Nutrition Knowledge	Baseline	Nutrition Knowledge Scale (NBS): The scale is a 5-point Likert scale with 31 questions. Scale items are scored between 0 and 4 (strongly agree 4 points, strongly disagree 0 points). The highest score that can be obtained from the scale, which is evaluated over the total score, is 126. The higher the score obtained from the scale, the higher the level of nutritional knowledge, and the lower the score, the lower the level of nutritional knowledge.

The score of positive items is 88 and the score of negative items is 96. The higher the score, the more positive the breastfeeding attitude is evaluated.
