Abstract

ABSTRACT We aimed to identify whether single mother in poverty is a risk factor for household food insecurity, anxiety, and poor quality of life and whether extreme poverty modifies this association. The study included 545 pregnant women or mothers with a monthly per capita income less than half the minimum wage. Single mother is associated with anxiety and poor quality of life in the psychological, physical, and social relationship domains, compared to mothers with a partner. Single mothers in the situation of extreme poverty had higher odds of having trait anxiety and a lower quality of life in the psychological domain.

巴西贫困单身母亲：对孕妇和产后妇女生活质量和焦虑的影响

摘要：我们旨在确定贫困中的单身母亲是否是家庭粮食不安全、焦虑和生活质量差的风险因素，以及极端贫困是否会改变这种联系。这项研究包括545名孕妇或月人均收入低于最低工资一半的母亲。与有伴侣的母亲相比，单身母亲在心理、身体和社会关系领域与焦虑和生活质量差有关。处于极端贫困状况的单身母亲患特质焦虑的几率更高，心理领域的生活质量更低。

期刊介绍： The Journal of Poverty is the first refereed journal to recognize the inequalities in our social, political, and economic structures, presenting progressing strategies that expand society"s increasingly narrow notions of poverty and inequality. The journal"s broad understanding of poverty—more inclusive than the traditional view—keeps the focus on people"s need for education, employment, safe and affordable housing, nutrition, and adequate medical care, and on interventions that range from direct practice to community organization to social policy analysis. The journal"s articles will increase your knowledge and awareness of oppressive forces such as racism, sexism, classism, and homophobia that contribute to the maintenance of poverty and inequality.
