The research, planned in a randomized controlled quasi-experimental design, will be carried out with nulliparous pregnant women (n:104) who apply to the Non-Stress Test polyclinic of the University of Health Sciences Istanbul Bağcılar Training and Research Hospital. Pregnant women who voluntarily participate in the research will be divided into intervention (n: 52) and control (n: 52) groups according to the computer-assisted simple random sampling technique. The intervention group, nulliparous pregnant women, will listen to 3 podcasts of 5-6 minutes. Pregnant women in the control group will be given a booklet on the pregnancy and birth process from the Ministry of Health as part of routine care. "Personal Information Form", "State-Trait Anxiety Inventory", "Wijma Birth Expectation/Experience Scale Version A" and "Prenatal Attachment Inventory" will be applied to all pregnant women included in the study.

The sample of the research will consist of 104 pregnant women who meet the sample selection criteria and participate in the study. Pregnant women who volunteer to participate in the research will be included in the study. The study will be carried out in two groups: the "intervention group", which receives prenatal education with podcasts, and the "control group", which receives routine care.

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Introductory Information Form

Time Frame: 10 minutes

Reported based on the literature, the form includes questions regarding socio-demographic data and obstetric characteristics of nulliparous pregnant women. Regarding demographic characteristics, the form includes age, gestational age, education level, income may change, spousal support, spouse and individual baby wish status, prenatal follow-up numbers, pregnancy planning status, prenatal education and information availability and where it was obtained. has been given.

State-Trait Anxiety Inventory(D-SKE)

Time Frame: 10 minutes

It contains two separate scales: State Anxiety Inventory (SCI) and Trait Anxiety Inventory (SCI), which consist of a total of 40 items. There are two types of expressions in D-SKE. Direct expressions express negative emotions, while reverse expressions express positive emotions. In the DCI, the reverse statements are items 1, 2, 5, 8, 10, 11, 15, 16, 19 and 20. In SCI, reverse statements constitute items 21, 26, 27, 30, 33, 36 and 39. After the total weights of direct and reverse expressions are found separately, the total weight score of reverse expressions is subtracted from the total weight score obtained for direct expressions. A predetermined and unchanging value is added to this number. This unchanged value is 50 for DKE and 35 for SKE. The final value obtained is the individual's anxiety score. A large score indicates a high level of anxiety, and a small score indicates a low level of anxiety.

Prenatal Attachment Inventory (PBI)

Time Frame: 10 minutes

PBI was developed to explain the thoughts, feelings and situations experienced by women during pregnancy and to determine the level of attachment to the baby in the prenatal period and consists of a total of 21 items. Each item in the PBI is a four-point Likert-type scale with a score between 1 and 4. In PBI, "Never" is scored as 1, "Sometimes" as 2, "Frequently" as 3, and "Always" as 4. A minimum of 21 and a maximum of 84 points can be obtained from PBI. The increase in the score obtained from the PBI indicates that the attachment level of the pregnant woman also increases.

Wijma Birth Expectation/Experience Scale Version A (W-DEQ A)

Time Frame: 10 minutes

The scale consists of 33 items. The answers on the scale are numbered from 0 to 5 and are in a six-point Likert type. 0 means "completely" and 5 means "not at all". The minimum score that can be obtained from the scale is 0 and the maximum score is 165. It is calculated by reversing items 2, 3, 6, 7, 8, 11, 12, 15, 19, 20, 24, 25, 27, 31 of the scale. It is stated that as the score obtained from the scale increases, the fear of birth experienced by women increases. W-DEQ A scores on the scale; women who have low degree of fear of childbirth (W-DEQ A score ≤37), women who have moderate fear of childbirth (those with W-DEQ A score=38-65), women who have severe fear of childbirth (W-DEQ A score=66-84). ) and those with clinical degree of fear of childbirth (W-DEQ A score ≥85).
