了解母亲关于长期母乳喂养的决定的决定因素对于促进产后 12 个月及以后的母乳喂养非常重要。在这项纵向婴儿喂养研究中，计划行为理论被用来解释 80 名母乳喂养 9 个月大婴儿的参与者的预期和实际母乳喂养持续时间。母乳喂养时间越长，参与者对母乳喂养的认可度就越低。感知认可并未解释产前的预期持续时间，但强烈解释了产后 9 个月的预期持续时间。然而，对照组母亲认为自己过度母乳喂养的数量解释了产前和 9 个月母乳喂养持续时间的意图。 9 至 12 个月之间断奶的原因反映了感知控制的影响，而不是感知认可的影响。这些结果表明需要（1）采取干预措施来提高长期母乳喂养的社会接受度，以及（2）为长期母乳喂养者提供持续的母乳喂养指导和支持。 J Hum Lact。 20（3）：306-318。
Understanding determinants of mothers’ decisions regarding long-term breastfeeding is important for the promotion of breastfeeding for up to 12 months postpartum and beyond. In this longitudinal infant feeding study, the theory of planned behavior was used to explain the intended and actual breastfeeding duration of 80 participants who were breastfeeding 9-monthold infants. Participants perceived less approval for breastfeeding the longer they breastfed. Perceived approval did not explain prenatal intended duration but strongly explained intended duration at 9 months postpartum. The amount of control mothers perceived they had over breastfeeding, however, explained both prenatal and 9-month breastfeeding duration intentions. Reasons for weaning between 9 and 12 months reflected the effects of perceived control but not of perceived approval. These results suggest the need for (1) interventions to increase the social acceptability of long-term breastfeeding and (2) ongoing breastfeeding guidance and support for long-term breastfeeders.
