Indicator 2.1.2, \u201cPrevalence of moderate or severe food insecurity based on the Food Insecurity Experience Scale (FIES)\u201d, provides internationally-comparable estimates of the proportion of the population facing difficulties in accessing food. More detailed background information is available at http:\/\/www.fao.org\/in-action\/voices-of-the-hungry\/fies\/en\/ .\n\nThe FIES-based indicators are compiled using the FIES survey module, containing 8 questions. Two indicators can be computed:\n1. The proportion of the population experiencing moderate or severe food insecurity (SDG indicator 2.1.2),\n2. The proportion of the population experiencing severe food insecurity.\n\nThese data were collected by FAO through the Gallup World Poll. General information on the methodology can be found here: https:\/\/www.gallup.com\/178667\/gallup-world-poll-work.aspx. National institutions can also collect FIES data by including the FIES survey module in nationally representative surveys.\n\nMicrodata can be used to calculate the indicator 2.1.2 at national level. Instructions for computing this indicator are described in the methodological document available under the \"DOCUMENTATION\" tab above. Disaggregating results at sub-national level is not encouraged because estimates will suffer from substantial sampling and measurement error.","coll_dates":[{"start":"2020-12-02","end":"2021-02-23","cycle":""}],"nation":[{"name":"Argentina","abbreviation":"ARG"}],"geog_coverage":"National coverage","analysis_unit":"Individuals","universe":"Individuals of 15 years or older with access to landline and\/or mobile phones.","data_kind":"Sample survey data [ssd]","notes":"This dataset contains demographic variables related to number of adults and children in the household, age, education, area (urban\/rural), gender, and income.

Within each explicit stratum (province) in the case of landline, sample of specified size was drawn using pure Random Digit Dial (RDD) procedures. Sampling was done independently within each stratum. In the case of mobile, sample was specified size was drawn using pure RDD procedures independently from within each stratum. All sampled landline and mobile phone numbers were pre-screened for working status.\nFor respondents contacted by both landline and mobile telephone, random respondent selection within the household was done by enumerating all adults 15 or older in the household and randomly selecting one. Respondents contacted by mobile telephone were screened for those aged 15 and older; no additional selection procedure was performed.\nFor the purpose of data collection, the total initial sample was split into random subsamples (replicate samples) and released sequentially based on the progress of interviewing in different strata. The goal was to release an optimum amount of sample each time to achieve a high response rate while completing the targeted number of interviews within the field period.\nExclusions: NA\nDesign effect: 2.3","coll_mode":["Landline and Mobile Telephone"],"weight":"The sample data was weighted to minimize bias in survey-based estimates. The weighting procedure was formulated based on the sample design and was carried out in multiple stages. A probability weight factor (base weight) was constructed to account for selection of telephone numbers from the respective frames and correct for unequal selection probabilities as a result of selecting one adult in landline households and for dual-users coming from both the landline and mobile frame. At the next step, the base weights were post-stratified to adjust for non-response and to match the weighted sample totals to known target population totals obtained from country level census data.","cleaning_operations":"Statistical validation assesses the quality of the FIES data collected by testing their consistency with the assumptions of the Rasch model. This analysis involves the interpretation of several statistics that reveal 1) items that do not perform well in a given context, 2) cases with highly erratic response patterns, 3) pairs of items that may be redundant, and 4) the proportion of total variance in the population that is accounted for by the measurement model.","method_notes":"As part of the statistical disclosure control process, values for number of children and number of adults that were 10 or above, were recoded as \"10+\" and categories for area were combined into \"urban\/suburbs\" and \"towns\/rural\"."},"analysis_info":{"sampling_error_estimates":"The margin of error is estimated as 4.7.
