Based on the Chi-square test, the value obtained was ρ - 0.00 < α - 0.05, so H0 rejected, indicating that there was a relationship between breastfeeding self-efficacy and breastfeeding. Another value obtained was ρ - 0.00 < α - 0.05 so H0 rejected, which also means that there was a relationship between social support and breastfeeding.
