Weighing Preterm Infants Before & After Breastfeeding
Bibliographic record
Abstract
PURPOSE: To determine whether weighing preterm infants before and after breastfeeding ("test weighing") affects maternal confidence and competence. METHODS: A longitudinal, repeated measures control group study. Sixty mothers of preterm infants were randomly assigned to a test weight or nontest weight group. In the test weight group, nurses weighed infants before and after every breastfeeding while they were in hospital. Maternal confidence and competence were measured four times: (a) at 3 days after the initiation of breastfeeding, (b) at infants' discharge from hospital, (c) at 1 week postdischarge, (d) at 4 weeks postdischarge. RESULTS: No significant differences in maternal confidence and competence at any of the measurement times were found. When change over time was examined using MANOVAs, the levels of competence and confidence in both groups had increased significantly. CLINICAL IMPLICATIONS: The development of maternal confidence and competence in this group was independent of test weighing during hospitalization and calls into question claims that such interventions are necessary to develop competence or confidence in mothers of preterm infants.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
