Abstract

Introduction: The early years of life are important for a child's health and development. Positive parenting and quality interactions were needed to develop all children’s abilities according to their age by meeting their social, emotional, and educational needs for stimulation. A mother plays an important role in encouraging a child's growth and development. This research aims to determine the influence of social psychological factors that influence maternal behavior on healthy child development using the Information Motivation Behavior Skills (IMB) model. Materials and methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted on 400 pairs of mothers and children under five years old. Respondents were measured using questionnaires and observation sheets. The maternal behavior level was measured using the Daily Development Stimulation for Children (DDSC) questionnaire. Path analysis was applied to analyze the relationship between IMB and maternal behavior in improving the development of children. Results: Healthy maternal behavior in improving the development of children was directly and positively related to maternal behavioral skills (b= 1.00, p<0.001). Then, it is indirectly and positively related to information (b= 0.28, p<0.001), self-efficacy (b= 0.18, p<0.001), and motivation (b= 0.51, p<0.001). The goodness of fit path analysis indicated values of p= 0.57, RSME< 0.001, TFI= 1.00, TLI= 1.00, and SRMR= 0.003. Conclusion: A mother's healthy behavior that improves child development is directly and positively related to the behavioral skills that a mother has. Furthermore, it is indirectly and positively related to the information and motivation that a mother has.
