ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the mediating effect of the childbirth self-efficacy between mind-fulness level and fear of childbirth in pregnant women. Methods A total of 285 pregnant women were measured with five facet mindfulness questionnaire(FFMQ),childbirth attitude questionnaire(FOC),and the short form of the Chinese childbirth self-efficacy inventory(CBSEI-C32). Results The scores of mindful-ness level, fear of childbirth, outcome expectancy and self-efficacy expectancy were ( 127. 51 ± 11. 12), (31. 44±8. 84),(109. 36±30. 52) and(110. 02±30. 03),respectively. Pearson correlation analysis showed that mindfulness level was positively correlated with outcome expectancy and self-efficacy expectancy ( r=0. 247,r=0. 235,both P<0. 01),while negatively correlated with fear of childbirth(r=-0. 274,P<0. 01). Outcome expectancy and self-efficacy expectancy were negatively correlated with fear of childbirth ( r=-0. 251,r=-0. 233,both P<0. 01). The mediating effect of outcome expectancy and self-efficacy expectancy between mindfulness level and fear of childbirth was significant(P<0. 01),and the mediating effect sizes were 17. 8% and 15. 6%, respectively. Conclusion Childbirth self-efficacy partly mediates mindfulness level and fear of childbirth in pregnant women.
