Arms and Interventions

Arm	Intervention/Treatment
Group 1 low pain catastrophizing score in mother	Other: pain catastrophizing scala The PCS, a 13-item self-report inventory used to determine the extent to which individuals catastrophize in response to pain, was developed. Total possible scores range from 0 to 52, with higher scores indicating negative results. The Turkish version was tested for reliability and validity and the Cronbach alpha coefficient was measured at 0.90. PCS scores of 16 or lower are regarded as normal, and scores of 17 or above as high.
Group 2 high pain catastrophizing score in mother	Other: pain catastrophizing scala The PCS, a 13-item self-report inventory used to determine the extent to which individuals catastrophize in response to pain, was developed. Total possible scores range from 0 to 52, with higher scores indicating negative results. The Turkish version was tested for reliability and validity and the Cronbach alpha coefficient was measured at 0.90. PCS scores of 16 or lower are regarded as normal, and scores of 17 or above as high.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

PCS, mother, and child [18 month]
Authors will be investigated the relationship between maternal pain catastrophizing score levels and the postoperative pain experienced by the child. Empathy towards pain is necessary to notice, understand, and respond to another person's pain. Children develop empathy towards pain over time, which may be related to social learning. Pain Catastrophizing scale (PCS): The PCS is a self-assessment questionnaire to examine catastrophizing in clinical and nonclinical populations. The PCS consists of 13 statements containing a number of thoughts and feelings one may experience when having pain. The items are divided into the categories of rumination, magnification and helplessness, with each item scored on a 5-point scale, from 0 (not at all) to 4 (always), people are asked to rate how often they experience the mentioned thoughts and feelings when they are in pain. The overall score has a range of 0-52.
