Aim: The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of laughter therapy, listening to music, and diary keeping interventions during pregnancy on the mother's mental health and the level of maternal attachment in the postpartum period.
Material and Methods: This is a quasi-experimental study. The study consisted of 50 pregnant women, 25 in intervention, and 25 in control groups. Interventions consisted of listening to music, laughter therapy and diary keeping for six weeks. Data were collected with the Beck Depression Inventory, Edinburgh Postpartum Depression Scale, Brief Symptom Inventory, and Maternal Attachment Scale.
Results: It was determined that the change in mental health of women in the intervention group over time was significant (p<0.05). The group-time interaction of the change in mental health level of pregnant women with depression symptoms in the intervention group was significant (p<0.05). There was a statistically significant difference between the mental health post-test scores of the experimental and control groups (p<0.05). Group scores were similar in maternal attachment (p˃0.05).
Conclusion: Laughter therapy, music listening, and diary keeping interventions applied to pregnant women made a difference in improving mental health in the postpartum period. Such procedures suggest an easy-to-use, non-invasive and cost-effective method.

Öz

Amaç: Gebelikte uygulanan kahkaha terapisi, müzik dinleme ve günlük tutma müdahalelerinin, postpartum dönemde annenin ruh sağlığına ve maternal bağlanma düzeyine etkisini değerlendirmektir.
Gereç ve Yöntemler: Bu yarı deneysel bir çalışmadır. Çalışmaya 25'i müdahale ve 25'i kontrol grubunda olmak üzere 50 gebe katıldı. Müdahaleler altı hafta boyunca kahkaha terapisi, müzik dinleme ve günlük tutmaktan oluşmaktadır. Veriler Beck Depresyon Envanteri, Edinburg Doğum Sonrası Depresyon Ölçeği, Kısa Semptom Envanteri ve Maternal Bağlanma Ölçeği ile toplandı.
Bulgular: Müdahale grubundaki kadınların ruh sağlıklarında zaman içinde meydana gelen değişimin anlamlı olduğu belirlendi (p<0,05). Müdahale grubundaki depresyon belirtileri olan gebelerin ruh sağlığı düzeyindeki değişimin grup-zaman etkileşimi anlamlıydı (p<0,05). Deney ve kontrol gruplarının ruh sağlığı son test puanları arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı fark vardı (p<0,05). Anneye bağlanmada grup puanları benzerdi (p˃0,05).
Sonuç: Gebelere uygulanan kahkaha terapisi, müzik dinleme ve günlük tutma müdahalelerinin doğum sonrası dönemde ruh sağlığının iyileştirilmesinde fark yarattığı görüldü. Bu tür müdahalelerin kullanımı kolay, invazif olmayan ve uygun maliyetli bir yöntem olarak önerilmektedir.
