Abstract: Adolescent undernutrition is a persisting public health problem in low and lower middle income countries (LLMICs). Nutritional trajectories are complexly interrelated with socio-cultural and economic (SCE) trajectories. However, a synthesis of the SCE determinants or consequences of undernutrition in adolescents is lacking. We undertook a narrative review of published literature to provide a narrative overview of the SCE determinants and consequences associated with undernutrition among adolescents in LLMICs. … Show more

“…Although the conceptual model used in this qualitative study helped to capture multiple and interacting factors influencing food choices and intake, we omitted to examine certain determinants of eating behaviours, such as household socio‐economics and mother's education, shown to be associated with nutritional status of adolescent girls in Indonesia and elsewhere (Kunto & Bras, ; Madjdian et al, ). We recognize that a wider range of potential determinants of eating patterns exist, as presented in a recently developed conceptual framework on adolescent malnutrition based on a systematic review of quantitative studies, which can be analysed through quantitative assessments (Madjdian et al, ). Our findings underline the urgent need to develop contextually relevant, targeted behavioural change strategies to modify the potentially harmful eating and activity patterns of adolescent girls identified in this study and to curb the trajectory of overweight in urban Indonesia.…”

“…A conceptual model designed to understand and explain adolescent food choices and consumption behaviours identifies broad levels of influences including individual (psychosocial, biological, knowledge, and lifestyle), environmental (family, friends, schools, worksites, fast food outlets, and convenience stores), and macrosystems (socio‐political changes, food availability, food production and distribution, and media and advertising) (Story et al, ). Although most studies focus on single‐factor determinants of food intake and nutritional status at the household and individual levels, this ecological model facilitates an exploration of multiple levels of influence, including often neglected broader community and societal determinants, and enhances an understanding of their relationships (Madjdian, Azupogo, Osendarp, Bras, & Brouwer, ; Story et al, ). This conceptual framework can be useful when examining the multifaceted, dynamic factors affecting food consumption, and the way they interact in influencing adolescent eating behaviours.…”

Prior studies indicated that technology-based platforms would be a feasible and effective way to reach both younger and older adolescent girls and boys (35,39,40) .…”

“…Low female status has been shown to impact on household decision‐making involving resource allocation, thus limiting women's ability to influence important familial decisions related to health and nutrition and perpetuating the intergenerational cycle of undernutrition (Haddad, ). Many studies have demonstrated that maternal education is positively associated with nutritional status in children and adolescents (Madjdian, Azupogo, Osendarp, Bras, & Brouwer, ; Makoka & Masibo, ). Although increasing education should improve female status in Bangladesh, changes will depend on the quality of schooling and subsequent opportunities for income‐generating activities.…”

“…Low female status has been shown to impact on household decision-making involving resource allocation, thus limiting women's ability to influence important familial decisions related to health and nutrition and perpetuating the intergenerational cycle of undernutrition (Haddad, 1999). Many studies have demonstrated that maternal education is positively associated with nutritional status in children and adolescents (Madjdian, Azupogo, Osendarp, Bras, & Brouwer, 2018;Makoka & Masibo, 2015 (Amin & Huq, 2008). Whereas family prestige, social pressure, and government programmes encourage female schooling, the dowry may be higher for better educated females, who may also be considered older prospective brides (Field & Ambrus, 2008;Parsons et al, 2015;Schuler, Bates, Islam, & Islam, 2006;Streatfield, Kamal, Ahsan, & Nahar, 2015).…”
