结局指标
主要结局
Paternal-Infant Attachment Scale
时间窗: This assessment scale will be administered to the father one month following the baby's discharge from the hospital.
The scale developed to assess father-infant bonding after birth is a 19-item scale. It consists of three subdimensions: 'patience and tolerance,' 'enjoyment in interaction,' and 'love and pride'. Twelve items in the scale are reverse-coded. Higher scores indicate a higher level of bonding. While the original version of the scale consists of 19 items, the Turkish version comprises 18 items. The Cronbach's alpha coefficient of the scale was reported to be 0.81 at 6 months and 0.78 at 12 months.
