The morning after giving birth in a large urban hospital, 121 African American adolescents participating in a community doula program identified the people who had been with them during labor and birth and narrated their birth stories. Besides medical providers, the people most likely to be present for the birth were the infants' fathers ( = 73, 60%), the mothers' mothers ( = 70, 58%), and their doulas ( = 100, 83%). Birth stories were coded to identify types of support provided by different people. Mothers' mothers, infants' fathers, and doulas were more likely to be mentioned in the stories as providers of emotional and instrumental support than were medical providers. Doulas were more likely to be mentioned as providers of information than were family members or medical providers.
在一家大型城市医院分娩后的第二天早晨，121名参与社区导乐项目的非裔美国青少年，说出了在分娩过程中陪伴他们的人，并讲述了他们的分娩故事。除了医疗人员外，最有可能在分娩时在场的人是婴儿的父亲（n = 73，占60%）、母亲的母亲（n = 70，占58%）以及他们的导乐（n = 100，占83%）。对分娩故事进行编码，以确定不同的人所提供的支持类型。在故事中，母亲的母亲、婴儿的父亲和导乐比医疗人员更有可能被提及为情感和物质支持的提供者。与家庭成员或医疗人员相比，导乐更有可能被提及为信息提供者。
