Any intervention was not made to patients in the control group. Percentage distribution, arithmetic mean, standard deviation, chisquare, independent samples t test, and paired t test were used to assess the data. Results: Patients in the control and experimental group pretest subscale and the total means scores of FROGS was found to be low. In the post test subscale and total means scores of FROGS in the experimental group were higher than in the control group and the differences between them were found to be statistically significant (p b 0.05). In the experimental group pretest and post-test subscale and total means scores of FR0GS was determined to be statistically significant (p b 0.05).
