Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

I am conducting an experimental study examining the bonding between father and baby.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The experimental group and the control group (1st group and 2nd group) will be formed by randomly selecting the spouses of women who applied to Afşin State Hospital and Elbistan State Hospital Gynecology Polyclinic. Fathers in the first group will be met face-to-face with powerpoints and visuals, and training will be provided. It is planned to provide a total of 3 educations by contacting fathers at the time of birth and 2 months after birth. The scope of the 1st education is planned to be about attachment, father-infant attachment, the benefits of father-infant attachment to the baby and the father and how this bond can be strengthened. Care and feeding of the baby is planned within the scope of the second education. In the third education, it is planned to inform the father about spending quality time with the baby and its importance. As a result, the first education will be focused on more about attachment and its importance, the second education will focus on the importance of the father's participation in the care of the baby and the information about care, and the last education the importance of the father's taking care of the baby and spending time with him. Fathers in the second group will be given a training brochure at the end of the 6th month, after the scale is applied. If the baby's health is affected by possible adverse events at birth, that father will be excluded from the study. After the birth with the fathers, when the baby reaches 6-12 months, face-to-face or phone calls will be applied and the father-infant attachment status will be analyzed by statistical analysis. The study will be done as pre-test and post-test. Güleç D. and Kavlak O. examined the validity of the father-infant Attachment Scale in Turkish society, and they came up with a questionnaire consisting of 19 questions in total.

Detail added (15.06.2021): Power analysis was performed with the study from 5 control groups from 5 experimental groups. A total of 58 workers, consisting of 29 experimental and 29 control groups, were found sufficient for the study
