proposal, while 70% of the men agreed. This outcome provides a useful scenario to explore through the lens of evolutionary psychology and social learning theory, highlighting the diverse perspectives on human sexual behaviors.
Evolutionary psychology provides one explanation for these findings, suggesting...
Today, scientists agree that good research is ethical in nature and is guided by a basic respect for human dignity and safety. However, this has not always been the case. Modern researchers must demonstrate that the research they perform is ethically sound.
Research Involving Human Participants
Any experiment involving the participation of human subjects is governed by extensive, strict guidelines designed to ensure that the experiment does not result in harm. Any research institution that...
According to some social psychologists, people tend to overemphasize internal factors as explanations—or attributions—for the behavior of other people. They tend to assume that the behavior of another person is a trait of that person, and to underestimate the power of the situation on the behavior of others. They tend to fail to recognize when the behavior of another is due to situational variables, and thus to the person’s state. This erroneous assumption is...
Primary motives such as sleep, sex, and pain avoidance are crucial drivers of behavior in humans and animals. These motives ensure survival, reproductive success, and overall well-being by prompting actions that meet essential bodily needs.
Sleep is a fundamental physiological drive that fosters a state of restfulness crucial for several bodily functions. It facilitates body restoration, the process by which the body repairs, rejuvenates, and maintains itself during sleep, including memory...
Humanistic psychology emerged in the mid-20th century as a response to the deterministic and pessimistic nature of behaviorism and psychoanalysis. While behaviorism focused on observable behaviors influenced by the environment and psychoanalysis delved into unconscious motivations, both theories suggested that human actions lacked free will. In contrast, humanistic psychology offers a perspective that emphasizes the innate potential for goodness and growth within every individual.
