Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Using the Japanese version of the mYPAS developed in this study, several raters will score children's preoperative anxiety on videos taken from entry to induction to examine inter-rater reliability. 1) Reliability was measured in two ways: interrater reliability and internal consistency. The inter-rater reliability was assessed with kappa.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
2) Spearman's rank correlation test was used to assess the correlation between the Japanese version of the m-YPAS and the Japanese version of the STAIC. 3) Perform ROC curve analysis to determine sensitivity and specificity at cutoff values using Youden index.
