Partisipan dalam penelitian ini adalah 135 ibu yang dipilih menggunakan teknik consecutive sampling. Pengambilan data menggunakan instrumen Maternal Attitude Scale (MAS), Maternal Efficacy Questionnaire (MEQ), Infant Characteristics Questionnaire (ICQ). Tidak ada hubungan maternal self-efficacy dengan sikap ibu terhadap perawatan bayi (p>0.05) dan tidak ada hubungan temperamen bayi dengan sikap ibu terhadap perawatan bayi (p>0.05).

Mother, the first person who takes care of infant, needs to have a positive attitude since it will affect her attitude on handling her infant. The purpose of this study was to identify the correlation between maternal self-efficacy and mother's attitude toward infant care as well as between infant?s temperament and mother's attitude toward infant care. Cross-sectional design was applied. The participants were 135 mothers, selected by consecutive sampling. Maternal Attitude Scale (MAS), Maternal Efficacy Questionnaire (MEQ), and Infant Characteristics Questionnaire (ICQ) instruments were used. There was no correlation between maternal selfefficacy and the mother?s attitude towards infant care (p>0.05), and there was also no correlation between the infant?s temperament and the mother's attitude towards infant care (p>0.05).
