  • Population profiles associated with severe functional difficulties and disability among 5-17 years-old children in México Ariela Braverman-Bronstein Tonatiuh Barrientos-Gutiérrez Filipa de Castro Eduardo Lazcano-Ponce Rosalba Rojas-Martínez Vicente Terán Salud Disability risk factors population at risk Objectives. To report the prevalence of severe functional difficulties and disability (SFD) in a nationally representative sample of children ages 5 to 17 in Mexico, to identify fac - tors associated with SFD, and population profiles predictive of SFD. Materials and methods. Using data from the National Survey on Children and Women we estimated prevalence and 95% confidence intervals of SFD and risk factors. We fitted bivariate and multivariate logistic regres - sion models. We then examined which combinations of the sociodemographic factors best predicted SFD. Results. The prevalence of SFD was 11.2%. The most prevalent SFD were on the socioemotional dimension (8.3%). The associated risk factors in the three dimensions were: living in a poor household, being a boy, having a mother with basic education or less, and non-indigenous background or living in an urban area. Conclusions. Identifying groups of the population at higher risk for SFD provides useful information for targeted intervention implementation. 2017 artículo científico 0036-3634 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=10653300005 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=106 Salud Pública de México application/pdf Instituto Nacional de Salud Pública Salud Pública de México (México) Num.4 Vol.59
