The Indonesian versions of the Postpartum Blues Questionnaire (PBQ-32) and Maternal Self-Efficacy Questionnaire (MSEQ-20) exhibit good psychometric properties and cultural relevance.
Both instruments demonstrated strong internal consistency and high test-retest reliability, with PBQ-32 showing α = 0.89 and MSEQ-20 showing α = 0.87.
Exploratory factor analysis revealed a six-factor structure for PBQ-32 explaining 68.4% of variance, and a four-factor structure for MSEQ-20 accounting for 61.7% of variance.
Significant negative correlation (r = -0.72, p < 0.001) between postpartum blues and maternal self-efficacy indicates these tools may aid in identifying postpartum psychological challenges.
