Motivational Interview

Motivational interviewing is a collaborative speaking style to strengthen one's own motivation and commitment to change. Motivational interviewing is not a technique but a fundamental therapeutic style that does not try to make people change their behavior against their will. Proven to be effective in many areas of healthcare, motivational interviewing is widely used to help people resolve their indecision about change, explore their concerns, and set their own goals. The purpose of the motivational interviews conducted in the study is to increase the belief in normal and natural birth by enabling pregnant women to understand the factors that affect their low belief in normal birth, to take action for change and to believe in change, and to minimize the practices that cause medicalization of birth such as cesarean section by reducing medical birth beliefs.
