Abstract
The aim of the study was to determine whether the attitude towards breastfeeding among Chinese postpartum women who have immigrated to Spain differs from that of Spanish-born postpartum women.
Cross-sectional study, with between-group comparison, of 73 postpartum women admitted to the maternity units of the 12 de Octubre Hospital. Attitudes toward breastfeeding were analyzed using the Spanish of Chinese version of the Iowa Infant Feeding Attitude Scale (IIFAS).
Chinese immigrant women obtained scores of approximately 9 points less when compared to Spanish-born women, after adjusting for different socioeconomic, educational and work-related factors.
