A considerable body of empirical evidence exists on the demographic and socio-economic correlates of food insecurity in Australia. An important omission from recent studies, however, is an understanding of the role of stressful life events, or stressors in explaining exposure to food insecurity. Using nationally representative data from the 2014 General Social Survey and multivariable logistic regression, this paper reports on the association between 18 discrete stressors and the likelihood of reporting food insecurity in Australia. The results, adjusted for known correlates of food insecurity and complex survey design, show that exposure to stressors significantly increased the likelihood of experiencing food insecurity. Importantly, stressors related to employment and health approximately doubled the odds of experiencing food insecurity. The results underscore the complex correlates of food insecurity and indicates that conceptually it interacts with many important social and economic problems in contemporary Australia. There is no simple fix to food insecurity and solutions require co-ordination across a range of social and economic policies.
关于澳大利亚食物不安全的人口统计学和社会经济学相关因素，已经存在大量的实证证据。然而，最近的研究中有一个重要的遗漏，即没有理解压力性生活事件或压力源在解释接触食物不安全方面的作用。本文使用来自 2014 年一般社会调查的全国代表性数据和多变量逻辑回归，报告了 18 种离散压力源与澳大利亚报告食物不安全的可能性之间的关联。在调整了已知的食物不安全相关因素和复杂调查设计后，结果表明，接触压力源显著增加了经历食物不安全的可能性。重要的是，与就业和健康相关的压力源使经历食物不安全的可能性增加了近一倍。这些结果强调了食物不安全的复杂相关因素，并表明从概念上讲，它与当代澳大利亚许多重要的社会和经济问题相互作用。解决食物不安全问题并非易事，解决方案需要在一系列社会和经济政策方面进行协调。
