While Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) has demonstrated efficacy in reducing psychological distress across various clinical settings, its specific application to parental anxiety during the neonatal screening period remains under-researched. This study addresses this gap by investigating the impact of a targeted EFT intervention on anxiety levels in mothers awaiting their newborns' first hearing tests.\n\nThe primary objective is to determine if a brief, 15-minute EFT session reduces maternal anxiety more effectively than a standard waiting period. Participants are randomly assigned to either an intervention group, where they perform a structured acupoint tapping sequence, or a control group that receives no active intervention. Anxiety is assessed using validated scales immediately before and after the 15-minute period to capture acute changes in distress. The researchers hypothesize that applying EFT regarding the procedure will significantly reduce parental anxiety levels compared to the non-intervention group.",[65,30],"Anxiety",[67,68,69,70,71,72,73,74],"Emotional Freedom Technique","Parental Health","Tapping","Complementary Therapies","Neonatal Screening","Acupressure","EFT","Newborn Hearing Screening","2026-04-10",{"date":77,"type":43},"2026-04-15",{"date":79,"type":43},"2026-03-31",{"date":81,"type":22},"2026-09",{"name":83,"class":50},"Abant Izzet Baysal University"]
