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 https:\/\/www.fao.org\/measuring-hunger\/en.\n\nThe FIES-based indicators are compiled using the FIES survey module, containing eight 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 in the downloads tab. Disaggregating results at sub-national level is not encouraged because estimates will suffer from substantial sampling and measurement error.","coll_dates":[{"start":"2024-06-21","end":"2024-08-06","cycle":""}],"nation":[{"name":"Slovakia","abbreviation":"SVK"}],"geog_coverage":"National","analysis_unit":"Individuals","universe":"Non-institutionalized adult population (15 years of age or older) living in households.","data_kind":"Sample survey data [ssd]","notes":"The FIES survey module includes the following questions to compute the FIES-based indicators:\n\nDuring the last 12 months, was there a time when, because of lack of money or other resources:\n\n1.

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 3.5 percentage points.
