ABSTRACT
Objective To analyze the current situation of dietary diversity and caregiver self-efficacy for complementary feeding among infants and young children aged 6 to 23 months in rural Nanchong city,Sichuan province,and to explore the relationship between dietary diversity and caregiver self-efficacy. Methods Multi-stage randomized cluster sampling method was used to select infants and young children aged 6 to 23 months and their caregivers in rural areas of Nanchong city,Sichuan province as the subjects.A structured questionnaire was designed to collect the basic information of the subjects,dietary diversity,and caregiver self-efficacy for complementary feeding.Multivariate Logistic regression was adopted to analyze the relationship between the dietary diversity and caregiver self-efficacy for complementary feeding of infants and young children. Results A total of 770 pairs of infants and young children and their caregivers were included.The minimum pass rate of dietary diversity was 61.56%(474/770) for all the infants and young children and 45.00%(108/240),69.16%(287/415),and 68.70%(79/115) for the infants and young children aged 6 to 11,12 to 17,and 18 to 23 months,respectively.The results of regression analysis showed that the caregiver self-efficacy of complementary feeding was a contributing factor for qualified dietary diversity of infants and young children in the case of other confounders being controlled(OR=1.42,95%CI=1.17-1.73,P<0.001). Conclusion The dietary diversity for infants and young children in rural Nanchong city,Sichuan province needs to be improved,and caregivers with higher self-efficacy of complementary feeding are more likely to provide diversified complementary feeding for infants and young children.
