Abstract

Background: Stunting remains a chronic nutritional disorder that compromises the quality of future human resources. Although multiple interventions have been implemented, the national prevalence in Indonesia was still 19.8% in 2024, surpassing the targeted 14%. Objective: This study sought to determine the factors associated with stunting among children aged 6–24 months in Bedahan Subdistrict, Depok City. Methods: A cross-sectional design was applied to 121 mothers of children aged 6–24 months selected from several Posyandu using purposive sampling. Children’s anthropometric data were measured with an infantometer and microtoise. Information was gathered through structured questionnaires and two non-consecutive 24-hour dietary recalls. The chi-square test was used for statistical analysis. Results: The proportion of stunted children was 14.9%. Significant associations were found between stunting and exclusive breastfeeding (p = 0.043), low birth weight (p = 0.019), and parenting practices (p = 0.043). Meanwhile, no significant relationships were observed between stunting and energy intake, protein intake, maternal employment status, or maternal education level (p > 0.05). Conclusion: Stunting prevention should focus on improving maternal nutrition during pregnancy, strengthening exclusive breastfeeding programs, and enhancing parental education on appropriate parenting practices to support optimal child growth and development.
