dc.description.abstractAim: This study aimed to determine the effect of goldfish intervention on anxiety, fear, psychological and emo-tional well-being of hospitalized children.Materials and methods: Between November 2020 and August 2021, an open-label, single-center randomized con-trolled experimental study was conducted in Turkiye's Eastern Anatolia region. The study included 112 children aged 8 to 10 years old (56 in the study group and 56 in the control group). The study and control groups were randomly assigned to strata using a table of random numbers. The children in the study group observed after goldfish intervention for three days. As data collection tools, the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory for Children, Child Fear Scale, and the Stirling Children's Well-being Scale were used.Results: The mean state anxiety scores of the children in the study group who looked after goldfish intervention decreased significantly compared to the control group. When the two groups were compared, the difference be-tween the post-test measurements were significant (p < 0.05). The mean score of the fear scale in the post-test measurements of the study group children was significantly lower than the control group (p < 0.05). Finally, the emotional, and psychological well-being post-test scale mean scores of the study group children were higher than the control group (p < 0.01).Conclusion: Goldfish intervention was found to be effective in decreasing the state anxiety and fear levels and in-creasing the psychological and emotional well-being levels of the children in the study group.(c) 2022 Elsevier Inc.
