Quoting Polona Skocir <[log in to unmask]>:
Dear midwives,
I'm Ana Polona Skočir, a midwife from Slovenia. I'm an assistent at the
College of health studies in Ljubljana; midwifery department. As a part of my
MSc thesis at the University of Aberdeen, I'm doing a reserach about postnatal
depression. I included the following table by Emons and Luiten in my study.
However, my mentor warned me that not all the data in the table are correct.
As I need to submit my work next week, I would like to ask you to help me.
Would you be so kind and please send me the correct data for your country?
Thank you in advance and best wishes from Slovenia,
Polona Skočir
