Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

To evaluate the effects of gestational age and other factors on maternal attachment relationship. There are different results in studies examining the effects of birth type on postpartum depression and mother-infant interaction. The aim of this study was to evaluate factors which affected mother-infant bond (MIB) using maternal attachment inventory (MAI).

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Behavioral: Maternal Attachment Inventory Score

Detailed Description

The Maternal Attachment Inventory (MAI) measure maternal love attachment (9). Muller tested the MAI questions in two phases; maternal adaptation and maternal attachmentEach item is evaluated by a 4-way to 26-point Likert-type scale ranging from "always" to "never". Always is calculated as (a) = 4 points, often (b) = 3 points, sometimes (c) = 2 points and never (d) = 1 point. The lowest score which could be obtained from the scale that measures maternal emotions and behaviors indicating love is 26, the high score is 104, and a high score indicates a high maternal attachment (12).

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
women giving birth by normal vaginal delivery

100 women delivered vaginally. . They were examined three month after delivery using Maternal Attachment Inventory (MAI) and a detailed history was taken. Women aged 18 to 45 years who delivered at term and had natural pregnancy (without any ART method),

Behavioral: Maternal Attachment Inventory Score
three month after delivery using Maternal Attachment Inventory (MAI) and a detailed history was taken.

women giving birth by c-section

100 delivered with cesarean section. They were examined three month after delivery using Maternal Attachment Inventory (MAI) and a detailed history was taken. Women aged 18 to 45 years who delivered at term and had natural pregnancy (without any ART method),

Behavioral: Maternal Attachment Inventory Score
three month after delivery using Maternal Attachment Inventory (MAI) and a detailed history was taken.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Compare mother-infant bond (MIB) scores between the vaginal delivery and the C-section (C/S) groups. [3 months]

    They were examined three month after delivery using Maternal Attachment Inventory (MAI); Each item is evaluated by a 4-way to 26-point Likert-type scale ranging from "always" to "never". Always is calculated as (a) = 4 points, often (b) = 3 points, sometimes (c) = 2 points and never (d) = 1 point. The lowest score which could be obtained from the scale that measures maternal emotions and behaviors indicating love is 26, the high score is 104, and a high score indicates a high maternal attachment

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. evaluate the correlations between the MIB scores and their sociodemographic data. [3 months]
