目的：一对夫妇的健康怀孕习惯，涉及酒精和物质使用的知识的影响进行了评估，在其他因素的背景下，以前确定的预测产前酒精消费的样本中的254名孕妇和他们的男性伴侣。方法：夫妇被要求独立评估一系列描述产前物质暴露后果的陈述（真或假），同时提供有关他们自己饮酒的信息。结果如下：尽管这些夫妇在怀孕期间表现出了良好的健康习惯知识，但当考虑到机会因素时，他们并不同意。家庭收入中位数对孕妇的知识得分的预测性高于其伴侣的得分。反过来，受试者的健康怀孕习惯的知识，表现在评估分数只有一个微弱的关系，产前饮酒。孕妇以前饮酒是产前饮酒的最强预测因素。结论：由于以前的酒精消费使用的孕妇是最强的预测产前酒精使用，其准确识别的重要性是强调。虽然有待进一步调查，但如果孕妇和她的伴侣分享有关健康怀孕行为的知识，可能会产生更大的影响。
Objective: The impact of a couple's knowledge about healthy pregnancy habits involving alcohol and substance use was assessed in the context of other factors previously identified to predict prenatal alcohol consumption in a sample of 254 pregnant women and their male partners. Method: Couples were asked to assess independently a series of statements (true or false) describing the consequences of prenatal substance exposure, while also providing information about their own drinking. Results: Although the couples demonstrated good knowledge of healthy habits during pregnancy, they did not agree when the element of chance was considered. Median household income was more highly predictive of a pregnant woman's knowledge score than her partner's score. In turn, the subject's knowledge of healthy pregnancy habits as manifested in the assessment score had only a weak relationship with prenatal alcohol consumption. Previous alcohol use by the pregnant woman was the strongest predictor of prenatal alcohol use. Conclusions: Because previous alcohol consumption use by the pregnant woman was the strongest predictor of prenatal alcohol use, the importance of its accurate identification is emphasized. Although pending further investigation, knowledge about healthy pregnancy behaviors may exert greater impact if it is shared by a pregnant woman and her partner.
