Description

Ezgi Şahin and Cennet Çiriş Yildiz survey first time pregnant women on spiritual well-being, felt social support, and fear of death. Published in 2026, the cross-sectional study enrolled 390 women at an antenatal clinic in northern Türkiye. Standard scales measured all three traits, and the analysis tested whether support sits between well-being and anxiety.

Spiritual well-being rose with felt support and fell as death anxiety rose; support itself also tracked lower anxiety. Both links survived adjustment for background factors. A statistical path through support was significant, though the authors caution that a one time survey cannot prove a causal chain. They suggest antenatal care should tend to women's spiritual and social resources.
