The objectives of this study were to assess data on the consumption frequency of some food items and the places they are purchased, especially by adults and elderly subjects, and finally to determine their food preference using cluster and correspondence analyses as a diagnosis and prevention factor.
Cross-sectional study.
Town of Serranópolis do Iguaçú, State of Paraná, Brazil, city with 4,854 inhabitants of which 22% are over 50 years old.
Two hundred and ninety five randomly selected subjects (96 men and 199 women), between 51 and 91 years old.
A socio-demographic and food frequency questionnaire was applied via home visits including questions on socioeconomic, anthopometric and health characteristics concerning the consumption frequency of 45 food items and the places they were purchased, using a five point category scale to obtain consumption data as well. The body mass index (BMI) was calculated using the Quetelet Index and compared with the World Health Organization Report Consultation on obesity. The cluster and correspondence statistical analysis were used to determine their food preference.
From the correspondence mapping (which explained 89.1 % of the variance), it was possible to determine aspects regarding the non-consumption of instant soups, frozen vegetables, cookies, crystallized fruits, canned fruit, distilled drinks and beer.
The dimensional representation structure demonstrated that the population of Serranópolis, who were 62 % overweight, preferred high fat content products, suggesting a reevaluation of their eating habits in the expectation of preventing non transmissible chronic diseases. The value given to farm production in Serranópolis do Iguaçú was also observed.
本研究的目的是评估一些食物的消费频率数据以及这些食物的购买地点，尤其是针对成年人和老年人，最后使用聚类和对应分析来确定他们的食物偏好，作为诊断和预防因素。
横断面研究。
巴西巴拉那州塞拉诺波利斯-杜伊瓜苏镇，该镇有 4854 名居民，其中 22%的居民年龄在 50 岁以上。
随机选择 295 名年龄在 51 至 91 岁之间的受试者（96 名男性和 199 名女性）。
通过家访应用社会人口统计学和食物频率问卷，包括有关 45 种食物消费频率和购买地点的问题，使用五分制类别量表获取消费数据。体重指数（BMI）使用奎特利指数计算，并与世界卫生组织肥胖问题磋商报告进行比较。使用聚类和对应统计分析来确定他们的食物偏好。
从对应映射（解释了 89.1%的方差）中，可以确定关于不消费速食汤、冷冻蔬菜、饼干、蜜饯水果、罐装水果、蒸馏饮料和啤酒的方面。
人口的维度表示结构表明，超重 62%的塞拉诺波利斯居民更喜欢高脂肪含量的产品，这表明需要重新评估他们的饮食习惯，以预防非传染性慢性疾病。还观察到塞拉诺波利斯-杜伊瓜苏对农场生产的重视。
