摘要

本文调查了两个营养变量的空间分布情况：2016 年玻利维亚 339 个城市的妇女肥胖率和儿童慢性营养不良率。该研究利用《2020 年玻利维亚可持续发展目标市镇地图集》中的数据，采用了地理分布、空间依赖和区域化等空间分析方法来理解空间在营养挑战中的作用。研究结果表明，玻利维亚妇女肥胖率和儿童慢性营养不良率都具有很强的空间依赖性。具体而言，东部城市及其邻近地区的妇女肥胖率较高，而西部地区则是儿童慢性营养不良的集中地。考虑到这些差异，本调查认为，通过聚类分析，可以根据这两个营养变量的分布情况将玻利维亚划分为 18 个地理区域。本文还讨论了研究的局限性和未来的研究方向。

Mapping obesity in women and chronic malnutrition in children across the municipalities of Bolivia: Spatial clusters and regionalization

This paper investigates the spatial distribution of two nutritional variables: obesity prevalence in women and chronic malnutrition prevalence in children across 339 municipalities in Bolivia in 2016. Using data from the Municipal Atlas of the Sustainable Development Goals Bolivia 2020, the study employs spatial analysis methods such as geographic distribution, spatial dependence, and regionalization to comprehend the role of space in nutritional challenges. The findings reveal strong spatial dependence for both obesity prevalence in women and chronic malnutrition prevalence in children in Bolivia. Specifically, high rates of obesity in women are observed in eastern municipalities and their neighboring areas, while a concentrated cluster of chronic malnutrition in children is identified in the western regions. Considering these differences, this investigation argues that, using cluster analysis, Bolivia can be regionalized into eighteen geographical zones based on the distribution of these two nutritional variables. Limitations and future research avenues are discussed.

期刊介绍： Regional Science Policy & Practice (RSPP) is the official policy and practitioner orientated journal of the Regional Science Association International. It is an international journal that publishes high quality papers in applied regional science that explore policy and practice issues in regional and local development. It welcomes papers from a range of academic disciplines and practitioners including planning, public policy, geography, economics and environmental science and related fields. Papers should address the interface between academic debates and policy development and application. RSPP provides an opportunity for academics and policy makers to develop a dialogue to identify and explore many of the challenges facing local and regional economies.
