Abstract

Posyandu is a type of community resource management and organization that is done for, by, with, and for the community in the implementation of health development. Posyandu Empowerment needs to be supported by cadres who are qualified to detect stunting early. Various media can be used to improve the skills of cadres. This study aimed to determine the effect of pocket book on the knowledge and attitudes of cadres in early detection of stunting. The research used Quasy-Experimental with a pre and posttest control group design. The population was all cadres in Kedung Doro Health Center Surabaya, with a sample of 30 control groups and 30 treatment groups taken using non-probability sampling. The research instrument used questionnaires and a pocket book. The analysis used was the Wilcoxon and Mann Whitney tests. The results showed that pocket book had an effect on the knowledge (p value 0.013<0.05) and attitude (p value 0.011<0.05) of cadres in their early sensitivity to stunting. There was a difference in knowledge (p value 0.002<0.05) but there was no difference in attitude (p value 0.301>0.05) of the cadres after the stunting pocketbook treatment. It has been demonstrated that the pocket book improves knowledge and behavior in the early detection of stunting. It is hoped that the needs of cadres in running Posyandu will remain a concern of policy makers in order to improve the behavior and skills of cadres through various trainings.
