Abstract

BACKGROUND: Stunting is a condition of failure to thrive under 5-year-old due to chronic malnutrition causing the children become too short for their age. The contribution of this research is to prevent and reduce stunting through Stunting Early Detection training.

AIM: The objective of the current research is to develop a model for mother empowerment in preventing and intervention stunting in children through stunting early detection training.

METHODS: Phase I is the development of a mother empowerment model in the prevention and intervention of stunting in children using a survey with a cross sectional design. Phase II is the implementation of the model using Quasi Experimental Nonrandomized Prepost Control Group Design.

RESULTS: The results of the study obtained that mothers who had good characteristics increased their knowledge 0.423 (p = 0.000). Mothers who have good knowledge increase their mother commitment 0.230 (p = 0.004), mothers who have a good commitment reduce stunting in children 0.448 (p = 0.000), mothers who have good knowledge increase family support 0.236 (p = 0.040), and good family support reduces stunting 0.257 (p = 0.011).

CONCLUSION: A new finding is the formation of a Mother Empowerment Model in the Prevention and Intervention of Stunting through Stunting Early Detection Training where mother commitment is the most influential factor.
