Overview

Quasi-experimental study improved maternal competence in complementary feeding techniques, suggesting better child nutrition outcomes.

Key Points

  • Both educational interventions led to significant improvements in maternal competence, especially the cooking demonstrations.
  • The study demonstrated that improved maternal behavior is positively associated with weight-for-age in children under five.
  • Data were collected during three follow-up time points to assess changes in maternal knowledge, attitudes, and practices.
  • Integrating culturally relevant food-based education into health programs offers a sustainable solution for stunting prevention.
