Communities 13, 15 and 20 underwent two stage-samplings where quantitive data was collected. Because of the different selection of youth, the results were weighted based on inverse probaility and probability of response. The results showed that in commune 20, there was a greater chance of unprotected sex of youth ages 16 to 17 and females, among others.

The study was conducted by taking a sample of 5556 adults between 18 and 69 years of age. Characteristics assessed were weight, height, and waist circumference. The participants were then asked questions on their family income, socioeconomic stratum and academic level. The results showed that the height of the participants was associated with socioeconomic conditions. The article concludes with a call to action for a preventive approach during childhood to prevent unhealthy eating habits and the cumulative effect of food deprivation throughout life.
