To identify and organize the perceived needs, goals, and strategies of teen mothers.
Qualitative, using a microethnographic design. Data collection strategies included focus groups and interviews in a naturalistic setting. The sample consisted of five unmarried 18-year-old mothers enrolled in an urban high school in a southern state. Data were analyzed using a clustering technique and a modified multistage method of content analysis.
Teen mothers identified their needs as support and knowledge. Goals were happiness, independence, and career, and strategies were a support group, life skills education, formal education, and a job. A model was developed incorporating these themes.
Nurses can use the findings of this study to develop support groups for adolescent mothers that offer peer support and education about teen and child needs, are flexible and multidisciplinary, are supportive and accepting, have a comfortable physical environment, and include the adolescents' children and occasionally grandparents.
识别并梳理青少年母亲所感知到的需求、目标及策略。
采用微观人种志设计的定性研究。数据收集策略包括在自然环境中进行焦点小组讨论和访谈。样本包括五位就读于南部某州一所城市高中的未婚18岁母亲。使用聚类技术和改良的多阶段内容分析法对数据进行分析。
青少年母亲将她们的需求确定为支持和知识。目标是幸福、独立和职业发展，策略是成立支持小组、进行生活技能教育、接受正规教育和找工作。据此构建了一个包含这些主题的模型。
护士可利用本研究结果为青少年母亲建立支持小组，该小组应提供同伴支持以及关于青少年和儿童需求的教育，具备灵活性和多学科性，给予支持和接纳，拥有舒适的物理环境，并纳入青少年的子女，偶尔还可包括祖父母。
