Background: Despite international efforts to protect and promote exclusive breastfeeding
(EBF) for infants up to six months of age, global rates of EBF continue to fall short of the targets
proposed by the WHO for 2025. Previous studies have shown a relationship between the level of
health literacy and the duration of EBF, although this relationship was not determinant, probably
due to the use of a generic health literacy questionnaire. Therefore, this study aims to design and
validate the first specific breastfeeding literacy instrument. Methods: A Breastfeeding Literacy instru ment was developed. Content validation was carried out by a group of 10 experts in health literacy,
breastfeeding or instrument validation, obtaining a Content Validity index in Scale (S-CVI/Ave) of
0.912. A multicentre cross-sectional study was carried out in three Spanish hospitals to determine
the psychometric properties (construct validity and internal consistency). The questionnaire was
administered to 204 women during the clinical puerperium. Results: The Kaiser-Meier-Oklin Test
(KMO = 0.924) and Bartlett’s Test of Sphericity (X
2 = 3119.861; p ≤ 0.001) confirmed the feasibility of
the Exploratory Factor Analysis, which explained 60.54% of the variance with four factors. Conclu sions: The Breastfeeding Literacy Assessment Instrument (BLAI) consisting of 26 items was validated. [-]
