Hasil penelitian dengan menggunakan uji statistik multivariabel regresi logistik menunjukkan bahwa perilaku ibu tentang imunisasi berpengaruh terhadap status kelengkapan imunisasi dasar pada anak dengan nilai rasio odds 4,12. Artinya ibu yang memiliki perilaku tentang imunisasi kurang baik memiliki risiko 4,12 kali status imunisasi dasar pada anaknya tidak lengkap dibandingkan dengan ibu yang memiliki perilaku tentang imunisasi baik.
Selain itu, status kelengkapan imunisasi dasar pada anak dipengaruhi pula oleh pendidikan ibu, jumlah anak masih hidup, aktifitas kader Pos Pelayanan Terpadu (Posyandu), aksesibilitas ke Pos Pelayanan Terpadu (Posyandu) dan pemajanan media informasi.

Pengaruh perilaku ibu tentang imunisasi terhadap status kelengkapan imunisasi dasar pada anak, ternyata dipengaruhi oleh kovariat antara lain pendidikan ibu dan aksesibilitas ke Pos Pelayanan Terpadu (Posyandu).
Dari hasil penelitian ini diperoleh model terbaik yaitu : Logit p(X) = -2,82+ 1,05 (Perilaku ibu tentang imunisasi) + 0,90 (Aktifitas kader Pos Pelayanan Terpadu (Posyandu)) + 1,53 (Aksesibilitas ke Pos Pelayanan Terpadu (Posyandu)) + 1,50 (Pemajanan media informasi) + 1,56 (Pendidikan ibu).
