The scale is a visual analog measurement tool. The scale consists of 9 items and 2 factors. There is a 0-100 mm linear line immediately below each item in the scale, indicating "no risk" and "extremely high risk".

• Self-Efficacy Scale in Gestational Diabetes (GESGD):

  Developed by Polat and Avdal (2020), the Self-Efficacy Scale in Gestational Diabetes is a five-point Likert-type scale consisting of 23 items and four sub-dimensions. The total Cronbach alpha value of the scale was determined as 0.654. Its sub-dimensions are Diet and Weight Management, Complication Precautions, Nutrition Education Compliance and Medical Treatment Applications. It has been emphasized that as the score to be obtained from the scale increases as a result of the coding of the positive and negative expressions in the scale, the individual's self-efficacy will increase and that he/she will be able to effectively perform his/her own care as a result of the training he/she receives.
