Abstract

The infant feeding decision is complex and involves the influence of
psychological, social, and economic factors, and health care system. This
study aimed to determine the contribution of knowledge on breastfeeding
among nonworking mothers. This was a cross-sectional study conducted in
Yogyakarta, Indonesia. A total of 173 nonworking mothers with babies
between 0-6 months who joined the mother support group (MSG) program
participated in this study. The results showed that knowledge has significant
influence on breastfeeding practice among the non working mothers (beta=
.21, p= .01). MSG may be a suitable method to promote breastfeeding among
Indonesian mothers.
