Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: The Population, Concept, and Context (PCC) framework by the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) methodology will be used for establishing the eligibility criteria. The inclusion criteria will be as follows: P: Women and their partners in the perinatal and postpartum periods. C: Sources of health information related to the perinatal and postpartum periods and topics that the population acquired during these periods, focusing on their physical and mental health, routes and timing of information acquisition. As the routes and timing of acquisition of health information have not yet been investigated in relation to the sources of evidence, these items will be included in this scoping review. C: Open (ie, not limited by country or culture). This scoping review will consider a broad range of sources of evidence that address our research questions. This includes primary research articles (eg, observational studies including descriptive cross-sectional studies, prospective longitudinal studies, retrospective longitudinal studies and qualitative studies/reviews) and other relevant grey literature (eg, reports by the government, institutions, non-profit organisations, professional associations and patient groups). We will include sources of evidence that were investigated after 2020.If reviews are included, the articles cited in these reviews will be excluded.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: Health information regarding breastfeeding, foetus and baby; sources of evidence that are written in languages other than English or Japanese; and conference abstracts and protocols.
