Population and Sample of the Research The population of the research will consist of 10-18 year old children who were diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia and received chemotherapy who were admitted to the Childrens Hematology Clinic of Adana City Training and Research Hospital between 19052024 and 19052025 In this study G-power prior power analysis was performed to determine the sample size In the power analysis it was determined that if the study was conducted with a total of 60 participants in two groups with 30 participants in each group for the t test in independent groups 80 power could be achieved with a 95 confidence interval at a significance level of 005 It was decided to collect data from a total of 66 children by including a 10 backup sample in this number in case of data loss
Therapeutic game In the research a preliminary application will be made first A special play bag will be created for each child patient which will not threaten his health and can be disinfected Therapeutic play sessions will occur over a 4-week period during chemotherapy treatment Therapeutic game 2 days a week for a maximum of 60 minutes It will be carried out for 4 weeks

Evaluation of Data The data will be analyzed with the SPSS for Windows 22 package program The normality distribution of the data will be determined by Kurtosis and Skewness coefficients In the analysis of the data in addition to numbers percentages averages and standard deviations t-test will be used in independent groups for normally distributed measurements and Mann Whitney U analysis will be used for non-normally distributed measurements in comparing paired groups Statistical significance will be accepted as p005
Ethical Principles of Research In order to conduct the research official permission was obtained from the relevant institution with ethical approval from the Ataturk University Non-Interventional Clinical Research Ethics Committee Clinical trials will be registered for randomized controlled studies The purpose of the study will be explained to children and parents who meet the research group criteria their questions will be answered and their verbal and written consent will be obtained Children and parents will be informed that the data collected during the research will be processed confidentially and anonymously will not be used outside of the study in question and that they can leave the study at any time Since the research is based on the use of data obtained from humans and therefore the need to respect personal rights the relevant ethical principles of Informed Consent Volunteering and Protection of Confidentiality will be followed The Principle of Equality will be tried to be fulfilled by giving the children in the control group the same game bags given to the children in the intervention group
