The mean of prevention behavior of the stunting pre-test intervention group was 70,224 and the control 71,564, the average prevention behavior of the stunting post-test intervention group was 75,312 and the control 73,580, the increase in mean of prevention behavior of stunting pre-post-intervention group 5,048 and control 2,068. There was a difference in the increase in the mean of stunting prevention behavior at pre-post between the two groups (p-value <0.05), IPCP could increase stunting prevention behavior by 27 times controlled by the variable number of family members.
