Abstract

As attention in health care turns to prevention and health promotion, identification of populations at risk for avoiding care becomes increasingly important. The Infant Care Survey (ICS) is a scale to assess self-efficacy expectations for infant care tasks.Reliability and validity estimates for the ICS are supportive. Descriptions of content, factorial, and construct validation are given. Finally, ongoing research is described, and suggestions for use of the ICS are offered.
