چکیده

مقدمه: ناباروری، یکی از چالش‌های مهم سلامت جهانی است که ابعاد جسمی، روانی و اجتماعی گسترده‌ای دارد. در ایران، فشارهای فرهنگی و اجتماعی بر زنان نابارور، پیچیدگی این موضوع را افزایش می‌دهد. روش لقاح آزمایشگاهی، یکی از موفق‌ترین راهکارهای درمان ناباروری است، اما پذیرش آن تحت تأثیر عوامل مختلفی قرار دارد. مطالعه حاضر با هدف بررسی عوامل مؤثر بر تمایل زنان نابارور به انجام لقاح آزمایشگاهی با استفاده از مدل اعتقادی بهداشتی انجام شد.
روشکار: این پژوهش توصیفی- تحلیلی به روش پیمایشی در سال 1404-1403 بر روی ۲۰۶ زن نابارور مراجعه‌کننده به مراکز درمان ناباروری قم انجام شد. گردآوری داده‌های مربوط به گرایش زنان نابارور به استفاده از روش لقاح آزمایشگاهی با پرسشنامه‌ای محقق‌ساخته مبتنی بر مدل اعتقادی بهداشتی صورت گرفت. تجزیه و تحلیل داده‌ها با استفاده از رگرسیون خطی چندگانه انجام شد.
یافته ­ها: بر اساس نتایج، خودکارآمدی و مزایای درک ‌شده، تأثیر مثبت و معناداری بر تمایل به انجام لقاح آزمایشگاهی داشتند، در حالی که موانع درک‌ شده، اثر منفی و معناداری داشتند. حساسیت و شدت درک ‌شده، تأثیر معناداری نشان ندادند. تقویت خودکارآمدی، افزایش آگاهی از مزایای لقاح آزمایشگاهی و کاهش موانع اقتصادی و اجتماعی از طریق مداخلات آموزشی و حمایتی می‌تواند پذیرش این روش درمانی را بهبود بخشد.
نتیجه ­گیری: یافته‌های پژوهش نشان داد که تقویت خودکارآمدی، افزایش آگاهی از مزایای درمان و کاهش موانع ادراک ‌شده می‌تواند مؤثرترین راهکار برای ارتقای پذیرش لقاح آزمایشگاهی باشد.

چکیده [English]

Introduction: Infertility is one of the major global health challenges with extensive physical, psychological, and social dimensions. In Iran, cultural and social pressures on infertile women further increase the complexity of this issue. In vitro fertilization (IVF) is one of the most successful methods for infertility treatment; however, its acceptance is influenced by various factors. The present study was conducted with aim to examine the factors affecting infertile women’s willingness to undergo IVF using the Health Belief Model.
Methods: This descriptive–analytical survey study was conducted in 2024–2025 among 206 infertile women attending infertility treatment centers in Qom. Data on infertile women’s inclination to use IVF were collected using a researcher‑made questionnaire based on the Health Belief Model. Data were analyzed using multiple linear regressions.
Results: The results showed that self‑efficacy and perceived benefits had a positive and significant effect on the willingness to undergo IVF, while perceived barriers had a negative and significant effect. Perceived susceptibility and perceived severity showed no significant effect. Strengthening self‑efficacy, increasing awareness of the benefits of IVF, and reducing economic and social barriers through educational and supportive interventions may improve acceptance of this treatment method.
Conclusion: The findings indicated that strengthening self‑efficacy, increasing awareness of treatment benefits, and reducing perceived barriers can be the most effective strategies for improving acceptance of IVF.
