dc.description.abstractObjective: In the present study, the effects of prayer frequency and knowledge of prayer on breastfeeding self-efficacy were examined for the first time while controlling for variables such as psychological resilience and method of delivery.Method: For this purpose, a sample of 232 women was analyzed by using multiple linear regression analysis.Results: The results indicate that regular prayer has a higher level of positive impact on breastfeeding self-efficacy, that it is a stronger predictor in comparison with psychological resilience, and that this effect is pronounced among Muslim mothers.Conclusion: These insights could inform interventions aimed at improving breastfeeding practices by incorporating spiritual dimensions alongside psychological support.
