We studied factors which influence the duration of breastfeeding by 81 primigravidas by use of a Likert-type questionnaire. Three primary independent variables related inversely to the duration of breastfeeding in a multiple regression analysis. The most important of these variables was maternal perception of difficulties in scheduling breastfeeding on her return to work (p less than 0.01). Also total family income (p less than 0.01) and maternal worries about the demands of breastfeeding (p less than 0.01) inversely related to the duration of breastfeeding. Causal analytical technique was used to identify secondary variables relating to the primary independent variables. Maternal worries about the demands of breastfeeding related strongly to her worries about the lack of family psychosocial support. Maternal age and complications of breastfeeding did not relate to the duration of breastfeeding.
我们通过使用李克特式问卷，研究了影响81名初产妇母乳喂养时长的因素。在多元回归分析中，有三个主要自变量与母乳喂养时长呈负相关。这些变量中最重要的是母亲对重返工作岗位后安排母乳喂养困难的认知（p<0.01）。此外，家庭总收入（p<0.01）和母亲对母乳喂养需求的担忧（p<0.01）也与母乳喂养时长呈负相关。采用因果分析技术来确定与主要自变量相关的次要变量。母亲对母乳喂养需求的担忧与她对家庭缺乏心理社会支持的担忧密切相关。母亲年龄和母乳喂养并发症与母乳喂养时长无关。
