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.

모유를 아기에게 수유하는 것은 아기에게 영양ㆍ면역ㆍ위생ㆍ심리학적 등의 이점을 줄 수 있고 또, 아기의 부모에게는 경제적인 이점을 줄 수 있으며 수유방법 중 가장 바람직한 수유방법이다. 우리나라의 모유수유율은 2001년 국민건강ㆍ영양조사결과 생후 6개월까지 모유수유비율은 전체의 9.8%로 모유수유의 권장운동에도 불구하고 매우 낮은 실정으로 모유수유 영양교육이 꼭 필요하다고 하겠다. (중략)

Purpose: This study was conducted to examine the behavioral intentions of breastfeeding in single women using the theory of planned behavior. Methods: The questionnaires were distributed to 350 single women in her 20~30s, and 316 respondents were analyzed by descriptive statistics, Spearman's correlation, and multiple regression analysis. Results: The subjects showed strong intentions and favorable attitudes toward breastfeeding. The subjects were more favorably influenced by their mothers, siblings, friends, and coworkers who previously experienced breastfeeding than ones with no breastfeeding experiences. There were significant correlations between breastfeeding intention and attitudes (r = 0.321, p < 0.0001), subjective norms (r = 0.434, p < 0.0001), and perceived control (r = 0.307, p < 0.0001). However, regression analysis with two different age groups revealed that subjective norms (p < 0.0001) and perceived control (p < 0.001) contributed to the model of explaining breastfeeding intentions in subjects who were 25 years old or younger, whereas attitudes did not. In addition, subjects who were more than 25 years old showed that attitudes (p < 0.003) and subjective norms (p = 0.002) contributed to the model of explaining breastfeeding intentions while perceived control (p < 0.070) showed less contribution. Conclusion: These results suggest that the theory of planned behavior can be a useful tool to increase the rate of breastfeeding intentions in single women when designing educational materials, which requires consideration of age differences.

Purpose : To investigate the success rate and factors that influence breast-feeding among women having antenatal breast-feeding plans. Methods : Questionnaires included items on success in breast-feeding, reasons for failure and perinatal factors. It was done by telephone calls to 152 randomly selected women having antenatal breast-feeding plans at 4 months after delivery. The questionnaires were analysed by bivariate ${\chi}^2$-analysis. Results : The breast-feeding rate for the first four months among women having antenatal breast-feeding plans was 37.5%. The major reason for breast-feeding failure was insufficient amount of breast milk(66.3%). The breast-feeding rate was 2.3(95% CI 1.15-4.62) times higher in women having antenatal breast-feeding plans for longer than 4 months(P<0.05), but maternal age, breast-feeding for previous baby, person advocating breast-feeding, and family size were not significant factors of success in breast-feeding. The breast-feeding rate of graduates of college was 0.43(95% CI 0.21-0.86) times lower than that of graduates of high school. The breast-feeding rate of employed mothers was 0.37(95% CI 0.17-0.83) times lower than that of housewives(P<0.05). Maternal disease, smoking, alcohol drinking, and understanding and knowledge about breast-feeding were not significant determinant factors of success in breast-feeding. Breast-feeding rate of infant born at local obstetric clinics was 3.97(95% CI 11-14.23) times higher than that of infant at general hospital(P<0.05). Conclusion : To increase the breast-feeding, medical personnel should educate mothers on problems during breast-feeding. Hospital polices that facilitate breast-feeding such as rooming-in must be promoted. For employed mothers, strategies for breast-feeding within companies must be encouraged.

Purpose : The objective of this survey was to develop an operational plan for breast feeding education. In order to comprehend current breast feeding patterns, we aimed to examine the knowledge, attitude and practices regarding breast feeding of mothers and to compare the data with a similar study done 6 years ago. Methods : A total of 127 mothers who delivered healthy babies at Ewha Womans University Dongdaemun Hospital were interviewed and asked to complete a survey on their perception of breast feeding during their postpartum stay in the hospital. A follow up phone interview was carried out at 1, 2 and 3 months after delivery and similar questions were asked. Results : At the time of delivery, 96.1 percent of mothers planned to breast feed, including 73.2 percent of exclusive breast feeding and 22.8 percent of mixed feeding. The duration of breast feeding planned was mostly 7-12 months. Breast feeding had been recommended by family members. Between 1-3 months, exclusive breast feeding was maintained at least 50 percent but a large number of mothers who had practiced mixed feeding changed to formula feeding. This trend demonstrates an increase in the rate of breast feeding at 3 months compared to a similar study done in 1999. The main reasons for discontinuing breast feeding were insufficient amount of milk(35.0 percent) and return to work(27.5 percent). Conclusion : Breast feeding rate has increased in Korea since 1999 but failure to continue exclusive breast feeding still occurs mainly within the first month after delivery. Breast feeding education should focus on supportive care to mothers practicing mixed feeding.

