Control group was assigned to the ongoing activities in the center. After two months follow up measures were administered to assess maintenance of the behavior change.
Results: The result of analysis with multivariate analysis and repeated measure indicated that there was a significant difference between means of experimental and control groups with respect to stress in mothers.
