AB  - This study has been attempted to identify the effects of educational program on pre and postpartum
self-care and parenting knowledge and efficacy in married immigrant women in South Korea. The data collection
period and pre and postpartum self-care and parenting educational program were between April 4 and
August 27, 2016. Twenty married immigrant women participated in 4 times parenting educational programs. Data
were analyzed using frequency analysis, paired t-test and Cronbach’s alpha coefficients with the SPSS 18.0 for
windows program. Following the programs there were significant increased in knowledge on pre and
postpartum self-care (t = -2.31, p = 0.033) and parenting knowledge (t = -277, p = 0.012) and parenting efficacy
t = -6.71, p<0.001). The correlation between the pre and postpartum self-care knowledge, parenting knowledge
and parenting efficacy in the subjects showed that there was a highly positive correlation between the pre and
postpartum self-care knowledge and parenting knowledge (r = 0.741, p<0.001), the pre and postpartum self-care
knowledge and parenting efficacy (r = 0.797, p<0.001) and the parenting knowledge and parenting efficacy
(r = 0.934, p<0.001). Various studies need to be performed to develop programs that can promote pre and
postpartum self-care and parenting knowledge and parenting efficacy for this population by reducing the
difficulties they face.