Objective : To investigate the understanding of breast-feeding in pregnant woman and the proper way of encouraging breast-feeding. Methods : Each questionnaire included items about demographic characteristics and the understanding of breast-feeding. The questionnaires were filled up by pregnant women visiting obstetric clinics in Seoul and its vicinities, Busan, Choongjoo and Chungjoo from July 2001 to August 2001. One thousand, two hundred ninety questionnaires were analysed by Chi square tests and multiple logistic regressions. Results : The majority of pregnant women(87.4%) planned breast-feeding. Forty three percent of them had plans to breast-feed for 4-6 months. There were no differences in the level of education, the family size and the source of information about breast-feeding in planning to breast-feed (P>0.05). The main reasons for not choosing to breast-feed were returns to work(41.3%), previous failures of breast-feeding(17.4%), concerns about insufficient amount of breast milk(10.9%), breast and nipple problems(10.3%) and maternal illness(9.4%). The average score on the test of the understanding about breast-feeding was 59.7/100. The average scores on the understanding about the methods and advantages of breast-feeding were 45.3/100 and 86.1/100, respectively. The maternal status of employment, previous history of breast-feeding, the time of decision to breastfeed, person advocating breast-feeding and the understanding on the advantages of breast-feeding were significant determinant factors in planning to breast-feed(P<0.05). Conclusion : Pediatricians should take steps to make an effort to increase the breast-feeding rate and to encourage breast-feeding by timely education. Beyond the medical field, political and social supports for breast-feeding are urgently needed.

모유가 인공유보다 아기에게 신체적, 정신적으로 바람직하다는 것은 강조할 필요가 없다. 모유수유율을 증가시키기 위하여는 간호사들이 아기어머니에게 모유수유와 관련된 지식을 전달하여, 모유수유를 실천할 수 있게 적극적으로 도와주어야 한다. 이 연구는 신생아나 산모와 함께 일하는 한국의 간호사 60명, 태국의 간호사 50명을 대상으로 모유수유에 관한 지식과 이 지식을 얼마나 어머니에게 전달하는지를 비교 조사한 것이다. 연구결과 한국 간호사보다 태국 간호사가 모유수유에 관한 정보를 어머니에게 더 제공하고 있었고, 더 적극적으로 모유수유를 할 수 있게 도와주고 있었다. 또한 태국병원의 체계도 모자동실을 실시하는 등 어머니가 아기를 낳은 직후부터 모자수유를 할 수 있게 되어있는 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 모유수유에 관한 지식정도를 비교한 결과 한국의 간호사가 태국의 간호사보다 더 정확한 지식을 갖고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이 연구 결과는 한국의 모성간호사들이 좀 더 적극적으로 어머니가 모유를 할 수 있도록 도와야 하며, 한국병원의 체계도 모유를 수유하기 쉽고 편안한 환경을 제공하여야 함을 나타내고 있었다. 또한 태국의 간호사와 한국의 모성간호사는 모유수유에 관한 최근의 지식을 정확하게 알아야 할 필요성을 제시하고 있었다.

The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of individual breast-feeding promotion program on breast-feeding attitude and breast-feeding practice in the non-equivalent control group non-synchronized design. The subjects of this study were 64 pregnant women who were more than 32 weeks of pregnancy period (Exp. group; 32, Con. group; 32) at a Maternal and Child health center. The data were analyzed with frequency, percentage, $x^2$-test and t-test using a SPSS statistical program. The results are as follows. The experimental group that participated in the individual breast-feeding promotion program was higher scores of breast-feeding attitude and breast-feeding practice rate than the control group. There was significant difference between two groups with time period change. In conclusion, this program could be an effective nursing intervention to improve breast-feeding attitude and breast-feeding practice.

The purpose of this study is to develop an educational program to promote breastfeeding by understanding the knowledge and attitudes of nursing students. The survey was conducted on 504 students in the first, second, third, and fourth grades. The data collected was analyzed using SPSS/WIN 20.0 version. Knowledge of breastfeeding was statistically significant for gender, grade, subject, breastfeeding experience, breastfeeding experience, desired information provider, and educational needs(p<.05). Nursing attitudes were statistically significant according to gender, grade, breastfeeding experience, breastfeeding experience, and educational needs(p<.05). There was a statistically significant correlation between knowledge and attitude of breastfeeding(r=.237, p<.001). On the basis of this, we need a systematic and diverse breast feeding program for nursing students.

The purpose of this study was to compare the breast feeding practice rates and mothers' breast feeding empowerment in preterm (gestation age [GA]<34), late preterm ($34{\leq}$GA<37), early term infants ($37{\leq}$GA<39). We surveyed 33 preterm, 22 late preterm, and 30 early term infants at a 'Baby-Friendly Hospital' in D city. The data were collected from October 1st, 2008 to February 28th, 2010 through the medical records of the infants and their mothers. We also checked the mothers' breast feeding empowerment at discharge day. The rate of breast feeding in the late preterm and preterm infants was significantly lower than that of the early term infants. The score of mothers' breast feeding empowerment in the late preterm and preterm infants was also significantly lower than that of the early term infants. The breast feeding education program is required for the mothers who have preterm and late preterm infants considering the low rate of breast feeding.
