Perceived social support and interpersonal dependency were studied as potential factors associated with lactation duration based upon previous breastfeeding experience. Inexperienced breastfeeding mothers perceived more social support than experienced breastfeeding mothers did. Perceived social support was not significantly correlated with lactation duration. An ancillary finding was that women providing a combination of breast milk and human milk substitutes had significantly lower social self-confidence than did mothers providing breast milk exclusively.
基于之前的母乳喂养经历,对感知到的社会支持和人际依赖作为与哺乳期相关的潜在因素进行了研究。无经验的母乳喂养母亲比有经验的母乳喂养母亲感知到更多的社会支持。感知到的社会支持与哺乳期没有显著相关性。一个附带的发现是,同时提供母乳和母乳替代品的女性比仅提供母乳的母亲的社会自信心显著更低。
