Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the effect of transtheoretical model-based antenatal and postnatal motivational interviewing on contraceptive self-efficacy, contraceptive attitude, and postpartum contraception use. This study was planned as a single-centre, parallel-group, randomized controlled trial design. The study group consisted of 72 women at 28-32 weeks of gestation (intervention group n=36, control group n=36). Block randomization stratified by parity will be used to assign participants to groups. The intervention group will receive antenatal and postnatal motivational interviewing in addition to routine care, while the control group will receive routine care only. Outcomes will be evaluated at 12 weeks postpartum. Data will be collected using a personal information form, Contraceptive Self-Efficacy Scale, Contraceptive Attitude Questionnaire, Contraceptive Use Form and Stages of Behavior Change Short Form.
