Decision rules used by mothers to determine actions for tasks and events of infant feeding were described and factors contributing to their use (mothers' functions in regulating the feeding, maternal experience, and feeding method) were explored. A telephone interview surveyed 122 mothers of healthy term infants 14-60 days old. Both Decision Rules and Regulating Function (Maternal-, Infant-, or Mutual-Regulation) varied by feeding task or event examined. Decision Rules and Regulating Functions were associated only for burping during a feeding. Maternal experience (primiparity, multiparity) was not associated with either Decision Rule or Regulating Functions. For several feeding tasks or events, Decision Rule was more likely to be predicted by Regulating Function when feeding method (breast, bottle) was controlled. A mother's agenda for the feeding may be an important component of her internal working model of infant feeding and a factor in making decisions for action.
描述了母亲用于确定婴儿喂养任务和事件行动的决策规则，并探讨了促成其使用的因素（母亲在调节喂养中的作用、母亲的经验和喂养方式）。通过电话访谈对122名14至60日龄健康足月儿的母亲进行了调查。决策规则和调节功能（母亲调节、婴儿调节或相互调节）因所检查的喂养任务或事件而异。决策规则和调节功能仅在喂养期间拍嗝时相关。母亲的经验（初产、经产）与决策规则或调节功能均无关。对于多项喂养任务或事件，在控制喂养方式（母乳喂养、奶瓶喂养）时，调节功能更有可能预测决策规则。母亲的喂养议程可能是其婴儿喂养内部工作模式的重要组成部分，也是做出行动决策的一个因素。
