About this study

Official title: The Effect of Breastfeeding Education Based on the Health Belief Model Given ın the Third Trimester of Pregnancy on Couples Breast Milk Perception and Self-efficacy

Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of breastfeeding education based on the Health Belief Model during the antenatal period on couples' perception and self-efficacy regarding breast milk.

Read the detailed description

Introduction: It is known that breast milk is crucial for newborns and infants. The Health Belief Model has been widely used in recent years to improve and promote health behaviors.

Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of breastfeeding education based on the Health Belief Model during the antenatal period on couples' perception and self-efficacy regarding breast milk.

Method: This randomized controlled study was conducted between June 30, 2022, and December 31, 2022, at the Dr. Selahattin Cizrelioğlu State Hospital in Şırnak. A total of 220 participants, including 110 couples who met the inclusion criteria, were randomly assigned to an intervention group (55 couples) and a control group (55 couples). Data were collected using a "Participant Information Form" for socio-demographic and obstetric information, the "Adults' Perception of Breast Milk Scale" for assessing perception related to breast milk, the "Pregnancy Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy Scale- Short Form" for evaluating mothers' breastfeeding self-efficacy during the antenatal period, and the "Paternal Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy Scale" for assessing fathers' breastfeeding self-efficacy during the pregnancy period.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Breastfeeding education based on the Health Belief modelBehavioural

    Training was given face to face with the participant, lasting approximately 40 minutes. One week after the training presentation, three short messages about the training were sent to the couples (both the pregnant woman and her partner) every other day. Two weeks after the training was given, a phone call was made for feedback. Post-test data were taken four weeks later.
