Perceived social support and depression levels of women in the postpartum period in Hatay, Turkey
Open accessAbstract
OBJECTIVES: Postpartum depression is one of the major problems affecting the mother and baby's health. Inadequate social support system may affect the occurrence of this problem. This study was performed to determine the depression and social support in women at the postpartum period. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This study was designed as a cross-sectional study. The research was conducted in Narlıca No. 2 family health center located in the city center of Hatay with 177 women who have given birth at least 2-4 months before and agreed to participate in the study. Edinburgh Postpartum Depression Scale (EPDS), Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support (MSPSS), and Sociodemographic Information Form was utilized for data collection. RESULTS: It was determined that women's scores of EPDS and MSPSS were affected by the variables of intended pregnancy and obtained support for infant care (P < 0.05). A significant negative correlation (P < 0.01) was found between MSPSS and EPDS scales. CONCLUSION: This study concludes that as social support levels increase there is a decrease at postpartum depression risk. It is recommended that planning of interventions should be in accordance with the factors affecting the social support and depression levels at women in the postpartum period.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
