Introduction: Postpartum blues affect 50-80% of new mothers globally and can impact maternal-infant bonding if unaddressed. This study investigated the effectiveness of Family-Centered Maternity Care (FCMC) in enhancing maternal self-efficacy and reducing postpartum blues among postpartum mothers in Indonesian community health centers. Methods: A quasi-experimental study with pre-test and post-test control group design involved 60 postpartum mothers (30 intervention, 30 control) selected through purposive sampling. The intervention group received a four-week FCMC program including family support counseling, postpartum education, and family engagement activities. The control group received standard care. Maternal self-efficacy was measured using the Maternal Self-Efficacy Questionnaire (MEQ) and postpartum blues using the Postpartum Blues Questionnaire (PBQ). Data were analyzed using independent and paired t-tests. Results: FCMC significantly improved maternal self-efficacy in the intervention group (7.4-point increase, p < 0.001, Cohen's d = 2.37) compared to the control group (1.6 points, p = 0.136). Postpartum blues symptoms significantly decreased in the intervention group (6.7-point reduction, p < 0.001, Cohen's d = 1.87) versus the control group (0.9-point reduction, p = 0.522). Post-intervention, 63.3% of intervention mothers achieved high self-efficacy versus 16.7% in controls, while severe postpartum blues were eliminated in the intervention group.Conclusion Family-Centered Maternity Care effectively increases maternal self-efficacy and reduces postpartum blues in primary healthcare settings. The findings support integrating FCMC into standard maternal and child health services with emphasis on family involvement and comprehensive education programs.

Hertuida Clara, Hafizah Che Hassan, Nisha Nambiar — Sun, 14 Sep 2025 00:00:00 -0400

Introduction: Self-efficacy is a key factor influencing diabetes self-management, with higher self-efficacy linked to better adherence to self-care and reduced complications. The Diabetic Management Self-Efficacy Scale (DMSES), a 15-item Likert questionnaire, assesses self-efficacy in diet, exercise, blood glucose monitoring, therapy, and foot care. This study aimed to evaluate the validity and reliability of the Indonesian version of DMSES for use among patients with diabetes mellitus.

Methods: This cross-sectional study recruited 30 adults with diabetes mellitus, with 26 participants completing the questionnaire. The study was conducted in three stages: (1) translation, (2) content validation, and (3) validity and reliability testing. Forward–backward translation was applied to ensure linguistic and cultural accuracy. Content validity was assessed by a panel of five experts who rated item relevance, and the content validity index (CVI) was calculated. Item validity was examined by correlating individual item scores with total scores, while internal consistency reliability was evaluated using Cronbach’s alpha.

Results: During translation, four items were modified to improve cultural and language clarity. The content validity assessment yielded a CVI of 1.00, indicating excellent agreement among experts. Item analysis demonstrated moderate to strong correlations (r = 0.550–0.867), with all correlation values exceeding the critical r table value (0.388), confirming item validity. The internal consistency reliability test produced a Cronbach’s alpha of 0.934, signifying excellent reliability across all items.

Conclusion: The Indonesian version of the DMSES demonstrates strong content validity and high reliability, making it a valid and reliable instrument for measuring self-efficacy in patients with diabetes mellitus. These findings support the use of DMSES in future research and clinical practice in Indonesia to assess and strengthen diabetes self-management behaviors.
