Improved self-efficacy is known to be an important factor in increased breastfeeding prevalence. In a meta-analysis that included 11 articles, the authors stated that for each 1-point increase in the mean BSES-SF score, in the breastfeeding intervention group of mothers, the odds of exclusive breastfeeding increased by 10% . This indicates that hea...
Preterm infants demonstrate more problems with state-regulation compared to term infants. They are more irritable, have problems with routines , and problematic feeding is highly prevalent . The mother’s self-efficacy seems to have a mediating role in infant’s state-regulation. Infants whose mothers showed high levels of stress during pregnancy cri...
Previous research has shown that mothers with older age are breastfeeding longer . In this study, we have shown that mothers with older age perceive that the infant has better state-regulation. Another significant factor for how the mother perceived the infant’s state-regulation was that the mother perceived that she had breastfeeding support. By f...
Among the strengths of the present study was the prospective design, whereby the predictors were measured three months before the outcome, meaning that we could ascertain that the Infant state-regulation index score could not influence the BSES-SF score, but any possible influence had to go the other way around. A limitation of the study was that d...

2014年10月20日 · Background Accurate measurement of the duration of exclusive breastfeeding is complicated by factors related to definitions, timing, duration of recall, methods of analysis, and sample biases. Clearly prospective methods are likely to be more accurate but are too expensive to use in most large-scale surveys. Internationally, most surveys use a point-in-time or current status measurement ...
