Abstract

Amaç: Çalışmanın amacı baba-bebek bağlanma düzeyini ve etkileyen faktörleri belirlemektir.
Yöntem: Bu kesitsel ve tanımlayıcı çalışmaya 6-12 aylık bebeği olan 118 baba dahil edildi. Veriler Tanıtıcı Bilgi Formu ve Baba-Bebek Bağlanma Ölçeği (PIAS) kullanılarak toplanmıştır. Verilerin değerlendirilmesinde tanımlayıcı istatistikler, bağımsız örneklem t testi, Mann-Whitney U testi, Kruskal Wallis testi ve Backward Stepwise Regresyon analizi kullanıldı.
Bulgular: Babaların PIAS puan ortalaması 75.22’dir. Sosyal güvencesi ve evlilik ilişki algısı iyi olan babaların PIAS puan ortalamalarının anlamlı olarak daha yüksekti. Bezini değiştiren, uyutan, banyo ve masaj yaptıran babaların bağlanma puanları yaptırmayanlara göre yüksek olduğu bulundu (p<0.01) ve bebeğini uyutan babaların %10.4 bağlanma puanlarının arttığı belirlendi.
Sonuç: Bu araştırmada bebeğinin altını değiştiren, uyutan, banyo yaptıran ve masaj yapan babaların bağlanma puanları, yapmayanlara göre daha yüksek bulunmuştur.

Father-Baby Attachment Levels and Influencing Factors

Abstract

Objective: The aim of the study was to determine father-infant attachment levels and the affecting factors.
Methods: Descriptive study included 118 fathers of infants between the ages of 6-12 months. Data were collected using the Descriptive Information Form and the Paternal-Infant Attachment Scale (PIAS). Descriptive statistics, independent sample t-tests, Mann-Whitney U test, the Kruskal Wallis test, and Backward Stepwise Regression were used.
Results: The PIAS score average of fathers was 75.22. Fathers with social security and good marital relationships had significantly higher PIAS scores. Changed diapers, bathed, and messaged obtained significantly higher attachment scores than those who did not (p<0.01), and 10.4 % attachment scores of those who put their baby to sleep increased.
Conclusion: In the current study, the attachment scores of fathers who changed their babies' diapers, put them to sleep, bathe and massage them were higher than those who did not.
