Group Intervention Description Intervention Group Web-Based Education Program Mothers were assigned to groups by simple randomization method. The website was designed, mothers were given their usernames and passwords and their memberships were created. Pretests (Parent-Baby Introductory Information Form, Quality of Life Scale and Generalized Perceived Self-Efficacy Scale) were administered via the website. Mothers completed the modules in the web-based training program within four weeks. Four weeks later, posttests (Quality of Life Scale and Generalized Perceived Self-Efficacy Scale) were administered via the website.
