IRCT20251106067894N1 IRCT 2025-11-25 Yazd University of Medical Sciences Investigating the effect of training based on Bandura's self efficacy theory on the sense of parental competence of mothers with premature infants hospitalized in the neonatal intensive care unit Neonatal Intensive Care Unit(NICU) Investigating the effect of training based on Bandura's self efficacy theory on the sense of parental competence of mothers with premature infants hospitalized in the neonatal intensive care unit 2025-12-22 anticipated 72 Complete https://irct.ir/trial/87625 interventional Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Single blinded, Placebo: Not used, Assignment: Single, Purpose: Supportive, Randomization description: Considering the conditions of admission and obtaining informed consent from mothers whose infants are hospitalized in the neonatal intensive care unit, the researcher divides 72 mothers (36 in the intervention group and 36 in the control group) into test and control groups according to the entry and exit criteria by random allocation using random allocation software. First, the test group is sampled and then the control group is sampled. To prevent the transfer of information between the two groups, a time block is used; in this way, after sampling the test group and performing the intervention, we wait until the test group is discharged, then we perform the control group sampling, Blinding description: Due to the nature of the educational intervention, complete blinding of participants is not possible. Participants are practically not blinded because they receive the educational intervention and know the difference. The researcher cannot be blinded because he or she provides the education. The clinical caregiver cannot be blinded because he or she is usually involved in routine infant care and, although he or she does not play a role in providing the education, is usually relatively aware of the mothers’ condition. However, blinding of the outcome assessor and data analyst will be done. Mothers in the intervention and control groups will not be aware of the main hypothesis of the study and the allocation method. The person responsible for the statistical analysis will receive the data coded and labeled as Group A and Group B and will not be aware of the group allocation. The outcome assessor will also not be involved in the implementation of the intervention and will be unaware of the order of allocation. The person generating the randomization sequence will not be involved in the recruitment, data collection, or analysis. This method reduces performance and assessment bias as much as possible. N/A Mothers' sense of parental competence. Intervention group: Intervention group: In addition to routine care in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit(NICU), the intervention group will be provided with a training program based on the four parts of Bandura's self efficacy theory in four consecutive sessions (maximum two hours each session). The sessions will be held individually or in groups in the NICU training room and will include four parts: functional experience (familiarization with the unit, infant behavior, and cuddling), substitution experience (showing pictures, modeling, and role-playing), verbal encouragement (feedback and encouragement while performing skills), and attention to emotional state (anxiety management and response to concerns).. Undecided - It is not yet known if there will be a plan to make this available Justification or reason for indecision in sharing IPD is No more information available.
