Summary

This study tested whether a solution-focused training program could reduce traumatic birth perception and increase self-efficacy for vaginal birth in first-time mothers. Forty pregnant women in their third trimester received 6-8 sessions of training, while a control group received only routine care. Researchers measured changes in fear and confidence using standard questionnaires.
