Additional file 1: of Feeding practices and growth among young children during two seasons in rural Ethiopia
Survey questionnaire. Questionnaire administered to the study participants to collect data on feeding patterns and practices and child growth. (DOC 130Ă‚Â kb
Mean (±SD) intake of food groups per week in any given week during the last 3 months before the survey by food security status and sex.
***<p>P<0.001, **P<0.01.</p><p>T-test was done to assess the differences between food secure and food insecure groups by intake of the different food groups. The food items were grouped according to MyPyramid [USDA, 2005).</p><p>Means [±SD) are given unless indicated otherwise.</p><p>The p values compare the means frequency of consumption of the different food groups per week between food secure and food insecure adolescents and the maximum value for the group is 1.</p><p>FS = food Secure, FIS =  Food Insecure.</p

Proportion of adolescents who consumed specific food item at least once in a week in any given week during the last 3 months before the survey by their food security status.<sup>*</sup>
<p>Most of the significant differences observed were on food items which became very expensive.</p>*<p>Percentages refer to the proportion of adolescents who consumed the food item over the last 7 days and are calculated from column total. <sup>1</sup>The significance level is 0.0016 [0.05/30) due to Bonferroni correction.</p><p>A Chi-square test was used to calculate the P values.</p
