Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Pregnancy-Related Anxiety Questionnaire-Revised-2 (PRAQ-R2)

    This scale consisting of 10 items is a 5-point Likert-type scale to question women's pregnancy-related anxiety levels. The scale items are scored between 1 and 5 (1-Absolutely not relevant and 5-Very relevant). The lowest and highest scores are 11 and 55 for primiparous women, and 10 and 50 for multiparous women, respectively. A higher scale score indicates a higher level of anxiety in pregnancy.

    Baseline

  • Tilburg Pregnancy Distress Scale (TPDS)

    This scale consisting of 16 items is a 4-point Likert-type scale. The scale items are scored between 0 and 3 (very often 0 points, quite often 1 point, occasionally 2 points, rarely/never 3 points). A total score of 28 and above according to the cut-off point indicates that the pregnant woman is at risk for distress.

    Baseline

  • Psychological well-being scale

    This scale consisting of 8 items is a 7-point Likert-type scale. The scale items are scored between 1 and 7 (1-Absolutely not relevant and 7-Very relevant). The lowest and highest scores are 8 and 56 respectively. A high score indicates that the person has many psychological resources and strengths.
