The study examined the prevalence of two related sensitive characters: induced abortion and multiple sexual partners among women of Akure, the state capital of Ondo state, Nigeria using improved randomized response technique (RRT) for two sensitive attributes (IRRT2). Also, the direct method of data collection was used in collecting information on the two sensitive characters, these were further compared with the IRRT2. A wide gap was noticed between the two methods as response rate increased tremendously with the use of IRRT2. The data collected also confirm the fact that RRT is far more efficient than direct method
