The study identifies associations between psychosocial risk factors and childhood stunting, highlighting implications for prevention.
= 0.07, SE = 0.05, 95% CI [0.02, 0.20]) predicted greater IPV, which, in turn, was associated with elevated maternal mental health problems and ultimately childhood stunting.

Going forward, this knowledge may also help to inform preventative interventions intended to reduce childhood stunting.
