| Résumé : | OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was three-fold: (a) to describe the knowledge of and attitudes on breastfeeding of men from diverse racial backgrounds, (b) to determine the relationship between knowledge and attitude toward breastfeeding, and (c) to determine the relationship between specified demographic variables and men's knowledge or attitudes on breastfeeding. DESIGN: Descriptive SETTING: An inner-city teaching hospital and its associated prenatal clinic located in the southern United States. PARTICIPANTS: One hundred men from diverse cultures who spoke either English or Spanish, were 18 years of age or older, and were present at either the hospital maternity units or associated prenatal clinic. RESULTS: Eighty-one percent (81%) of the men in this study indicated that they would prefer their infants to be breastfed. Ethnicity and age were found to be linked to attitudes and knowledge of breastfeeding. CONCLUSIONS: This study demonstrated that men had a strong desire that their infants be breastfed and wanted to be included in decisions concerning breastfeeding. |
