To describe the main characteristics of the diet of Marrocan immigrants in the Autonomous Community of Madrid, and to explore the factors that may influence their selection of foods.
Cross-sectional study. Two-stage cluster sampling of 179 immigrants.
Health Area number 6 of the Autonomous Community of Madrid.
Marrocan immigrants, older than 14 years of age who had lived in Spain more than 3 months.
Personal interview including a 24-hours recall of food consumption. Descriptive analysis and logistic regression using SPSS 8.0 for Windows.
The factors that have a larger influence in the food consumed are the age of the person, whether the person lives in a couple or not, and whether the person is able to read and write in Spanish. Gender and number of years living in Spain had very limited or no influence in the food items referred to as consumed by the person. Conclusions. The results of our study contrast with findings from studies conducted in other countries. The diet of the immigrants in our study would seem to become more varied and balanced, and therefore improve, with the progression of the acculturation process, with age and in people who live with their partners. People who have migrated recently have a less varied diet and may be proned to suffer nutritional deficiences.
描述马德里自治区摩洛哥移民的饮食主要特征,并探究可能影响其食物选择的因素。
横断面研究。对179名移民进行两阶段整群抽样。
马德里自治区第6健康区。
年龄超过14岁、在西班牙居住超过3个月的摩洛哥移民。
个人访谈,包括24小时食物摄入回顾。使用SPSS 8.0 for Windows进行描述性分析和逻辑回归。
对所食用食物影响较大的因素是个人年龄、是否已婚以及是否会西班牙语读写。性别和在西班牙居住的年限对个人所提及的食用食物项目影响非常有限或没有影响。结论。我们的研究结果与其他国家的研究结果形成对比。随着文化适应过程的推进、年龄增长以及与伴侣共同生活,我们研究中移民的饮食似乎变得更加多样和均衡,从而得到改善。近期移民的饮食种类较少,可能容易出现营养缺乏。
