Abstract

Nutritional problems among toddlers aged 6–24 months remain a significant challenge in achieving optimal child growth and development. Complementary feeding (MPASI) is one of the key factors influencing the nutritional status of toddlers. This study aimed to analyze the relationship between complementary feeding patterns and the nutritional status of toddlers aged 6–24 months in the working area of Tarok Health Center, Payakumbuh. This study employed an analytic observational design with a cross-sectional approach. A total of 95 toddlers who met the inclusion criteria were selected through purposive sampling. Data on complementary feeding patterns were collected using a structured questionnaire, while nutritional status was assessed through anthropometric measurements based on World Health Organization (WHO) standards. Data were analyzed using univariate analysis to describe feeding patterns and nutritional status and bivariate analysis using the chi-square test and Odds Ratio (OR). The results showed that 68% of toddlers received complementary feeding according to recommendations, while 32% did not. Regarding nutritional status, 70% had normal nutritional status, 20% were undernourished, and 10% were overnourished. Bivariate analysis revealed a significant relationship between complementary feeding patterns and nutritional status (χ² = 15.23; p = 0.0001). Toddlers who received inappropriate complementary feeding were 3.5 times more likely to experience malnutrition. These findings highlight the importance of proper complementary feeding practices in improving toddler nutritional status.

Abstract

Background: Anemia in infants remains a significant public health problem in Indonesia, contributing to impaired growth, cognitive development, and reduced immunity. Inappropriate complementary feeding (MPASI) practices, including limited implementation of environmentally friendly (zero-waste) approaches, may negatively affect infant nutritional status. Objective: To analyze the relationship between zero-waste complementary feeding practices and anemia among infants aged 6–12 months at Situjuh Primary Health Center, Lima Puluh Kota. Methods: A quantitative cross-sectional study was conducted among 75 infants selected through purposive sampling. Data on complementary feeding practices were collected using structured interviews, while anemia status was determined by measuring capillary blood hemoglobin levels. Data were analyzed using the chi-square test. Results: Among the participants, 64% received zero-waste complementary feeding, and the prevalence of anemia was 32%. A significant association was found between zero-waste complementary feeding and anemia incidence (p = 0.015). Infants receiving environmentally friendly complementary feeding had a lower risk of anemia than those with conventional feeding practices (OR = 0.45; 95% CI: 0.21–0.93). Conclusion: Zero-waste complementary feeding is associated with a reduced risk of anemia in infants. Promoting environmentally friendly complementary feeding practices may help prevent anemia while supporting optimal infant nutrition and environmental sustainability.

Abstract

Child marriage persists as a major public health and human rights issue, especially in low- and middle-income countries where poor reproductive health literacy and weak family involvement heighten adolescents' risks. While family-based approaches to sexual and reproductive health (SRH) education are gaining traction, evidence on their effects on adolescents' knowledge and attitudes toward preventing child marriage remains unsynthesized. This study synthesizes recent empirical evidence (2021–2024) on family-based SRH education's impact on these outcomes. Using a literature review, we analyzed 15 peer-reviewed articles from Asian and African contexts, focusing on adolescents aged 10–19 and their parents/caregivers. Studies spanned randomized controlled trials, quasi-experimental, cross-sectional, mixed-methods, and qualitative designs, evaluating intervention features, family communication, strategies, and outcomes like knowledge and attitudes. Results show structured family interventions—with open, dialogic communication, parental training, culturally tailored materials, and interactive/digital media—markedly boost adolescents' SRH literacy and promote attitudes favoring marriage delay. Barriers included unidirectional communication and low parental capacity. These insights underscore the need for parental empowerment and multisectoral partnerships in policies. Family-based SRH education offers an evidence-based strategy to combat child marriage. Future studies should emphasize longitudinal, culturally adaptive models for greater sustainability and relevance.

Abstract

Complementary feeding (MP-ASI) is essential for supporting infant growth and development. However, inappropriate complementary feeding practices remain common due to mothers’ limited knowledge. Education provided by health workers, particularly midwives, is expected to improve maternal knowledge and promote more diverse complementary feeding practices. This study aimed to examine the effect of complementary feeding education by midwives on the diversity of complementary feeding among infants. A quantitative pre-experimental one-group pretest–posttest design was conducted at Air Dingin Health Center, Padang. Thirty mothers with infants aged 6–12 months were selected using purposive sampling based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. Data were collected through pretest and posttest questionnaires before and after health education. Maternal knowledge was assessed using structured questionnaires, while complementary feeding diversity was evaluated following the intervention. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and paired t-tests with a significance level of p < 0.05. Before the intervention, 60% of mothers had low knowledge, 30% moderate, and 10% good knowledge. After education, 50% demonstrated good knowledge, 40% moderate, and 10% low knowledge. The proportion of mothers providing diverse complementary foods increased from 30% to 70%. Statistical analysis showed significant improvements in both maternal knowledge and complementary feeding diversity (p < 0.05). Midwife-led complementary feeding education effectively enhances maternal knowledge and complementary feeding practices.

