Tools like the Mother\u2010to\u2010Infant Bonding Scale (MIBS) enable objective assessment of this bond.

First, face and content validity were assessed by an expert panel of healthcare providers (\n                      <jats:italic>n\u2009=<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u200917) and mothers (\n                      <jats:italic>n\u2009=<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u20096). Second, convergent and concurrent validity were assessed based on cross\u2010sectional data collection. Internal consistency was evaluated using Cronbach's alpha. Exploratory factor analysis (EFA) was performed. Evidence based on relationships with demographic and clinical variables was examined to support the validity of the Dutch MIBS.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      Data were collected from 128 mothers who completed the MIBS and Postpartum Bonding Questionnaire (PBQ) on day 2 postpartum. Experts reached consensus on the face validity of the Dutch version of the MIBS in a Flemish context. Items showed adequate Item Content Validity Index (I\u2010CVI) (\u22650.79), except for the \u201cresentful\u201d and \u201caggressive\u201d items. The scale achieved a Scale Content Validity Index\/Average (SCVI\/Ave) of 0.89, although internal consistency was moderate (\n                      <jats:italic>\u03b1<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u20090.66). MIBS and PBQ scores correlated moderately (Kendall's Tau T\u2009=\u20090.27,\n                      <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009&lt;\u20090.001). Fisher's exact test showed a significant difference in the proportion of mothers classified with disrupted bonding depending on the tool (\n                      <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u20090.015). Combined feeding was associated with a higher rate of disrupted bonding (\n                      <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u20090.007).\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This study found that the Flemish MIBS tool had acceptable content validity, except for \u201cresentful\u201d and \u201caggressive.\u201d Reliability was moderate and convergent validity with PBQ was limited, with substantial discordant classification of disrupted bonding.
