description | The aim of the current study is to develop Mother Infant Contact Barriers Scale (MICBS) and to investigate its validity and reliabil-ity. The study was conducted with two separete samples consisted of women who give full-term and preterm birth. To conduct explaratory and confirmatory factor analysis, the first sample was composed of 238 women aged between 19 and 43 (M = 30.33, SD = 4.00). The other sample in which second confirmatory factor analysis was conducted consisted of 194 women aged between 18 and 43 (M = 30.12, SD = 4.96). Depression Anxiety Stres Scale (DASS) and Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC), and Maternal Attachment Inventory (MAI) were used in this study as well as The Mother Infant Contact Barriers Scale (MICBS). In the exploratory factor analysis, four factors were obtained, namely “Postpartum Physical Contact Barriers”, “Mother-Infant Relation-ship and Harmony Difficulties”, “Negative Experiences Regarding Birth” and “Positive Emotions Regarding Postpartum First Contact”. The results of the confirmatory factor analysis demonstrated that the obtained model fit indices were within acceptable limits and the validity and reliability values of the scale were sufficient. It has been shown that MICBS is a scale with satisfactory psychometric properties that could be used in maternal and infant health research conducted in Turkey. |
