모유수유 유무와 아기의 신체적, 정서적 발달과의 관계, 모유수유 성공에 영향을 주는 요소, 모유수유를 성공시키기 위한 전략 등 모유수유를 증진시키기 위한 연구는 많이 이루어 졌다. 이에 비하여 모유수유가 어머니의 모성행위, 어머니의 만족에 미치는 영향 등 모유수유 유무가 어머니의 정서에 미치는 영향에 관한 조사는 거의 이루어지지 않은 실정이다. 그러나 많은 모성간호사들은 모유수유 어머니가 인공수유 어머니보다 아기 양육에 더 자신감을 갖고 있고, 어머니로서의 역할에 더 만족한다고 믿고 있다. 또한 피치못할 사정으로 인공수유를 하는 어머니들 스스로도 모유수유를 하지 못함 때문에 아기에 대한 죄의식을 갖고 있을 수 있다. 그래서 생후 4개월된 아기를 갖고 있는 어머니를 대상으로 모유수유 유무와 어머니의 모성역할 긴장과 모성역할 획득 정도에 차이를 연구하였다. 연구결과 모유수유 유무에 따라 모성역할 획득정도에 차이가 없었으며, 모성역할 긴장에도 차이가 없었다. 또한 남편의 지지와 친척 및 친구의 지지를 공변량으로 처리하여 모유수유 유무에 따라 모성역할 획득정도에 차이를 알아 본 결과 모유수유 유무에 따라 모성역할 획득 정도에 차이가 없었고, 모성역할 긴장 역시 차이가 없었다.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of the maternal health care program on pregnant women's depression, maternal role self-confidence and delivery self-efficacy in a public health center. Methods: This study used a non-equivalent control group quasi-experiment design attempted to verify the effectiveness of maternal health care program. In the experimental group (39 participants), maternal health care program was applied for 120 minutes for 8 weeks, and the control group (40 participants) was provided with a booklet for maternal health care. Data collection was conducted from September 20, 2015 to November 30, 2015. Data were analyzed using ${\chi}^2-test$, Fisher's exact test and t-test. Results: The maternal health care program showed a significant effect on maternal role self-confidence and delivery self-efficacy compared to control group. Conclusion: The maternal health care program conducted at the public health center was found to be effective in improving maternal role self-confidence and delivery self-efficacy. Further development of a program to mediate the depression of the expectant mothers is needed.

Purpose: Purpose of this study was to identify the effects on maternal role strain, maternal role confidence and maternal identity of a maternal role promotion program for mothers of premature infants. Method: A quasi-experimental non-equivalent pre-and-post test was used to compare the two groups. The data were collected from 62 mothers from September 10. 2003 to August 30, 2004 at Neonatal Intensive Care Unit(NICU) located in S. city and K. city. The maternal role promotion program was provided three times during the period from two-three days after the baby's admission to 1 month after the baby's discharge. The instruments for measurement were the Perceived Role Difficulty & Steffensmeier Scale, Self Confidence Scale and Semantic Differential Scale. Data were analyzed by means of frequency, mean and SD, $x^2$-test and t-test. Results: There were significant differences in maternal role strain level between the experimental and control group (t=2.163, p=.035), in the maternal role confidence between the two groups(t=-5.645, p=.000) and in maternal identity between the two groups(t=-4.923, p=.000). Conclusion: The results of this study indicate that the maternal role promotion program had positive effects in decreasing maternal role strain levels and increasing maternal role confidence and maternal identity.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of Kangaroo Care(KC) on anxiety, maternal role confidence, and maternal infant attachment of mothers who delivered preterm infants. Methods: The research design was a nonequivalent control group pretest-posttest. Data was collected from September 1. 2006 to June 20. 2007. The participants were 22 mothers in the experimental group and 21 in the control group. KC was applied three times per day, for a total of ten times in 4 days to the experimental group. Results: The degree of anxiety was statistically significantly different between the two groups but maternal role confidence and maternal infant attachment was statistically insignificant. Conclusion: This data suggests that KC was effective for mothers anxiety relief but it was not effective for maternal role confidence and maternal infant attachment of mothers. The implications for nursing practice and directions for future research need to be discussed.

