Nutritional fulfillment behavior as an intermediate variable and stunting prevention as a dependent variable. The result show that simultaneously there was an effect of variabel X on Y with a significance value of 0,000 and a large effect of 10,2%. And simultaneously shows that there is an effect of variable X and Y of Z with a significance value of 0,000 and a large effect of 12,8%. Data analysis used path analysis. Simultaneousy, there is an effect of the application of Health belief model theory on effort to prevent stunting in toddlers through nutritional fulfillment behavior.]]>
