Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort

Group / Cohort

Ballet Groups

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
The World Health Organisation's Five Well-Being Index
Time Frame: 5 minutes. Each participant who meets the inclusion criteria was asked to fill out the form only once in beginning of the study.
The World Health Organisation's Five Well-Being Index (WHO-5), which is developed by Bench et al., is a valid instrument for the psychometric evaluation of emotional well-being, and quality of life for the previous two weeks (Bech et al., 1996). This measure consists of 5-items, which respondents rated on a scale of "0- never" to "5- all the time". The WHO-5 low score "0" representing the worst possible well-being and "100" the best. The score of lower than 13 could be regarded as indicates poor quality of life.
5 minutes. Each participant who meets the inclusion criteria was asked to fill out the form only once in beginning of the study.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
The Distress Tolerance Scale
Time Frame: 7 minutes.Each participant who meets the inclusion criteria was asked to fill out the form only once in beginning of the study.
The Distress Tolerance Scale (DTS) is a 15- item, self-report used to assess psychological distress, which is developed by Simons and Gaher (Simons and Gaher, 2005).DTS was used as a function of the time period during which these data were collected. While the original scale has 4 factors Turkish version has 3 factors across Tolerance, Regulation, Self-Efficacy. 5-point Likert-type scale score changes between 1 strongly agree and 5 strongly disagree. The higher scores indicating higher psychological distress tolerance.
7 minutes.Each participant who meets the inclusion criteria was asked to fill out the form only once in beginning of the study.
The Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale
Time Frame: 10 minutes. Each participant who meets the inclusion criteria was asked to fill out the form only once in beginning of the study.
The Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS), which is developed by Zigmond et. all is a self-assessment tool for to use of detecting depression and anxiety (Zigmond and Snaith, 1983). HADS investigates how people have felt in the past week. It has included 14- items, which rated on a four-point scale and scored from 0-3, and two subscales, as anxiety (7 items) and depression (7 items), each part scores ranged from 0 to 21. Scores between 0 and 7 indicate normal emotional stated, and higher than 7 on the subscales of the HADS indicated anxiety and depressive disorder.
10 minutes. Each participant who meets the inclusion criteria was asked to fill out the form only once in beginning of the study.
