Description

Introduction: Stunting is a condition in which a child's height is shorter
than other children of the same age. Mothers' knowledge about stunting
prevention and feeding pattern could be a factor that influences the
incidence of stunting. Knowledge is the outcome of comprehension after
sensing a particular object. A feeding pattern is defined as the mother's
feeding practice to children aged between 0 to 24 months. This study
aimed to explore the effect of the puzzle game simulation in increasing
mothers' knowledge about stunting prevention and feeding pattern in
children aged 0-24 months.
Methods: This was a quasi-experimental with a non-equivalent (pretest
and posttest) control group design.
Results: There was a significant difference in mothers' knowledge about
stunting prevention and feed pattern in the puzzle game simulation and
booklet group after the intervention, with the value of p=0.032 and 0.043,
respectively.
Conclusion: Puzzle ame simulation was perceived as a more effective
method compared to booklets in improving knowledge and feeding
pattern practice for children aged 0-24 months among the mothers. These
findings suggested using puzzle game simulation to attract and deliver
stunting and feeding pattern information to the mothers.
