Subject

child-rearing methods, nutritional status, parenting

Description

Background: Child-rearing methods can influence the
prevalence of stunting and wasting in toddlers because parental
care plays a crucial role in the availability of food sources
consumed by toddlers daily. Additionally, parents are the
individuals closest to the growth and development of their
children. The aim is to analyze the influence of the child-rearing
methods reinforcement on nutritional status.
Methods: Analytical observational research type with a crosssectional design using a total sampling technique with 50
respondents. Data collection using a questionnaire. ANOVA
Multiple Linear Regression Test.
Results: The results of the analysis show that implementing
feeding practices influences nutritional status, with a p-value of
0.007. There is no influence of psychosocial stimulation on
children's nutritional status, with a p-value of 0.086. Healthcare
practices influence nutritional status, with a p-value of 0.003.
The ANOVA test results with an R square value of 0.080
conclude that the independent variable affects the dependent
variable by 8%, while other factors influence the remaining
92%. The regression analysis results for the implementation of
feeding practices show a p-value of 0.297, psychosocial
stimulation shows a p-value of 0.789, and healthcare practices
show a p-value of 0.444, indicating that none of these three
variables influences children's nutritional status.
Conclusion: The role of the family contributes significantly and
fundamentally to a child's overall growth and development. The
involvement and activity of mothers in nutritional status is an effort to prevent diseases, such as regularly taking their children for complete basic immunizations and providing healthcare.
