Inégalités nutritionnelles au sein des ménages: la pauvreté joue-t-elle un rôle?

This paper studies the impact of income on intrahousehold inequalities in nutrient intakes, the cohesion of household behaviour and the determinants of the nutrient adequacy of each member of the household. We use individual data from the households sample in INCA survey. The analysis of nutritional adequacy in three micronutrients shows significant differences according to income, in particular for iron and vitamin C. Moreover, the multivariate analysis shows the sensitivity of the nutritional status of women and children to income, mother's socio-economic status and to the nutritional quality of other members′ intakes.
