Early childhood (2 to 5 years) is a stage in which a large number of transitions take place, including food transitions, which influence feeding patterns, preferences and rejections of certain foods. Taking into consideration the attitudes and practices of caregivers in relation to children's feeding is essential to understand their effects on nutritional status and, therefore, on present and future health. The aim of this research was to establish the association between caregivers' attitudes and practices related to child feeding and nutritional status in children aged 2 to 5 years attending the Health Center No. 63 of Parque República neighborhood, in the city of Córdoba, during year 2021.
The study was observational, correlational and cross-sectional. The main variables were: sociodemographic, nutritional status (anthropometry) and attitudes and practices of the caregiver regarding infant feeding.Population: non-probabilistic sample of 90 caregivers interviewed, the Children Food Questionnaire (CFQ) translated and adapted to Spanish (Navarro and Reyes, 2016) was used. Descriptive statistics and Spearman Brown's Rho statistic were used for data analysis.
The average age of caregivers was 31.7 years. 94.4% were female and 92.2% were mothers. Fifty percent of children presented normal nutritional status, 43% BMI >Pc 85 and 7% were at risk of underweight and underweight. With the total CFQ score a significant correlation was observed between attitudes and practices with children's NE rho - 0.257. It was determined that there is no relationship between pressure (rho -0.283) and control (rho -0.133) of food consumed by the child with BMI higher than expected for the age. We worked with a significance of 0.05.
The high prevalence of overweight/obesity observed in children aged 2 to 5 years reflects the need to work on NCD promotion and prevention actions with families. To understand caregivers' attitudes and practices related to child feeding is critical to figure up children's feeding styles and their effects on nutritional status. |

La primera infancia (2 a 5 años) es una etapa en la que se suceden un gran número de transiciones entre ellas las alimentarias, las cuales influyen en los modos de alimentarse, preferencias y rechazos a ciertos alimentos. Tomar en consideración las actitudes y prácticas de los/as cuidadores/as en relación a la alimentación de niños/as, resulta fundamental para comprender sus efectos en el estado nutricional y, por tanto, en la salud presente y futura. El objetivo de esta investigación fue establecer la asociación entre las actitudes y prácticas de cuidadores/as referidas a la alimentación infantil y el estado nutricional en niños/as de 2 a 5 años que asisten al Centro de Salud N° 63 del B° Parque República, de la ciudad de Córdoba, durante el año 2021. Se realizó un estudio observacional, correlacional y de corte transversal. Variables principales: sociodemográficas, Estado Nutricional (antropometría) y actitudes y prácticas del/la cuidador/a relativas a la alimentación infantil. Población: muestra no probabilística de 90 cuidadores/as entrevistados/as, se utilizó el cuestionario Children Food Question (CFQ) traducido y adaptado al español (Navarro y Reyes, 2016). Para análisis de datos se aplicó estadística descriptiva y el estadístico Rho de Spearman Brown. La edad promedio de los/as cuidadores/as fue 31,7 años. 94,4% género femenino y 92,2% eran madres. El 50% de niños/as presentó estado nutricional normal, 43% IMC >Pc 85 y 7% riesgo de bajo peso y bajo peso. Con el puntaje total del CFQ se observó correlación significativa entre las actitudes y prácticas con EN de niños/as, rho de - 0,257. Se determinó que no existe relación entre la presión (rho -0,283) y control (rho -0,133) de alimentos consumidos por el/la niño/a con el IMC mayor al esperado para la edad. Se trabajó con una significancia de 0,05. La alta prevalencia de sobrepeso/obesidad observada en niños/as de 2 a 5 años, refleja la necesidad de trabajar en acciones de promoción y prevención de ECNT con las familias. Comprender las actitudes y las prácticas que tienen los/as cuidadores/as relacionadas con la alimentación del/la niño/a resultan fundamentales para entender los estilos de alimentación infantil y sus efectos en el estado nutricional.