Abstract

Improper complementary feeding (MP-ASI) is still a nutritional problem in infants, influenced by lack of maternal knowledge and limited access to effective education. The use of digital media has the potential to increase the understanding of mothers in a more flexible and sustainable manner. This study aims to analyze the effect of digital-based nutrition education on patterns of complementary feeding in infants. The study used a quantitative design with a type of quasi-experimental one group pretest-posttest. The location of the study in Posyandu Kelurahan Anduring, Padang, with a sample of 45 mothers who have babies aged 6-12 months, was selected using purposive sampling technique. Data were collected through structured questionnaires and observation of complementary feeding practices before and after the digital education intervention. Data analysis was conducted univariate to see the frequency distribution and bivariate using paired t-test. The univariate results showed an increase in maternal knowledge scores from an average of 62.4 to 82.7 and good complementary feeding practices increased from 40% to 75.6%. Bivariate analysis showed that there is a significant effect of digital education on knowledge (p=0.001) and practice of complementary feeding (p=0.002). It was concluded that digital-based nutrition education is effective in improving the knowledge and practice of mothers in providing complementary feeding. The implication of this study is the need for the integration of digital education programs in posyandu activities as a preventive promotive strategy to improve the quality of MP-ASI delivery in a sustainable manner.

Abstract

Improper complementary feeding remains a major child health concern in Indonesia, particularly the limited utilization of prebiotics in complementary foods, despite their potential role in supporting infant gut health and immune function. Maternal knowledge regarding prebiotic-based complementary feeding is considered an important factor that may be influenced by health education provided by midwives. This study aimed to examine the association between midwife-led health education on prebiotic complementary feeding and maternal knowledge regarding healthy and nutritious complementary feeding practices. An analytical cross-sectional study was conducted in the working area of the Andalas Public Health Center, Padang. A total of 86 mothers with infants aged 6–24 months were recruited using purposive sampling. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire that had undergone validity and reliability testing. Univariate and bivariate analyses were performed using the chi-square test with a 95% confidence level. The findings showed that 54.7% of mothers had good knowledge, 29.1% had sufficient knowledge, and 16.2% had poor knowledge. In addition, 60.5% of respondents had received health education on prebiotic complementary feeding from midwives. A significant association was found between health education and maternal knowledge (p = 0.002), with mothers who received health education being 3.2 times more likely to have good knowledge than those who did not. These findings suggest that strengthening routine and structured health education programs delivered by midwives may improve maternal knowledge and promote appropriate prebiotic-based complementary feeding practices, thereby supporting optimal infant nutrition and health outcomes.

Abstract

Self-efficacy of adolescents in guarding reproductive health is an important predictor of health behavior related to sexual decision safety and the prevention of risks such as sexually transmitted infections and unwanted pregnancy. Development of digital technology provides opportunities for developing interactive educational media that can be accessed by teenagers and their families to increase self-efficacy. This literature review analyzed 11 internationally published articles between 2016–2026 related to digital media-based reproductive health education interventions that involve family or social support, including mobile health (mHealth), interactive applications, social media, and web platforms. The results show that digital educational media is generally capable of increasing knowledge, attitudes, and confidence/self-efficacy of teenagers regarding reproductive health, especially when accompanied by family involvement or parental support. In conclusion, family-based digital educational media can become a potential strategy to strengthen adolescents’ self-efficacy in making healthy decisions related to reproductive health. However, further studies with stronger experimental designs are required.

Abstract

Child marriage is a serious issue affecting adolescents’ health, education, and well-being. This article aims to examine the model of parental empowerment as peer educators in preventing child marriage through a literature review of national and international studies published between 2016 and 2026. The findings indicate that preventing early marriage requires a comprehensive approach involving increased parental knowledge, strengthened parent–adolescent communication, and community-based social norm transformation. Peer education is considered effective in improving knowledge and attitudes and therefore has strong potential to be developed into a sustainable parent-to-parent preventive strategy.
