Predictive capacity for breastfeeding and determination of the best cut-off point for the breastfeeding self-efficacy scale-short form.

Introduction: The most widely used tool for assessing breastfeeding self-efficacy is the Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy Scale-Short Form (BSES-SF). This study assesses the relationship between the BSES-SF score and the risk of breastfeeding (BF) cessation and determines the cut-off point in the scale score that optimizes detection of this risk in primary health care pediatric consultations.

Methods: Secondary data analysis of the LAyDI study.
