Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)

Transition to traditional complementary feeding

Transition to traditional complementary feeding: Five-month-old babies in the complementary feeding phase will be identified. Before starting the training, mothers will fill out an introductory information form for their babies. Anthropometric measurements of the babies will be taken by the researcher. Mothers will be administered an anxiety scale and a complementary feeding transition behavior scale. The Denver II screening test will be administered to the babies. Then, the mothers of these babies will be registered in the web-based training system. Training modules will be uploaded to the system according to months. Mothers will complete these training modules. At the end of the training, the anxiety scale will be administered to the mothers again. The Denver II screening test will be administered to the babies again at 9 months.

Study summary

This study will be conducted as a randomized controlled pre-test post-test study to determine the effects of technology-based complementary feeding training given to mothers during the transition period of babies to complementary feeding on babies' behavior and development and their mothers' anxiety levels.
