英文文献摘要：
The problem of hidden hunger has emerged as one of the major development issues alongside food security. This problem highlights the likelihood of households having access to inadequate amount of key micronutrients in a diet despite having access to adequate quantities of food. , This paper uses a recent detailed household consumption data to investigate households’ nutritional knowledge, the diversity of diets consumed, and the micronutrient uptake, focusing specifically on Vitamin A. The study finds high knowledge of Vitamin A but low understanding of the function of Vitamin A in human bodies. We find a disconnect between the knowledge of Vitamin A and diets consumed by the respondents. Further, the use of diet diversity scores (DDS) reveal a narrow range of foods consumed, with children age 6-23 months most affected. However, the predictions from DDS stand in stark contrast with actual consumption of Vitamin A rich foods. The study concludes that there is high awareness of Vitamin A and Vitamin A-rich foods among rural households although this knowledge does not directly translate into consumption Vitamin A rich foods. The study also concludes that care needs to be taken in using different measures of diet diversity to proxy micronutrient uptake. It discusses policy recommendations of these findings.

隐性饥饿问题已成为与粮食安全一道的主要发展问题之一。这一问题突出表明，尽管家庭能够获得足够数量的食物，但在饮食中获得关键微量营养素不足的可能性仍然存在。在美国，本文利用最近的详细家庭消费数据，调查家庭的营养知识、饮食的多样性和微量营养素的摄取情况，特别关注维生素a。研究发现，人们对维生素a的知识很高，但对维生素a在人体内的功能了解较低。我们发现，在维生素a知识和饮食之间的脱节的受访者。此外，使用饮食多样性评分(DDS)揭示了人们消费的食物范围很窄，6-23个月的儿童受影响最大。然而，DDS的预测与实际摄入的富含维生素A的食物形成了鲜明的对比。这项研究的结论是，农村家庭对维生素A和富含维生素A的食物有很高的认识，尽管这种认识并不能直接转化为对富含维生素A的食物的消费。该研究还得出结论，在使用不同的饮食多样性指标来替代微量营养素摄入时，需要注意。它讨论了这些调查结果的政策建议。
