Abstract

The purpose of this research is to find a model for environmental arrangements for pregnant women in the early prevention of stunting with a case study in Padang Pariaman Regency - West Sumatra. The method used in this research is the Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) approach because SEM is a set of statistical techniques that allows the measurement of a series of relatively “complicated” relationships simultaneously. The sample in this study was made up of 112 people who were in Padang Pariaman Regency. Before performing analytical techniques using SEM, the data was processed electrically to identify the frequency distribution of the research. The results showed that the ability of the families’ behaviour variable to explain the variance of each variable was 45.6% for the level of education, knowledge, actions, and behaviour of the pregnant women’s families and a value of 54.4% for other factors influence. After researching and based on theory, other factors that influence early prevention of stunting in Padang Pariaman Regency are attitude, motivation, family support, and the role of health workers.
