Educational Module On Parenting, Parental Knowledge, Parental Behavior, Child Nutritional StatusAbstract
Objective. This study was to analyze the influence of a parental fostering pattern module on parental knowledge and behavior, and its impact on the nutritional status of undernourished toddlers. Study Design, Place and Duration of the Study.This study used a quasi-experimental method with a two-group pretest-posttest design. It was conducted from January to May 2025 at the Community Health Center Moswaren and Inanwatan in South Sorong Regency. Methodology.The study used purposive sampling. The sample size was 35 people in each group (intervention and control). The intervention group used a parenting pattern module, while the control group used a maternal and child health (KIA) book. The instruments used were the parenting module, knowledge questionnaire, and food recall forms. Statistical analysis was performed using chi-square, Wilcoxon, and Mann-Whitney tests. Results.The intervention resulted in a significant increase in knowledge scores, particularly in sessions 1 and 4, with a significant increase of 30 points, compared to a control group that showed only small changes. The percentage of good behavior was higher in the intervention group (70.0%) than in the control group (30.0%). The chi-square test showed a significant difference in behavior between the groups (p = 0.004). The significance value (p-value) for nutritional status was 0.024, which indicates a significant difference between the intervention and control groups. Conclusions.The module pattern of foster parents significantly impacts their child's knowledge, behavior, and nutritional status. It is recommended to regularly implement this intervention and periodically monitor the nutritional status of toddlers.
