“…Increased PDS screening during prenatal and postpartum visits and promotion of lactation support services may better address the high rates of PDS and suboptimal breastfeeding behavior (Bascom, E.M. and Napolitano., 2015) Various studies have shown that breastfeeding self-efficacy is an important factor related to initiation, duration, and exclusive breastfeeding (McQueen, KA, Dennis, CL, Stremler, R, Norman, 2011). The results of research by (Handayani, L., Kosnin, A. M., & Jiar, 2010) found that there was a close relationship between social support, knowledge, attitudes, and self-efficacy with breastfeeding behavior. Other studies have found that mothers who have high breastfeeding self-efficacy tend to continue breastfeeding for 4 months (Blyth, R., Creedy, D. K., Dennis, C.-L., Moyle, W., Pratt, J., & De Vries, 2022).…”

Factors that affect the success of breastfeeding are the intentions for breastfeeding and the self-efficacy of the mother. According to Blyth et al., (2002), mothers with high breastfeeding intentions and self-efficacy are more likely to exclusively breastfeed in one week and four months after delivery than those with low self-efficacy. To determine the effect of lactation education on the self-efficacy of breastfeeding mothers. The study design was the quasi-experiment, pre-test, and post-test with a control group design. Samples of mothers (gestational age ?28-32 weeks) were divided into 3 groups: 1) those who received lactation and modification modules (n = 21), 2) a group that only received modification modules (n = 21), and 3) a group that only received the maternal and child health books (n = 20). Data were collected using questionnaires, self-efficacy measurements were performed before lactation education was performed, and after 6 months of age. In initial measurement results (t0), the median self-efficacy score of respondents was between 60-79, while the median self-efficacy score of the mother at the final measurement (t1) was between 60-88. The highest score increase occurred in group 1, then group 3. The median test result showed there was a difference in self-efficacy between the three groups (p= 0,002). This finding means that lactation education has an effect on the practice of exclusive breastfeeding. This can be seen in group 1 which has the highest self-efficacy score and also has the highest percentage of exclusive breastfeeding percentage of all groups.

“…Allport (2008) views attitude as a mental and neural state of preparation organized by experience and states that it directs an individual's reactions against all objects and situations with a dynamic effect on them. Positive or negative attitudes towards an object determine positive or negative behaviors towards that object (Handayani, 2011). Therefore, individuals' attitudes towards a situation should be taken into consideration.…”

This study aims to develop an attitude scale for the measurement of classroom and preschool teachers' attitudes towards educational games. Using a five-point Likert scale, a final form consisting of 48 items were applied to 405 different preSchool and classroom Teachers working in different cities of Turkey. Exploratory and Confirmatory Factor Analysis were conducted on the data in order to prove construct validity of the scale. Exploratory Factor Analysis demonstrated that the scale had a construct with two sub-factors. The first sub-factor consisting of 14 items explains 46.09% of the variance for the related attitude variable, while the second sub-factor consisting of 6 items explains 13.42% of the variance for the related attitude variable. Both sub-factors explain 59.51% of the variance for the related attitude variable. These factors were named as "positive attitude" and "negative attitude" by the authors. In addition, item test correlation was performed in order to prove item validity, and it was observed that item test correlations varied between 0.55 and 0.81. Confirmatory factor analysis was also performed to verify the construct obtained from exploratory factor analysis, and it was calculated as [χ2/df=3.54 (p=.
