| Abstract: | Abstract : This study has been undertaken to investigate the psycho-social factors of teenage pregnancy in Rongai Sub County, Kenya. In particular, the study determined psycho-social factors associated with adolescent pregnancies in Rongai Sub County, Nakuru County, Kenya. Research in Kenya on the impact of psycho-social adolescence shows that despite government efforts, little research and writing has been conducted on the topic. Therefore, this study sought to address this research gap by investigating the psycho-social factors of teenage pregnancy in Kenya. The study adopted a descriptive cross-sectional study design. Using a purposive sampling technique and a single population formula, a sample size of 411 adolescent girls between the ages of 15 and 19 were involved in this study. Primary data was obtained from the information in the questionnaires distributed to the pregnant adolescents and interview guides from the research assistants. The questionnaire was pilot-tested on the five sub-themes that helped to improve the instrument while exploratory factor analysis was used to extract factors with a reliability value of 0.70. Factor loadings that were less than 0.70 were discarded. Data were collected using a modified, pre-tested structured questionnaire with a reliability coefficient of 0.74, adopted from the WHO standard tool (developed by John Cleland) designed to assess the psycho-social impact of adolescent pregnancy. Cronbach's alpha coefficient was used to determine reliability during the pilot study. The Study employed a combination of descriptive and inferential statistics to establish the degree of association among the variables. At the same time, Chi-squire and multinomial logic regression analysis was used to establish the relationship between the variables . The results were processed with the SPSS 25 version and were presented using tables and figures. Results were interpreted at a 95% confidence level. The findings of the study indicated there was a significant effect of the Psychosocial variables on adolescent pregnancy. The Study recommended the effective implementation of teenage pregnancy legislation, rules policies, and regulations to mitigate psycho-social effects of pregnant adolescents in Kenya.
