Recent research indicates that most mothers give up breast feeding their infants early in the postpartum period due to difficulties with breast feeding and the belief that they are inefficient at breast feeding. Using self-efficacy theory as a conceptual framework to measure breast-feeding confidence, a Turkish version of the Breast-feeding Self-Efficacy Scale (BSES) was developed and psychometrically tested among Turkish mothers.
To translate the BSES into Turkish and assess its psychometric properties among breast-feeding mothers.
A methodological study to assess the reliability, validity and predictive value of the BSES.
Women were recruited from two mother and child health-care units in the Altındağ district in Izmir, Turkey between 2006 and 2007, and followed up two months post partum.
165 Turkish-speaking women.
Following back-translation, questionnaires were completed in hospital and at home by postnatal women. The BSES was administrated at one, four and eight weeks post partum to determine the method of infant feeding. The interviews and home visits were conducted in mothers' own homes at a mutually convenient time.
The psychometric assessment method used to validate the original BSES (English version) was replicated with the translated Turkish version. The well-concordance coefficient of Kendall's W scale was 0.227, p<0.01 and the test-retest reliability coefficient was 0.45. The consistency of the scale in terms of temporal process was efficient (p = 0.00). Cronbach's alpha coefficient was 0.91 and 0.92 at one and four weeks post partum, respectively, and the reliability of the scale was found to be high (0.80 ≤ α<1.00).
The Turkish version of the BSES can be used to determine which mothers are at risk of giving up breast feeding early in the postpartum period, and the subjects they need to learn about breast feeding.
最近的研究表明，由于母乳喂养困难以及认为自己母乳喂养效率低下，大多数母亲在产后早期就放弃了母乳喂养她们的婴儿。本研究以自我效能理论为概念框架，测量母乳喂养信心，开发了土耳其版母乳喂养自我效能量表（BSES）并在土耳其母亲中进行了心理测量学测试。
将 BSES 翻译成土耳其语，并评估其在母乳喂养母亲中的心理测量特性。
评估 BSES 可靠性、有效性和预测值的方法学研究。
2006 年至 2007 年期间，在土耳其伊兹密尔的阿尔塔恩达格的两个母婴保健单位招募了妇女，并在产后两个月进行了随访。
165 名讲土耳其语的妇女。
在回译之后，在医院和家中通过邮寄方式让产后妇女填写问卷。在产后 1、4 和 8 周时，通过 BSES 确定婴儿的喂养方式。访谈和家访在母亲自己的家中，在双方方便的时间进行。
用于验证原始 BSES（英文版）的心理测量评估方法被复制到翻译后的土耳其语版本中。肯德尔 W 量表的良好一致性系数为 0.227，p<0.01，重测信度系数为 0.45。该量表在时间过程方面的一致性是有效的（p=0.00）。产后 1 周和 4 周时，量表的克朗巴赫 α 系数分别为 0.91 和 0.92，量表的可靠性很高（0.80≤α<1.00）。
土耳其语版 BSES 可用于确定哪些母亲在产后早期有放弃母乳喂养的风险，以及她们需要了解母乳喂养的内容。
