Vaccination is one of the most common invasive procedures performed on healthy infants and children. These procedures can cause pain and fear in children and anxiety in parents. This study will be conducted to determine the effect of using animal-shaped magic mirrors during vaccination on pain in children aged 1-4 years and anxiety in mothers.
Mothers who have completed at least primary school and have no hearing, visual or intellectual disabilities.
Children or their mothers who do not wish to participate during the vaccination process,
Children or their mothers who wish to withdraw from the study during the research process,
Those who provide incomplete answers to the study questions will be excluded from the study.
Children aged 1-4 who have been referred by a paediatric outpatient clinic doctor for vaccination, and their mothers

Information Sheet
This form contains the socio-demographic characteristics of the mother and child. In addition to basic information such as the child's age and gender, and the mother's age, educational level, employment status and the family's income level, the form also includes details regarding the presence of chronic illnesses in the child and mother, as well as information on the child's vaccination history.The information form consists of a total of 12 questions.
State Anxiety Inventory
State Anxiety (S) assesses the level of anxiety an individual feels at a specific moment. The scale consists of 20 items. A 4-point Likert-type rating scale is used (1 = Not at all, 4 = Very much). Some items are scored directly, whilst others are reverse-scored. In the reverse-scored items, a response of 4 indicates low anxiety, whilst a response of 1 indicates high anxiety. The State Anxiety Scale contains 10 reverse-scored items (items 1, 2, 5, 8, 10, 11, 15, 16, 19, 20) (Telli, 2017). The total score ranges from 20 to 80, with a higher score indicating an increased level of anxiety.
Eastern Ontario Children's Hospital Pain Scale (EOCHAS)
The Eastern Ontario Children's Hospital Pain Scale is a measure that assesses behavioural parameters used to evaluate pain. The scale, which can be used to monitor the effectiveness of interventions aimed at reducing pain and improving comfort, comprises six parameters. The pain score is calculated as the total of the scores for all six parameters, with a minimum score of 4 and a maximum score of 13. The researcher will assess pain by observing the behaviours listed in the scale items.
