Abstract

Babies and toddlers in Indonesia often experience stunting, with around 21.6% of them affected by this condition. In North Sumatra, the prevalence reached 21.1%, while in Humbang Hasundutan, the figure reached 29.6%. A survey in Simarigung Village found that 27 toddlers were stunted. This study aims to evaluate the benefits of stunting prevention education based on the AECAS application, with a focus on increasing the knowledge, attitudes, and actions of mothers in Simarigung Village. This research used a quasi-experimental design with pre-test and post-test, involving 47 mothers of babies and toddlers using Android cellphones. The sampling method used was total sampling, and a paired t-test was carried out to analyze the results. The research results show a difference between the pretest and posttest with a confidence level of 95%. In the knowledge variable, there was a significant increase (p-value=0.000 < 0.05) with a Mean Paired Difference of 0.34. The attitude variable also showed a significant increase (p-value=0.000 <0.05) with a Mean Paired Difference of 0.36. Likewise, the action variable showed a significant increase (p-value = 0.000 < 0.05) with a Mean Paired Difference of 0.27. The results of the normality test show that the data for the Knowledge, Attitude, and Action variables are normally distributed. Therefore, it is hoped that respondents can increase their understanding of preventing stunting in infants and toddlers thanks to the education provided through the AECAS application

Abstract

Toddlerhood is a period of rapid growth, requiring complete nutritional needs. Fulfillment of toddler nutrition depends on maternal behavior. According to the Humbang Hasundutan Health Profile, the prevalence of toddler nutritional status based on the 2024 Basic Health Research (Riskesda) was 16.8%, with undernutrition at 13.3%, adequate nutrition at 63%, and overnutrition at 6.2%. This descriptive, analytical study with a cross-sectional design aimed to determine the relationship between maternal dietary behavior and the nutritional status of toddlers. This study was conducted in Saitnihuta Village, Doloksanggul District, Humbang Hasundutan Regency in 2025. Sampling was conducted using total sampling, with 54 mothers and 54 toddlers. The instruments used were questionnaires and toddler weight measurements. Primary data were obtained from questionnaires and toddler weight measurements, while secondary data were collected from village reports. The results of the study, using a chi-square test with a significant degree of significance, showed that maternal knowledge was related to toddler nutritional status (p-value > α (0.000 > 0.05), maternal attitudes were related to toddler nutritional status (p-value < α (0.000 < 0.05), and maternal actions were related to toddler nutritional status (p-value < α (0.000 < 0.005). It is hoped that mothers with toddlers will understand good eating patterns for their children and the active role of the community in supporting health services and the role of health workers in providing counseling on toddler nutrition.
