Abstract

Masalah nafsu makan rendah pada anak usia prasekolah merupakan isu krusial dalam kesehatan anak karena berdampak langsung pada asupan gizi, proses tumbuh kembang, serta berpotensi meningkatkan risiko gizi buruk dan stunting. Peran orang tua sebagai motivator, edukator, regulator, dan role model, serta kreativitas penyajian variasi makanan secara visual, rasa, dan tekstur sangat penting dalam merangsang selera makan anak. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis hubungan antara peran orang tua dan variasi makanan terhadap nafsu makan anak usia prasekolah di TK Bina Anaprasa Nurul Jadid Paiton Probolinggo. Penelitian kuantitatif ini menggunakan desain studi cross-sectional. Sampel penelitian mencakup 116 orang tua murid yang dipilih menggunakan teknik total sampling. Data dikumpulkan menggunakan kuesioner terstruktur untuk menilai peran orang tua, variasi makanan, serta nafsu makan anak, kemudian dianalisis menggunakan uji korelasi Spearman Rank. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan adanya hubungan yang signifikan antara peran orang tua dengan nafsu makan anak (p-value < 0,05) dan hubungan signifikan antara variasi makanan dengan nafsu makan anak (p-value < 0,05). Makin optimal pengasuhan makan oleh orang tua dan makin bervariasi susunan menu yang disajikan, makin tinggi pula tingkat nafsu makan anak. Keterlibatan aktif orang tua dan variasi penyajian makanan berkontribusi secara nyata terhadap peningkatan nafsu makan anak usia prasekolah. Temuan ini menjadi landasan edukasi preventif dan promotif bagi orang tua, tenaga kesehatan, serta pendidik PAUD dalam mengintervensi gangguan perilaku makan pada anak sejak dini.

Abstract

Poor appetite among preschool-aged children represents a critical pediatric health issue as it directly impairs nutritional intake and physical development while heightening the risk of malnutrition and stunting. Parental roles—acting as motivators, educators, regulators, and behavioral role models—alongside dietary variety in visual presentation, taste, and texture, are essential in stimulating a child's willingness to eat. This study aims to evaluate the relationship between parental roles, food variety, and appetite among preschool children at TK Bina Anaprasa Nurul Jadid, Paiton, Probolinggo. A quantitative research design with a cross-sectional approach was conducted. The sample comprised 116 parents of preschool-aged children enrolled via a total sampling technique. Structured questionnaires were deployed to assess parental roles, food variety, and children's appetite. Data were analyzed using the non-parametric Spearman Rank correlation test. Findings demonstrated a statistically significant positive correlation between parental roles and children's appetite (p-value < 0.05), as well as between food variety and children's appetite (p-value < 0.05). Enhanced parental feeding involvement and higher meal presentation variety correspond directly with elevated child appetite levels. Active parental engagement in feeding practices combined with appealing food presentation significantly improves appetite in preschool children. This research serves as a foundational reference for parents, healthcare providers, and early childhood educators to implement preventive and promotive nutritional interventions.
