简要总结
The research will be conducted in a pre-test-post-test control group randomized control design. The aim is to examine the effect of mandala work on anxiety and mental fatigue in pregnant women diagnosed with threatened preterm labor. Hypotheses
- Mandala coloring work reduces the level of anxiety related to pregnancy in pregnant women diagnosed with threatened preterm labor.
- Mandala coloring work reduces the level of anxiety in pregnant women diagnosed with threatened preterm labor.
- Mandala coloring work reduces the level of mental fatigue in pregnant women diagnosed with threatened preterm labor.
Pregnant women who meet the inclusion criteria will be given general information about the research before randomization, their consent will be obtained and pre-test data will be collected. Pregnant women whose pre-test data are collected will be assigned to the intervention and control groups using the simple randomization method.
Intervention group: Participants in the intervention group will be given a set of colored markers and a mandala coloring page and will be asked to color them at any time of the day and in any way they want during their hospitalization. Participants will be asked to take a picture of the mandala they colored and send it to the researcher after they are finished. Participants will be reminded daily so that they do not forget to do the activity. Research data will be collected a total of four times before randomization, on the 1st day, 2nd day and 3rd day after the mandala application was started.
Control Group: No intervention other than routine care will be made to the control group of the study, and research data will be collected at simultaneous time intervals with the experimental group.

Pregnancy-Related Anxiety Scale
时间窗: 0-3 day
It was developed by Brunton et al. (2019), which can be applied to primiparous and multiparous pregnant women, and adapted into Turkish by Şolt and Kanza Gül (2020). The scale is a 4-point Likert-type scale with 9 sub-dimensions: "Birth-Related Anxiety" (items 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6), "Body Image Anxiety" (items 7, 8, 9, 10, and 11), "Attitudes Towards Birth" (items 12, 13, 14), "Concerns About Motherhood" (items 15, 16, 17), "Acceptance of Pregnancy" (items 18, 19, 20), "Anxiety Indicators" (items 21, 22, 23, and 24), "Attitudes Towards Healthcare Personnel" (items 25, 26, and 27), "Avoidance" (items 28, 29, and 30) and "Attitudes Towards the Baby" (items 29, 30, and 40). It consists of a total of 33 items, including "Anxiety" (items 31, 32 and 33). The lowest score is 33 and the highest is 132, and there is no cut-off point. As the scores obtained from the scale increase, anxiety related to pregnancy increases. The Cronbach Alpha coefficient of the scale was stated as 0.82 for multipa
