Background: The period of growth of children under five years is an important period in child development.
As it is known that the first three years are the golden period, which is the optimization of the growth
process. And malnutrition in the golden period is irreversible.
Objective: To study and explain the relationship between nutritional status of BB / U and TB / U with the
development of children aged 18-36 months.
Method: Type of quantitative analytic research with cross sectional design. Respondents are mothers who
have children aged 18-36 months. The total population studied was 96 children. Data collection uses
interviews, measurements. Data analysis using univariate, bivariate (Chi Square), multivariate (logistic
regression).
Results: Showing toddlers whose development did not match 52.1%, nutritional status BB / U was not good
58.3%, very short nutritional status TB / U 59.4%, poor nutritional intake 55.2%, female gender 56.2%,
small number of family members 67.7 %, low maternal education level 55.2%, mother who does not work
60.4%, low income level 53.1%, low knowledge of maternal nutrition 53.1%, toddlers who are not infected
with 57.3%. Variables related to child development p value <0.05, namely nutritional status TB / U (p =
0.017), nutritional intake (p = 0.002), income level (p = 0.019), maternal nutritional knowledge (p = 0.005).
Conclusion: The dominant variable is nutrient intake because it has an OR value = 8.919 which means that
the intake of nutrients that is consumed less by toddlers in one day has an opportunity of 8,919 times for the
development of children who are not suitable.

Abstrak
Latar Belakang : Periode pertumbuhan anak di bawah lima tahun merupakan periode penting dalam
tumbuh kembang anak. Seperti diketahui bahwa tiga tahun pertama merupakan periode keemasan (golden
period), yaitu terjadi optimalisasi proses tumbuh kembang. Dan kekurangan gizi pada periode keemasan
bersifat irreversible (tidak pulih).
Tujuan : Untuk mempelajari dan menjelaskan hubungan antara status gizi BB/U dan TB/U dengan
perkembangan anak usia 18-36 bulan.
Metode : Jenis penelitian analitik kuantitatif dengan rancangan cross sectional. Responden adalah ibu yang
memiliki anak usia 18-36 bulan. Total populasi yang di teliti sebanyak 96 anak. Pengumpulan data
menggunakan wawancara, pengukuran. Analisis data menggunakan univariat, bivariat (Chi Square),
multivariat (regresi logistik).
Hasil : Menunjukkan batita yang perkembangan anaknya tidak sesuai 52.1%, status gizi BB/U kurangbaik
58.3%, status gizi TB/U sangat pendek 59.4%, asupan gizi yang kurang 55.2%, jenis kelamin perempuan
56.2%, jumlah anggota keluarga yang sedikit 67.7%, tingkat pendidikan ibu yang rendah 55.2%, ibu yang
tidak bekerja 60.4%, tingkat pendapatan yang rendah 53.1%, pengetahuan gizi ibu yang rendah 53.1%,
batita yang tidak terkena penyakit infeksi 57.3%. Variabel yang berhubungan dengan perkembangan anak p
value < 0,05 yaitu status gizi TB/U (p= 0.017), asupan gizi (p=0.002), tingkat pendapatan (p= 0.019),
pengetahuan gizi ibu (p= 0.005).
2
Kesimpulan : Variabel yang dominan adalah asupan gizi karena mempunyai nilai OR= 8.919 artinya asupan
gizi yang kurang dikonsumsi batita dalam satu hari berpeluang 8.919 kali terhadap perkembangan anak yang
tidak sesuai.
