Abstract

Stunting in children can be caused by direct and indirect factors, such as environmental sanitation factors. Children who live in an unhealthy environment are prone to illness, which will interfere with growth in children and can lead to stunting. This study aims to determine the relationship between environmental sanitation factors (drinking water sources, latrines, waste disposal, garbage disposal, healthy homes, and air pollution) with the incidence of stunting in school-age children at SD Loa Janan Ilir District, Samarinda City. The research method used an analytic survey with a cross-sectional approach, with a sample of 188 respondents, consisting of parents and first graders from 5 elementary schools. The instruments used were microtoise and questionnaires. Data analysis using chi-square. The results showed that the source of drinking water was p = 0.000, the toilet variable was p = 0.000, the waste disposal variable was p 0.020, the garbage disposal variable was p = 0.000, the healthy house variable was p = 0.003 and the air pollution variable was p = 0.000. All variables have a p-value <0.05, so Ho is rejected, meaning that the variable sources of drinking water, latrines, waste disposal, housing conditions, air pollution are all related to the incidence of stunting in school children. Improving environmental sanitation that meets health requirements is crucial to preventing stunting in school-age children.

Abstract

Stunting is a nutritional disorder in toddlers, marked by height below the average for their age due to chronic malnutrition. This condition results in growth failure, impaired cognitive function, and a higher risk of degenerative diseases like diabetes, hypertension, and stroke. Teenagers, as future parents, have an essential role in breaking the cycle of stunting. Currently, teenagers are active social media users, particularly on TikTok and Instagram, which can serve as educational platforms. This study aims to assess the impact of educational videos on stunting through TikTok and Instagram on grade 11 students' knowledge at SMA Negeri 4 Samarinda. The research design is quasi-experimental with a pretest-posttest control group. Purposive sampling selected 80 students from a population of 235. Data were collected through pre-test and post-test questionnaires. Univariate and bivariate data analysis included the Wilcoxon test and paired t-test. Results showed significant effects on knowledge, with p-values of 0.001 for TikTok (Wilcoxon test) and 0.000 for Instagram (paired t-test). This study highlights the potential of social media as a tool for health promotion, especially in educating adolescents on stunting prevention.
