Abstract

Background: Nutrition is one of the factors that can be used as a determinant of the quality of human resources. The number of malnourished sufferers in the world reaches 104 million children. The prevalence of underweight children based on weight and age indicators is 19.6% which consists of 5.7% toddlers with poor nutrition and 13.9% of them with under nutrition. Based on data from the District Health Office of Kulon Progo (2014), the number of toddlers with under nutrition was 10.13%.

Methods: This study was an observational analytic cross-sectional design. It was conducted in July, 2019. The study population was mothers who had babies and or toddlers in Kalisoko. The sampling was carried out using random sampling with inclusion criteria of mothers who have babies and or toddlers residing in Kalisoko. Exclusion criteria in this study were mothers who were not willing to be sampled and mothers who did not have babies and or toddlers. Based on the established inclusion and exclusion criteria, a sample of 30 was obtained. The research instrument was a questionnaire. Statistical tests were performed using chi-square test.

Results: Chi-square test results showed a significant value of 0.072 (p<0.05), which means that there is no relationship between maternal knowledge of maternal attitudes about nutritional status in infants and toddlers in Kalisoko, Tuksono, Sentolo, Kulonprogo 2019. The risk prevalence value is 2.303 (>1) and the CI value between 1.083 and 4.897 so that it does not exceed 1, meaning that the knowledge of mothers which is not really good is at risk of 2.303 times compared to mothers who have good knowledge.

Conclusions: Knowledge is a risk factor for maternal attitudes about nutritional status in infants and toddlers but it is not statistically significant.
