Abstract
The nutritional status of women of the coastal region of the Great East Japan Earthquake disaster area: Three years after
Highlights
Following the 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake, many residents, in particular those of the coastal region, lived in shelters for the first few months after the earthquake [1]
The present study sought to measure the nutritional status of women living in the coastal region of the Great East Japan Earthquake disaster area
The Clinician-Administered Posttraumatic Stress Disorder Scale (CAPS) score, as a measure of PTSD, was higher for the 60s age group compared to the other age groups
Summary
Following the 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake, many residents, in particular those of the coastal region, lived in shelters for the first few months after the earthquake [1]. Standards of living were marked by a deterioration in the quantity and quality of food intake [1]. Three and a half years have passed since the Great East Japan Earthquake, with the life of residents recovering to close to pre-earthquake conditions. Studies investigating the experience of residents have found the nutritional status of residents to be low post-disaster. The purpose of this study was to investigate women’s nutritional status in the coastal region of the disaster area, three years after the Great East Japan Earthquake
