Malnutrition-associated risk factors have been studied in Upper Volta following a multivariate statistic analysis performed with a computer (Manova). The multiple correlation coefficients for 7 predictors were 0.14 for the children and 0.34 for the women. Results show that the nutritional situation worsens when the density of the population leads to an over exploitation of the land in the North West. Two different life-styles, i.e. cattle breeding and agriculture determine strikingly different nutritional situations among women and children. Family factors are also important to the nutritional status of the children.
在上沃尔特，通过计算机进行多变量统计分析（多变量方差分析）后，对与营养不良相关的风险因素进行了研究。7个预测因素的多重相关系数，儿童为0.14，女性为0.34。结果表明，当人口密度导致西北部土地过度开垦时，营养状况会恶化。两种不同的生活方式，即畜牧养殖和农业，在妇女和儿童中导致了截然不同的营养状况。家庭因素对儿童的营养状况也很重要。
