Abstract

Objective: This study was conducted to determine the effect of mandala coloring on anxiety and quality of life of women in the climacteric period.

Methods: This research was conducted as an experimental study based on a randomized controlled pre-test and post-test model (single-blind). The study was conducted with women in the climacteric period who presented to a training and research hospital in a western city of Turkey between November 1, 2022, and April 28, 2023. Participants were divided into mandala coloring (n=38) and control groups (n=38).

Results: According to the women's socio-demographic and descriptive characteristics, mean age, body mass index, and frequency of menopausal symptoms were similar in both groups. The mean post-test scores of the women in the mandala coloring group on the state-trait anxiety inventory and menopause-specific quality of life questionnaire vasomotor, psychosocial, physical, and sexual subscales (29.71±5.22, 0.86±0.97, 0.53±0.61, 0.79±0.84, and 0.92±1.24, respectively) were lower than the mean post-test scores of the women in the control group on the same scales (41.02±1.20, 1.79±1.76, 1.49±1.39, 1.72±1.38, and 1.95±1.82, respectively) (p=0.000).

Conclusion: Mandala coloring reduces menopause-related anxiety levels and improves quality of life effectively.

曼陀罗涂色对处于更年期妇女的焦虑和生活质量的影响：一项随机对照研究。

研究目的本研究旨在确定曼陀罗涂色对处于更年期妇女的焦虑和生活质量的影响：本研究采用随机对照的前测和后测模式（单盲）进行实验研究。研究对象为 2022 年 11 月 1 日至 2023 年 4 月 28 日期间在土耳其西部城市一家培训和研究医院就诊的处于更年期的女性。参与者被分为曼陀罗着色组（38 人）和对照组（38 人）：根据妇女的社会人口学特征和描述性特征，两组妇女的平均年龄、体重指数和更年期症状频率相似。曼陀罗涂色组妇女在状态-特质焦虑量表和更年期生活质量问卷血管运动、心理社会、生理和性分量表上的平均测试后得分（29.71±5.22，0.86±0.97，0.53±0.61、0.79±0.84 和 0.92±1.24），低于对照组妇女在相同量表上的测试后平均得分（分别为 41.02±1.20、1.79±1.76、1.49±1.39、1.72±1.38 和 1.95±1.82）（P=0.000）：曼陀罗涂色能有效降低与更年期相关的焦虑水平，提高生活质量。
