Randomization description
Initial sampling will be available in a non-randomized way.Then, the samples in this study will be assigned by random allocation of patients in the study groups (control, medication intervention and artistic intervention). Samples will be assigned to three groups by random sampling block Permutation. In this way, the study will continue until the number of samples has been completed.
To implement this randomization method, the following will be done:
1. The total sample size and sample size ratio will be specified in the groups.
2. Single digit numbers between 0 and 9 will be selected from random numbers table.
3.For studies with 3 groups, numbers 0-9 will be divided into 3 equal blocks, wich the probability of allocating one to each block will be 0.5. Block 1-3 will be used for the first group and block 4-6 for the second group and block 7-9 for the third group.It will be determined by numbers selected from random numbers table and blocks determination that anyone who has entered the study will be placed in which group.

Other design features
Similar studies have been conducted on several surgeries, but none have studied just one particular surgery. Since the type of surgery affects the amount of anxiety, we have studied only the tonsillectomy surgery, which is the second most commonly used surgical procedure in children.
