Aim: The aim of this study was to investigate mothers’ decision-making processes related to factors of child health care. Methodology: The participants of this study were selected through convenience sampling from mothers who lived in Erzurum. One hundred and eight mothers voluntarily participated in the study. Data were collected using the Health Self-Determinism Index(HSDI), Health Care Scenarios(HCS) and Demographic Profile. Results: In this study, the seriousness of the child’s condition, the mother’s previous experience, and the social support available to the mother were most common reasons impacting on the mother’s decision-making regarding their children’s health care. There were significant differences in decision-making factors between first-time mothers and mothers with more than one child, and support in decision-making was very important for the mothers in this study. Conclusions: This study shows how it would also be useful for health care providers to better identify mothers’ decision-making factors. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
