      ab: A study was conducted to examine attitudes surrounding the continuation of female circumcision in the Sudan.

Girls most likely to be circumcised were typically the daughters of women who were commonly thought of as more traditional: those who had married early, who had little or no schooling, and who were married to husbands with little or no schooling.
