Ethics Committee approval and the necessary permits are obtained for this research.

Number, percentage, mean, standard deviation, minimum and maximum values and  pearson correlation  were used to evaluate of data. </span> </i> </p> <p> <i> </i> </p> <i> </i> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"> <b> <i> <span lang="en-us" style="font-size:10pt;" xml:lang="en-us">Results: </span> </i> </b> <i> <span lang="en-us" style="font-size:10pt;" xml:lang="en-us"> The PSEQ point average was 173.3±35.8.

A significant positive relationship was found between total prenatal self evaluation and "helpless approach" and "submissive approach", two ineffective methods for coping with stress. While the use of “self-confident” and “optimistic” approaches result in better adaption to pregnancy, the use of ineffective methods decreases adaptation to pregnancy. </span> </i> <br /> </p>}, number={4}, publisher={Ataturk University}
