To estimate levels of early childhood develop-ment (ECD) and associated factors in Mexican population aged 19-59 months.
The Ensanut 2018-19 evaluated ECD using the Early Childhood Development Index (ECDI) and level of language develop-ment. We used multivariate models, with logistic or linear regression, depending on the outcome variable.
Children of wealthier households and with children's books at home are more likely of having an adequate ECDI; in contrast, children who experienced violent discipline methods are less likely. Children living in rural areas, with more highly educated mothers, who were not undernourished, and with support for learning have higher language scores.
Public policies aimed to enhance early childhood development should take into account the associated modifiable factors.
评估19至59个月大的墨西哥人口的幼儿发展(ECD)水平及相关因素。
2018 - 19年全国营养与健康调查(Ensamut)使用幼儿发展指数(ECDI)和语言发展水平来评估ECD。根据结果变量,我们使用了逻辑回归或线性回归的多变量模型。
来自富裕家庭且家中有儿童书籍的儿童更有可能拥有足够的ECDI;相比之下,经历过暴力管教方法的儿童则可能性较小。生活在农村地区、母亲受教育程度较高、没有营养不良且有学习支持的儿童语言得分更高。
旨在促进幼儿发展的公共政策应考虑相关的可改变因素。
