This study was planned as a randomized controlled experimental study to determine the effect of Mindfulness-Based Pregnancy Stress Reduction Program on stress levels, sleep quality and mindfulness levels of pregnant women. This study have been conducted between June 01, 2024 and December 31, 2024 in the obstetrics outpatient clinics of Vezirköprü State Hospital affiliated to Samsun Provincial Health Directorate.

The population of the study will consist of pregnant women who applied to the Obstetrics and Gynecology Outpatient Clinics of Vezirköprü District State Hospital affiliated to Samsun Provincial Health Directorate. Pregnant women who applied to Vezirköprü District State Hospital Obstetrics and Gynecology Outpatient Clinics and met the criteria for inclusion in the sample will be included in the sample of the study.
In order to determine a significant group effect in the sample calculation of the study, the minimum sample size was calculated as 33 pregnant women in the intervention group, 33 pregnant women in the control group, and 66 pregnant women in total, using an alpha margin of error of 0.05, a research power of 0.80 and an intermediate group effect (partial eta squared) of 0.03. In order to strengthen the results of the study and increase reliability and against the possibility of sample loss during the study, it was decided to include 80 pregnant women (40 intervention and 40 control), which is 20% more than the sample size.
