Article Factors Associated With Low Childbirth Self-Efficacy for Vaginal Birth in High-Risk Pregnant Women(Wiley, 2025) Sariboga, Yilmaz; Gurkan, Zeynep; Sarikaya, RemziBackground: Low childbirth self-efficacy is a significant indicator of vaginal birth and is closely related to adverse perinatal outcomes. Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate factors associated with low childbirth self-efficacy for vaginal birth in high-risk pregnant women. Methods: This descriptive study was conducted between July and December 2022 in Van, Turkey, with a total of 200 participants. Data collection instruments included a Socio-demographic Questionnaire and the Self-Efficacy Regarding Vaginal Birth (SEVB) scale. Independent t-test, chi-square test and multivariable binary logistic regression were employed for data analysis. Results: The mean age of the participants was 27.74 +/- 5.12 years, and the mean gestational age was 33.22 +/- 4.28 weeks. Unplanned pregnancy status (p = 0.002), a history of caesarean section (p = 0.013), multiparity (p = 0.001), age (p < 0.01) and gestational age (p = 0.001) were associated with low childbirth self-efficacy for vaginal birth. In multivariate analysis, only age (B: 1111; 95% CI: 1038-1189; p = 0.002) and gestational age (B: 1120; 95% CI: 1034-1214; p = 0.004; and p = 0.005) were independently associated with low childbirth self-efficacy. Conclusions: Low childbirth self-efficacy for vaginal birth was associated with higher maternal age and gestational ages. Identifying high-risk pregnant women with low childbirth self-efficacy will improve the care process for women and their newborns.Article The Relationship Between Covid-19 Fear and Prenatal Attachment of Pregnant Women in the Pandemic(Aves, 2022) Sariboga, Yilmaz; Sir, Ozkan; Atas, Sinan; Gokmen, Burcu DemirAIM: The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between COVID-19 fear and the prenatal attachment of pregnant women in the pandemic. METHOD: The sample of this cross-sectional and descriptive study consisted of 377 participants aged 18-45. The study was conducted from August to December 2021 in the east of Turkey. The data were collected using the SocioDemographic Questionnaire, Fear of COVID-19 Scale, and Prenatal Attachment Inventory. RESULTS: The mean Prenatal Attachment Inventory total score was 58.20 +/- 10.61. The mean Fear of COVID-19 Scale total score of the women in the study was 24.43 +/- 6.61. In this study, significant differences in prenatal attachment were observed for age, education, number of pregnancies, pregnancy week, and number of children. Moreover, the fear of COVID-19 was detected as a statistically significant difference between the COVID-19 status and having several children (p < .05). CONCLUSION: There was a link found between fear of COVID-19 and prenatal attachment in pregnant women. Health centers were recommended to provide training and support programs to solve the fear caused by COVID-19 and improve women's prenatal attachment.
