Psychosocial Risk Factors of Food Insecurity in Puerto Ricans Living in the U.S. from Baseline to 5-year Follow Up (P04-041-19)

Objectives Food insecurity is prevalent among Puerto Ricans (PR) in the U.S. and is associated with worse mental health problems. However, the direction of the association cannot be determined from previous cross-sectional studies. In this study, we aim to explore the longitudinal associations between a group of psychosocial factors and changes in food insecurity status over 5 years among PR population.
