The aim was to determine the possible association between food insecurity and the sociodemographic conditions of families in the rural area of Pueblo Nuevo, Córdoba, Colombia. It was a cross-sectional study using surveys to collect sociodemographic and food insecurity data in a rural area of Pueblo Nuevo, Córdoba, Colombia in which 391 families were surveyed to obtain relevant information. The Latin American and Caribbean Food Security Scale (ELCSA) survey was applied to evaluate the food security of the families. A descriptive analysis of qualitative and quantitative variables, and polyserial correlations to establish relationships between food insecurity and sociodemographic variables was held. Only 5 families (1%) showed adequate food security (AFS), while 235 families were in the severe food insecurity (SFI) category. Positive correlations were observed between types of food security and educational level (P<0.023), family income (P<0.001), and household size (P=0.002). A high prevalence of food insecurity was evident in the studied families, influenced by household size, lack of income, and low educational levels.
本研究旨在确定哥伦比亚科尔多瓦省普韦布洛新镇农村地区粮食不安全状况与家庭社会人口状况之间可能存在的关联。这是一项横断面研究,通过调查收集哥伦比亚科尔多瓦省普韦布洛新镇农村地区的社会人口和粮食不安全数据,共对391个家庭进行了调查以获取相关信息。应用拉丁美洲和加勒比粮食安全量表(ELCSA)调查来评估家庭的粮食安全状况。对定性和定量变量进行了描述性分析,并采用多系列相关性分析来确定粮食不安全与社会人口变量之间的关系。只有5个家庭(1%)表现出充足的粮食安全(AFS),而235个家庭属于严重粮食不安全(SFI)类别。在粮食安全类型与教育水平(P<0.023)、家庭收入(P<0.001)和家庭规模(P=0.002)之间观察到正相关。在所研究的家庭中,粮食不安全状况普遍存在,受家庭规模、收入不足和教育水平低的影响。
