Outline of Final Research Achievements

[Objective] The objective of this study is to clarify characteristics of responsiveness during the early postpartum period for high-risk mothers and to evaluate methods of assistance for improving the mothers’ responsiveness to newborn infants.
[Study method] This study targeted first-time mothers and their infants born at University Hospital. The AMIS Scale was used as the behavior evaluation benchmark for mother and infant during breastfeeding, the the MABS was used to evaluate mothers’ recognition of newborn or infant, and STAI was used as an index for the mothers’ psychological traits.
[Results] Among score correlation, a strong correlation (p=0.05) was observed for the mother score and the speed at which the mother recognized the infant rs=0.9 as well as the AMIS infant score and the two-party relationship score rs=0.83. As such, this study indicated that the mother’s awareness correlated to behavior and the state of the child had a greater impact than that of the mother.
