Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
Wijma Delivery Expectation/Experience Scale (W-DEQ)
The "Wijma Delivery Expectation/Experience Scale (W-DEQ)" was developed by Klaas and Barbro Wijma, using the clinical experiences of women regarding the fear of childbirth. The W-DEQ scale version A was developed to measure the experiences of pregnant women before childbirth. Responses are on a six-point Likert-type scale from 0 to 5. 0 means "totally" and 5 as "not at all". While the minimum score on this scale is 0, the maximum score is 165. Higher scores indicate that women have a higher fear of childbirth.
Baseline
The Pregnancy Physical Activity Questionnaire
The pregnancy physical activity questionnaire was developed by Lisa Chasan-Taber et al. in 2004 to determine the physical activity levels of pregnant women only. This questionnaire determines the activity level of pregnant women based on the time they spend during 32 activities.
