Resumo: The main objective of this article is to study how a set of socioeconomics characteristics impacts the probability of occurrence of different levels of the food insecurity in Brazil. This is performed taking into consideration the informational complexity of the Brazilian Scale of Food Insecurity (EBIA). Our hypothesis, which are tested through a generalized ordered logistic model, is that the explanatory variables offer asymmetric effects regarding the different categories of food insecurity measured by the EBIA. The results confirm that hypothesis, pointing out that it is important to consider the complexity involved in the food insecurity phenomenon to discuss public policy.

A hipótese que avaliamos, através da proposta de aplicação de um modelo logístico ordenado generalizado, é a de que se observam efeitos assimétricos das variáveis explicativas em relação às diferentes categorias de insegurança alimentar da EBIA. Os resultados confirmam essa hipótese, alertando para a importância de se considerar a complexidade desse fenômeno na elaboração de políticas públicas nessa área.Departamento de Ciências Econômicas da UFMG2021-02-03info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionhttps://revistas.face.ufmg.br/index.php/novaeconomia/article/view/5239Nova Economia; Vol. 30 No. 3 (2020); 969-998Nova Economia; v. 30 n. 3 (2020); 969-9981980-53810103-6351reponame:Nova Economia (Online)instname:Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais (UFMG)instacron:UFMGporhttps://revistas.face.ufmg.br/index.php/novaeconomia/article/view/5239/3275Copyright (c) 2021 Ely José de Mattos, Lorenzo Luiz Bianchi, Camila Horst Toigohttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessMattos, Ely José deBianchi, Lorenzo LuizToigo, Camila Horst2021-02-03T20:50:24Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/5239Revistahttps://revistas.face.ufmg.br/index.php/novaeconomiaPUBhttps://revistas.face.ufmg.br/index.php/novaeconomia/oai||ne@face.ufmg.br1980-53810103-6351opendoar:2021-02-03T20:50:24Nova Economia (Online) - Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais (UFMG)false
