Abstract

Background: The prevalence of stunting in Indonesia is recorded at 21.6% among children under five, while the WHO target for 2025 is less than 14%. Prevention efforts are crucial for mitigating its detrimental impacts. One of the early prevention efforts is health education about nutrition through strengthening knowledge, attitudes, and practices related to healthy food consumption. Objectives: This study aimed to measure the differences in the levels of knowledge, attitudes, and practices in school-age children following health education about nutrition. Methods: This study used a pre-experimental method involving 40 students aged 13 to 15 years. All students received nutritional health education through drama performances and lectures about healthy food and practiced bringing healthy packed meals at certain times. Data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon test and Friedman test. Results: Descriptive analysis showed an increase in the average values of knowledge, attitudes, and practices. The Wilcoxon test revealed a significant increase in knowledge (p-value=0.035) before and after the intervention. Meanwhile, the Friedman test revealed a significant increase in practices (p-value<0.001) before and after the intervention, with the practice of bringing and consuming healthy packed meals remaining consistent up to four weeks after the intervention. Conclusions: Interventions using drama performances, lectures, and the provision of healthy packed meals significantly increased knowledge and practices among junior high school students. These interventions can be used by schools and related agencies to promote the habit of bringing healthy food to prevent the negative impacts of stunting.

Abstract

Background: Exclusive breastfeeding (EBF) is critical to starting life in its earliest phases. Breast milk alone provides adequate nutrition for infants from delivery until six months. The EBF achievement in Madura in 2022 was only 37.9%, far from the target set by the World Health Organization of 50% in 2025. Objectives: The study examined the role of birthplace on EBF in Madura Island in Indonesia. Methods: A cross-sectional study of 990 Madurese children was conducted. The researcher looked at 11 control variables, including regency, residence, mother age, marital status, education, occupation, wealth, antenatal care (ANC), early initiation breastfeeding (EIBF), child's age, and sex, and EBF activity as the outcome variable and childbirth as the exposure variable. As the last step, the author performed a binary logistic regression test. Results: Madura Island had a 37.9% EBF proportion. Meanwhile, 90.1% of births take place in healthcare facilities. According to the birthplace, mothers who gave birth in healthcare facilities were 1.939 times more likely to perform EBF than those who gave birth in non-healthcare facilities (AOR 1.939; 95% CI 1.854-2.037). Moreover, the study also found eleven control variables related to EBF among Madurese. Conclusions: Birthplace was related to EBF among Madurese. To achieve EBF, childbirth in healthcare facilities was almost twice that of childbirth in non-healthcare facilities. The study recommends only giving birth in a health facility. On the other hand, increasing the intensity of contact with health services during pregnancy and childbirth is necessary.
