Brief Summary

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

Background and study aims: A prospective quasi-experimental study will be conducted among nulliparous women from the ultra-orthodox Jewish community.

Study design: While the control group participated in routine childbirth education, the intervention group learned with childbirth education that included interactive and constructive cognitive engagement activities. Participants in both groups completed a set of questionnaires regarding knowledge, attitudes, and self-efficacy.

Detailed Description

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

Background: Upright labor positions and movement during labor have a positive effect on childbirth, yet the predominant labor positions are still horizontal. Therefore, it is important to explore how it is possible to improve childbirth education, particularly its instructional design, to strengthen women's self-efficacy toward the use of upright positions and mobility during labor. The aim of the study was to evaluate the impact of an instructional approach based on a cognitive engagement ICAP (Interactive, Constructive, Active, Passive) framework on the development of knowledge, attitudes, and self-efficacy expectations toward upright positions and mobility during labor.

Methods: A prospective quasi-experimental study was conducted among nulliparous women from the ultra-orthodox Jewish community (n=74). While the control group (n = 34) participated in routine childbirth education, the intervention group (n = 36) learned with childbirth education that included interactive and constructive cognitive engagement activities. Participants in both groups completed a set of questionnaires regarding knowledge, attitudes, and self-efficacy.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Control group

The control group (n = 34) participated in routine childbirth education. The group received the same content via a childbirth class as the intervention group of five meetings (a total of 12.5 hours) given by a nurse midwife.

Women in the control group received a routine instructional approach which was based on lectures, videos, discussions, and practice/rehearsals.

Intervention group

The intervention group (n= 36) learned with childbirth education that included interactive and constructive cognitive engagement activities.

The intervention group received the same content as the control group (a total of 12.5 hours), however, the content regarding upright positions and mobility was instructed using the ICAP constructive-interactive engagement modes.
