- Abstract
Socioeconomic status has been related to healthy dietary eating habits. The study aimed to examine the association between the socioeconomic status of the family and the adequacy of protein intake in elementary children. A survey of children’s food consumption was conducted in public elementary schools in Surakarta selected by multistage random sampling; 113 children completed the survey. Socioeconomic status includes the parents’ educational background, job, and income and were obtained by a socioeconomic questionnaire. The children’s protein intake was obtained by a 7-days food diary. The types of food consumed were converted to grams and analyzed using the Nutriture program and then compared to the recommended dietary allowances (RDA) for Indonesian children. The results showed that 85% of the children had insufficient protein intake. There was an association between maternal education and protein adequacy in the children (p=0.014). Mothers with low education had 1.2 times higher risk of protein deficiency in their children compared to those with high education.
