Abstract

A questionnaire was designed to investigate the intensity of the values associated with the consumption of corn by female housewives in an urban population in order to identify what are the determinants of the consumption of this cereal; the results obtained show that the designed instrument is suitable for use in research and allows to correctly distinguish the social, cultural, economic and biological (or health) aspects that determine the use and consumption of corn in the population's diet. In the first design of the questionnaire based on previous research and interviews, values that were not consistent in the first application before validating were considered and therefore had to be suppressed in the validated questionnaire to maintain its reliability.
