The Relationship Between Knowledge About Complementary Feeding And Family Income With The Incidence Of Stunting
Abstract
Background : Stunting has been a global health concern. The long-term consequences of stunting include high mortality and morbidity rates, suboptimal cognitive development, especially during school age, reduced work productivity, and future metabolic issues. Family income is a multidimensional factor. Additionally, the gap in knowledge regarding feeding remains a major issue. The aim of this research is to determine the relationship between knowledge about complementary feeding and family income with the incidence of stunting. Method : This type of research uses a quantitative analytical observational method with a cross sectional design. 45 mother who met the selection criteria to participate in this study were obtained by simple random sampling technique. Result: The results of the univariate analysis showed that some respondents had less knowledge about complementary feeding (46.7%), some respondents had low income (55.6%) and the majority of stunting respondents 26 (57.8%). The results of bivariate analysis using the Chi-Square statistical test found a significant relationship between maternal knowledge (p=0.002) and family income (p=0.001) with the incidence of stunting. Conclusion: Mother's knowledge and family income are in the low range, both of which contribute to stunting incidents. Mother's knowledge about feeding is crucial to ensure that children's nutritional needs and adequacy are met. Additionally, family purchasing power, which is influenced by family income, determines the ability to provide various types of food to meet daily calorie intake
