Primary | Child Introduction Form | The introductory information form was prepared by the researcher in line with the literature information. The introductory information form consists of 10 questions covering the characteristics of children and their families (age, gender, parental age, education level, family type, income status), and operational characteristics (patient's complaints, type of surgery, previous operation experience). | (First measurement-After the operation, when the patient is taken to her bed and fully awakened) | |
Primary | Children's Fear Scale | The mean score of the scale, which was translated into Turkish by five independent linguists, was 1.9 ± 0.1 (min=0, max=4). The scale can also be scored by the parent and the researcher. The scale consists of five drawn facial expressions ranging from a neutral expression (0=no anxiety) to a frightened face (4=severe anxiety). | (First measurement-40 minutes on average before mobilization) | |

The scale consists of five drawn facial expressions ranging from a neutral expression (0=no anxiety) to a frightened face (4=severe anxiety). | (Second measurement-1 minute on average before mobilization) | |
Primary | Visual Analogue Scale | The scale consists of a horizontal or vertical ruler, 10 cm or 100 mm in length, showing "painlessness" at one end and "the most severe pain" at the other end. For children over the age of six, this scale is reported to be an easy-to-understand and easy-to-apply scale. | (First measurement-40 minutes on average before mobilization) | |

Primary | The Wong-Baker Faces Pain Rating Scale | In this scale, there are six facial expressions representing the increasing pain intensity from 0 to 5 from left to right. Six facial expressions are scored between 0-5 points from left to right (0 points = very happy/no pain, 5 points = indicates the most severe pain). As the score obtained from the scale increases, pain tolerance decreases, and as the score decreases, the tolerance increases. | (First measurement-40 minutes on average before mobilization) | |
