It has considerable health impacts on the physical, social, and psychological status of individuals in communities suffering from food insecurity.

This cross-sectional study was conductedon 300 subjects (132 male and 168 female) selected randomly in the Asadabadi area of the northwest of Iran.The method is validated using the structural validation approach.
