The research population will consist of parents or prospective parents. Literature indicates that in methodological research, the sample size required to test the validity and reliability of measurement instruments should be 10-15 times the number of items in the scale (Esin, 2024). Accordingly, in this research, the minimum required sample size was planned as 12 times the number of items in the measurement instrument (17 x 12 = 204), based on this rule.
