Aim: This study was conducted to determine the effect of the interactive training about family planning given to married women on family planning attitudes.
Material and Method: The study was quasi-experimental; the sample consisted of 60 women who met the sampling criteria. The Family Planning Attitude Scale was applied to the married women who agreed to participate in the study, with a questionnaire created by the researcher. After the pretest was applied to the women, educational material was created, interactive training was given, and posttest was applied. The IBM Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) program version package program was used to evaluate the data of the study.
Results: The scores of the women before the training are 47.40±11.98 as the sub-dimension regarding society, 40.57±8.80 as the sub-dimension regarding the method, 27.30±6.93 as the sub-dimension regarding pregnancy, and 115.27±24.46 as sub-dimension regarding total family planning attitude scale. The scores of the women in the posttest applied after the training; sub-dimension for society was 47.88±9.40, the sub-dimension 48.75±5.71 for method, 31.08±5.38 for pregnancy, and the total score for the family planning attitude scale was 127.72±17.07. The difference between the pretest and posttest mean scores of the women’s total family planning attitude scale, contraceptive methods, and subscales related to pregnancy is statistically significant (p<0.05).
Conclusion: It was determined that the difference between the attitude towards pregnancy subscale according to the contraceptive use status of the women was significant. Women who use family planning methods have a higher attitude towards pregnancy. Women are thought to develop a positive attitude towards contraceptive use as their knowledge about contraceptive methods increases.
