Abstract
This study aimed to determine the relationship between fish consumption and nutritional status, intelligence level, and academic achievement among elementary school students in Karawang district. A Cross-sectional design was used in this study. Samples were 148 students of V and VI grades. The result showed that fish consumed by most samples are shrimp (88.5%), shellfish (81.8%), crab (80.4%), sardines (70.9%), and snapper fish (60.1%). Samples’s average fish consumption and protein intake from fish were 45 g/day and 10.9 g/day, respectively. A total of 60.9% and 70.9% samples had normal nutritional status by BMI/A and H/A. Intelligence Level (IQ) and academic achievement of samples were generally categorized as good. Spearman correlation test showed that there was no significant correlation between fish consumption (frequency, total, protein intake) and nutritional status, IQ level, and academic achievement (p > 0.05), except protein intake with H/A nutritional status (p = 0.020). Nutritional status by BMI/A was not correlated significantly with IQ level and achievement (p > 0.05). Whereas H/A nutritional status had significant correlation with IQ level on 90% confidence level (p = 0.076) and academic achievement (p = 0.029).
