Introduction: The prevalence of stunting among under five years old children in Indonesia is still high, including those living in urban and non-remote areas that was taught to have better access of food and nutrition. The study aimed to determine the correlation between predisposing factors of stunting among toddlers in non-remote areas which thought to have good access to food and healthcare. Methods: This was a secondary data analysis using Indonesia’s Nationally Representative Survey known as the Basic Health Research 2018. The sample were children aged 0-59 months who were measured in selected households. Stunted children was determined based on the measuring height for age (HAZ) with a z-score less than -2 standard deviation. Multivariate analysis with a logistic regression test was performed to test predisposing factors associated with stunting. Results: The results showed that the prevalence of stunting among under-five years old children in non-remote areas of Indonesia was 29.7%. Adjusting for the multivariate analysis, the predisposing factors that significantly correlated with the incidence of stunting in a non-remote areas were families with a poor economic (AOR=1.49; 95%CI=1.39-1.59), household heads with low education levels (AOR= 1.50 (1.33-1.69) and health insurance ownership (AOR=1.16; 95%CI=1.09-1.24). Conclusions: In conclusion, families living in non-remote areas of Indonesia did not necessarily benefit from food availability or healthcare facilities, but it needs to be educated and wealthy enough to purchase food and also insurance. Trial Registration: Ethical approval research was issued by the Health Research Ethics Commission, Health Research and Development Agency of the Ministry of Health Number LB.02.01/2/KE.267/2017. |
