Cross-cultural adaptation and validation of the “AprendeLact” questionnaire to Portuguese
The "AprendeLact" questionnaire was cross-culturally adapted and validated into Portuguese for undergraduate nursing and postgraduate maternal and obstetric health students. Findings revealed limited breastfeeding knowledge among the students, particularly regarding practical aspects. Factors associated with higher levels of knowledge included being female, being in the final years of a bachelor's degree, participating in clinical placements related to breastfeeding, attending training activities, engaging in breastfeeding support groups, or having been breastfed as a child.
