Abstract

Usia 4–5 tahun merupakan fase golden age yang sangat menentukan perkembangan kognitif anak. Status gizi menjadi salah satu faktor penting dalam perkembangan struktur dan fungsi otak, di mana kekurangan gizi dapat menyebabkan keterlambatan kognitif. Penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis hubungan antara status gizi dan perkembangan kognitif anak usia 4–5 tahun pada komunitas pesisir. Penelitian menggunakan pendekatan kuantitatif dengan desain cross-sectional. Sampel penelitian berjumlah 25 anak yang dipilih menggunakan teknik purposive sampling. Status gizi diukur melalui antropometri berdasarkan Z-score WHO, sedangkan perkembangan kognitif dinilai menggunakan instrumen Kuesioner Pra Skrining Perkembangan (KPSP). Analisis data dilakukan menggunakan uji Chi-Square dan korelasi Spearman (α = 0,05). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa 64% anak memiliki status gizi normal dan 60% berada pada kategori perkembangan kognitif sesuai. Uji statistik menunjukkan adanya hubungan signifikan antara status gizi dan perkembangan kognitif (p = 0,028) dengan kekuatan korelasi sedang (ρ = 0,54). Disimpulkan bahwa status gizi berkontribusi signifikan terhadap perkembangan kognitif anak pada komunitas pesisir..
