Abstract

Stunting is a global health problem that causes long-term impacts on children’s quality of life, particularly in terms of physical growth, cognitive development, and future productivity. Mothers’ knowledge of the impacts of stunting remains low. This study aims to analyze the effect of leaflet media on the knowledge, attitudes, and practices of mothers with kindergarten-aged children in accelerating stunting reduction. Methods: This was a quantitative study with a pretest–posttest research design. The respondents were 80 mothers who had kindergarten-aged children in Tarakan City, North Kalimantan. Results: Knowledge: In the intervention group, the respondents’ knowledge score before the intervention was 10.95 ± 0.45, and after the intervention, it increased to 12.83 ± 1.53; p = 0.000. The control group also showed an increase in knowledge, but the final score was lower compared to the intervention group, although still statistically significant (p = 0.000). Attitudes: In the intervention group, the attitude score significantly increased from 13.45 ± 1.03 before the intervention to 14.58 ± 2.62 after the intervention. In the control group, the score changed from 13.88 ± 0.46 before the intervention to 13.90 ± 1.63 after the intervention; however, the change was not statistically significant (p = 0.928). Practices: In the intervention group, practices significantly improved from 10.00 ± 0.55 before the intervention to 11.20 ± 2.13 after the intervention (p = 0.001). In the control group, practices also showed a significant increase from 10.43 ± 1.05 to 11.75 ± 1.93 (p = 0.000). Recommendation: The use of QR codes in leaflets can be applied so that mothers can access additional information in the form of videos or other interactive materials.
