Conditions studied: Primiparous Pregnant Women in the Last Trimester
In brief
This study was conducted using a pre-test-post-test randomized controlled experimental design to investigate the effects of neonatal care education given to primiparous mothers in the last trimester on their self-efficacy perception, prenatal and maternal bonding in the early postpartum period. The study population consisted of pregnant women in the last trimester who applied to the Antenatal School of Kars Harakani State Hospital between November 2024 and November 2026. The study sample consisted of a total of 76 pregnant women, divided into an intervention group (n: 38) and a control group (n: 38). Data were collected using the "Personal Information Form", "General Self-Efficacy Scale", "Prenatal Attachment Inventory", and "Maternal Attachment Scale". The intervention group received training on newborn care. In the first phase of the study, a pre-test was administered to both the intervention and control groups. Following the pre-test, Newborn Care Training was conducted face-to-face with pregnant women in the experimental group in two 20-minute sessions, totaling 40 minutes, after which the pregnant women were given an educational booklet. After this training session, reinforcement training was conducted twice by telephone at one-week intervals, and their questions were answered. After the pre-test, at 36 weeks of gestation, both the intervention and control groups were contacted by telephone and the "General Self-Efficacy Scale" and "Prenatal Attachment Inventory" were administered as post-tests. Six weeks after delivery, the maternal attachment scale was administered to both the intervention and control groups.
