ABSTRACT
Objective: To determine the relationship between parenting stress, resilience, and self-efficacy of first aid for home accidents in mothers with 0-4-year-old children.
Materials and Methods: The study population comprised mothers in Turkey with children between 0 and 4 years old. The effect size was calculated based on existing literature, resulting in a value of 0.31 for Cohen's d. The G*Power 3.1.9.7 program was used to estimate the sample size, which was determined to be 66 individuals. A 20% increase was added to allow for people dropping out, making a final sample size of 80. The data were collected between March and June 2024 using the Information Form, Parenting Stress Scale (PSS), The Brief Resilience Scale (BRS), and the Self-Efficacy of First Aid Scale for Home Accidents (SEFASHA). The data were analysed using the SPSS 22.0 program, employing descriptive statistics and parametric or non-parametric tests for comparative data.
Findings: The study found that the average PSS score was influenced by factors such as age, place of residence, health status, education level, and history of accidents or injuries during the mother's childhood at home (p<0.05). Educational status and education life as a source of information about home accidents-first aid also affected the average SEFASHA score (p<0.05). The correlation between the average PSS and SEFASHA scores was positive and significant (r=0.030, p<0.05).
Conclusion: The study's findings determined that different variables affected mothers' PSS and SEFASHA mean scores and that there was a relationship between PSS and SEFASHA. In this context, the findings obtained on the subject are of great importance for the field of study and also emphasize the need for further research.
