J.M. Lagundi [and nine others]
This nursing research focused on the post-partum mothers and their newborn. Since the study is non-experimental, descriptive correlational study was used to determine the relationship between the identified factors such as civil status, gravidity and support system and the efectivity of rooming-in. To acquire data pertinent to this study, the researchers utilized the use of questionnaires. Only limited respondents from the Fabella Hospital were selected in accordance with the given criteria rather than a larger number of samples. Despite this, the limitations of the study are as follows: *time constraints alloted in conducting the study and due to the other academic requirements and obligations *fast turn-over rates of patients and their willingness to participate *uncontrollable variables such as stress and socio-cultural background *availability and adquate resources needed including the past studies related to rooming-in process In the data collection procedures, the researchers randomly distributed the questionnaires to selected mothers who were in the rooming-in process until the required number of samples were obtained Questionnaires and interviews were the tools utilized. Statistical treatment used were percentile ranking and the chi-square method.(Summary)
