Hi community,

I wish to compare the prevalence of food security among adult males (AGE_VQ_P>=20). Food security is an ordinal outcome with 3 levels (food secure, at risk of hunger and food insecure) and male==1.
I have tried using a Kruskal-Wallis and I'm not sure if this test is appropriate in this case. Here is the code and outcome I produced:

kwallis Sex if AGE_VQ_P>=20 & Sex==1, by(Hunger_cat)

Kruskal-Wallis equality-of-populations rank test

+--------------------------------------+
| Hunger_cat | Obs | Rank Sum |
|--------------------------+--------+---------------|
| Food secure | 1,840 | 3.61e+06 |
| At risk of hunger | 960 | 1.88e+06 |
| Experience hunger | 1,119 | 2.19e+06 |
+---------------------------------------------------+

chi-squared = -0.000 with 2 d.f.
probability = 1.0000

chi-squared with ties = . with 2 d.f.
probability = 0.0001

and If this test is appropriate, may you please advise on how to run a Tukey post hoc analysis
