Abstract

Dojenje je proces kojim dijete dobiva sve potrebno za zdrav rast i razvoj. Svjetska zdravstvena organizacija i UNICEF preporučuju isključivo dojenje prvih 6 mjeseci djetetovog života te nastavak dojenja uz dohranu do dvije godine ili dulje ako to majka i dijete žele. Ovo istraživanje imalo je za cilj ispitati stavove majki predškolske djece o trajanju dojenja. U istraživanju je sudjelovalo 129 majki predškolske djece koja pohađaju jednu predškolsku ustanovu u Zadarskoj županiji. Online anketom prikupljeni su podaci o sociodemografskim obilježjima ispitanica, podatci o dojenju te stavovi majki o dojenju za koje je korišten Upitnik ponašanja, stavova i znanja za roditelje (BBAKQ). Rezultati su pokazali da je većina ispitanica imala pozitivne stavove o dojenju. Majke su na ljestvici stavova BBAKQ ostvarile prosječnu srednju vrijednost bodova od 4,26. Četrdeset i tri posto ispitanica smatralo je da bi dijete trebalo dojiti od 12 do 24 mjeseca, a 11% je smatralo da bi trebalo dojiti dulje od 24 mjeseca. Četrdeset i sedam posto ispitanica dojilo je sadašnje dijete 12 i više mjeseci. Članovi obitelji podržavali su dojenje dulje od 12 mjeseci i to supruzi/partneri ispitanica u većem postotku nego majke i prijateljice ispitanica. Dob majke, broj djece, kao i to podržava li suprug/partner dojenje dulje od 12 mjeseci nisu bili statistički značajno povezani sa stavovima ispitanica o duljini dojenja.

Abstract (english)

Breastfeeding is the process by which the child gets everything it needs for healthy growth and development. The World Health Organization and UNICEF recommend exclusive breastfeeding for the first 6 months of a child's life, and continued breastfeeding with complementary feeding for up to two years or longer if the mother and child so desire. The aim of this research was to examine the attitudes of mothers of preschool children about the duration of breastfeeding. 129 mothers of preschool children attending one preschool in Zadar County participated in the research. An online survey collected data on the sociodemographic characteristics of the respondents, data on breastfeeding and mothers' attitudes about breastfeeding, for which the Behavior, Attitudes and Knowledge Questionnaire for Parents (BBAKQ) was used. The results showed that the majority of respondents had positive attitudes about breastfeeding. Mothers achieved an average score of 4.26 on the BBAKQ attitude scale. Forty-three percent of respondents believed that a child should be breastfed from 12 to 24 months, and 11% believed that it should be breastfed for longer than 24 months. Forty-seven percent of the respondents breastfed their current child for 12 months or more. Family members supported breastfeeding for longer than 12 months, and the wives/partners of the respondents in a higher percentage than the mothers and friends of the respondents. The age of the mother, the number of children, as well as whether the husband/partner supports breastfeeding for longer than 12 months were not statistically significantly related to the respondents' attitudes about the duration of breastfeeding.
