Abstract

Abstract: Stunting is a condition where height is not in accordance with age. It is due to chronic malnutrition which causes nonoptimal brain development that can affect children’s cognitive development, performance at school, and learning ability, as well as consequently influences learning achievement at school. This study was aimed to identify the correlation between stunting and learning achievement of elementary school students at Tikala Manado. This was an analytical study with a cross sectional design. Respondents were elementary school students at Tikala Manado aged 7-13 years that had their average grades. Data were analyzed by using unpaired T-test. The results showed that there were 232 students as respondents. Stunting was found in 103 students (44%) and not stunting in 129 students (56%). The average grade of stunting students was 67.16 and of not stunting students was 68.53. Statistical analysis showed that there was no significant difference between the average student grade in stunting students and not stunting students (P=0.215; α=0.05). Conclusion: There was no significant correlation between stunting and learning achievement

Keywords: stunting, learning achievement
