Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Quality of Life Scale (SF36)	It was developed to measure the quality of life in people with physical diseases. It is measured in 8 dimensions and 36 items: physical function, physical role difficulty, emotional role difficulty, viability, mental health, social functionality, pain, and general health perception.	At the end of Color Therapy (therapy 9 times in total in 3 months)
Primary	Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI)	It consists of 21 questions and a minimum score of 0 and a maximum score of 3 is obtained from each question. As a result of the answers to all questions, all answers are summed up and a total score is obtained. In the evaluation phase, the presence and level of depression is interpreted in line with the meanings expressed by the score ranges. In the evaluation, 0-9 point range defines the presence of minimal depressive symptoms, 10-16 point range defines the presence of mild depressive symptoms, 17-29 point range defines the presence of moderate depressive symptoms and 30-63 point range defines the presence of severe depressive symptoms. A score of 17 and above indicates a level of depression that may require treatment.	At the end of Color Therapy (therapy 9 times in total in 3 months)
Primary	Parkinson's Fatigue Scale (PYO-16)	It consists of 16 items, with 5 responses for each item (1=strongly disagree, 5=strongly agree). The result evaluation can be done in two different ways. The total value is calculated as the average of the response to all items (value range 1-5). Scores above the average "3.3" are considered tired. In the other rating option, 0 (actual response 1-3) and 1 (actual response 4-5) are scored, with a total value between 0-16. A total of 8 points and above is considered tired. In both methods, a higher value indicates a higher level of fatigue.	At the end of Color Therapy (therapy 9 times in total in 3 months)
