Journal Title: International Journal of Social Science And Human Research - Year 2023, Vol 6, Issue 05

Abstract

Stunting is a condition of failure to thrive in toddlers due to long-term malnutrition, exposure to repeated infections, and lack of stimulation. Stunting is influenced by the health status of adolescents, pregnant women, toddler's diet, as well as economic, cultural, and environmental factors such as sanitation and access to health services. Abang District is the subdistrict with the highest number of stunted children under five in Bali Province in 2022 with 17,523 children under five. The aims of this study were 1) to analyze the partial effect of family income, education and age of mother's first marriage on the chances of a child born with stunting in Abang District. 2) To analyze whether the mother's education reduces the influence of the mother's first marriage age on the chances of a child born with stunting in Abang District. The sample in this study were 99 toddlers and the sample was taken using a non-probability sampling method, namely purposive sampling. The data analysis technique used was Logistic Regression and Moderated Regression Analysis (MRA) using the STATA tool. Based on the results of the study it can be concluded that 1) Family income, education and age of mother's first marriage have a significant negative effect on the chances of a child born with stunting in Abang District. 2) Mother's education reduces the effect of mother's first marriage age on the chance of a child born with stunting in Abang District.
