Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change in Geriatric Anxiety Scale
Time Frame: day 0 and day 30
The scale developed by Pachana et al. (2007) was adapted to Turkish by Pamir Akın (2010). The Geriatric Anxiety Inventory (GAS) aims to measure anxiety symptoms in the elderly in a dimensional way. The basic psychometric feature of the scale is that it can differentiate both the anxious/non-anxious group and the group with/without generalized anxiety disorder. The cut-off point of the scale for generalized anxiety disorder was determined as 10/11. Accordingly, the scale; "anxiety symptoms and generalized anxiety disorder > 10; only anxiety symptoms < 10". There is no reverse coded item in the scale, which consists of 20 items and is scored over two dimensions: "I agree" and "I do not agree". Accordingly, 1 point is given for the "agree" option and 0 points for the "disagree" option. Therefore, the scores obtained from the scale can vary between 0 and 20.
