Determinants of stunting among under-five children in Amhara and Oromia regions, Ethiopia: the linear quantile regression analysis
The study identified both unobserved time-constant and time-varying heterogeneities, as well as several fixed effects. These factors contribute to an increased risk of under-five stunting and raise the probability of transitioning into the stunted state. Without timely and targeted interventions, these effects may continue to exacerbate the burden of stunting.