Data was collected from March 1st to October 31st, 2007. A hand-out including the knowledge of preterm labor, fetus state and curing process. The tool for the stress had 14 questionnaires including the levels of anxiety and depress. And the tool for the maternal role confidence had 23 questionnaires. The data analyzed by $X^2$-test, t-test and pearson correlation coefficient with SPSS 12.0/pc program. Results: After providing information, the stress of the experimental group decreased significantly than the control(t=1.95, p=.048). And the maternal role confidence of the experimental group increased significantly than the control(t=-2.40, p=.016). There is a significant correlation between the stress and maternal role confidence(p<.01). Conclusion: The special program or educational nursing intervention should be created for each pregnant women with preterm labor and ante-natal nursing service may assessed and consulted on anxiety-depression and maternal role confidence.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of a discharge education program on maternal role confidence and parenting stress of mothers who delivered premature infants. The program provided them with information on childrearing and supportive educational nursing care. Method: This study was based on pretest-posttest nonequivalent nonsynchronized quasi-experimental design. The participants in this study were 30 mothers who delivered premature infants at a general hospital in G city. The instruments used in this study were Maternity Confidence Inventory, Parenting Stress Index(PSI). Results: The first hypothesis that the mothers in the experimental group would undergo changes in maternal role confidence after the intervention was accepted, as there was a statistically significant gap between the two groups(F=9.386, P=.000). The second hypothesis that mothers in the experimental group would undergo change in parenting stress after the intervention was accepted, as there was a statistically significant gap between the two groups(F=4.425, P=.380). Conclusion: The findings suggest that the Discharge Education Program was an efficient intervention method to boost the maternal confidence of mothers with premature infants and to decrease their parenting stress.

Purpose: This study was done to investigate the predictors of maternal confidence between primipara and multipara mothers. Methods: The participants enrolled in this study were 145 mothers between 2 and 5 days postpartum. Data were collected using a questionnaire and analyzed using descriptive analysis, t-test, $X^2$ test, ANOVA, Pearson correlation coefficients, and stepwise multiple regression. Results: The predictors of maternal confidence among primipara mothers were social support, self-esteem, mode of delivery ($R^2$=.287, p<.001). Whereas, gender of baby, antenatal fetal attachment, and educational status explained maternal confidence among multipara mothers ($R^2$=.270, p<.001). Conclusion: The results indicate that when nurses develop programs to encourage maternal confidence for new mothers, they should take into account the differences between predictors of maternal confidence according to the mothers' experience of birth.

Purpose: This study was done to develop and test a maternal role strengthening program based on home care nursing. Methods: A quasi-experimental design was employed. Changes in the variables(maternal identity and confidence of maternal role) were evaluated to test the effects of the developed program. Participants were first-time mothers receiving home care nursing from S Medical Center following normal spontaneous vaginal delivery(experimental group 29; control group 29). Data collection was conducted from December 2008 to February 2009. $X^2$-test, Fisher's exact test and t-test were used to analyse the data. Results: Hypothesis 1, that the experimental group receiving this program would experience a stronger maternal identity than the control group, was supported(t=-7.990, p=<.001). Hypothesis 2, that the experimental group would have higher confidence in their maternal role than the control group, was also supported(t=-10.109, p=<.001). Conclusion: The maternal role strengthening program based on home care nursing developed in this study was found to be an effective means of improving maternal identity and confidence of maternal role. As these traits are developed once the baby is born, active nursing programs which provide continuous training and demonstrations to mothers are needed prior to hospitalization and following hospital discharge.

Purpose: The purposes of this descriptive survey study were to describe postpartum depression level and to identify the influence of postpartum depression on maternal role confidence, parenting stress and infant temperament, in order to develop a base for nursing intervention programs for mothers who have postpartum depression. Method: Data were collected from 183 mothers of infants who visited one public health center in Goyang city. The instrument used for this study was a self-report questionnaire to identify the postpartum depression (BDI), maternal role confidence, parenting stress (PSI) and infant temperament (WBL). Results: Of the mothers 42.1% were in the normal range for postpartum depression, 33.3% in the mild group and 24.6% were in the moderate to severe group. There were significant differences in parenting stress, and infant temperament according to level of postpartum depression. There were correlations between maternal role confidence (r=-0.13), infant temperament (r=-0.20), parenting stress (r=0.51) and postpartum depression, and weak negative correlation between parenting stress and infant temperament (r=-0.30). Conclusion: Postpartum depression in the infant period when the mother's role is very important and the effect is not only on the mother's role but also on the infant's growth. It is essential to assess and provide immediate care to mothers who have postpartum depression.
