Abstract

The beliefs and attitudes toward sexuality during pregnancy, as well as anatomical, physiological, and spiritual changes that women experience, affect sexual life in this period. This study aims to develop a measurement tool to determine the attitudes of women with pregnancy and men whose partners were pregnant toward sexuality during pregnancy. As a result of the psychometric analysis, a 34-item, 3-factor scale of attitudes toward sexuality during pregnancy was obtained. The Attitude Scale toward Sexuality during Pregnancy was found as a valid and reliable tool in Turkish women with pregnant and their partners. The scale is brief, easy to understand, administer and score, and demonstrates high internal consistency. Another importance of this scale is that it can be used for men. It may prove useful for researchers and clinicians interested in sexuality.

摘要

怀孕期间对性的信念和态度，以及女性经历的解剖、生理和精神变化，都会影响这一时期的性生活。本研究旨在开发一种测量工具，以确定怀孕女性和其伴侣怀孕的男性对怀孕期间性行为的态度。作为心理测量分析的结果，获得了一个包含 34 个项目、3 个因素的怀孕期间对性行为的态度量表。在怀孕期间对性行为的态度量表被发现是一种有效且可靠的工具，适用于怀孕的土耳其妇女及其伴侣。该量表简短、易于理解、管理和评分，并表现出高度的内部一致性。这个量表的另一个重要性是它可以用于男性。
