Actual (reported)The Effect of Nutrition Education on Premenstrual Syndrome
Symptoms of premenstrual syndrome to reduce (PMSS)
The participants who did not state their music preference were played classical music, a music genre expected to be effective in reducing their pain and anxiety. Since the control group consisted of people who did not make any application to reduce PMSS, no application was made to this. After the application, the experimental and control groups filled with the PMSS again.

The Premenstrual Syndrome Scale (PMSS)
The PMSS was developed by Gençdoğan et al. (2006) to asses premenstrual symptom complaints (Gençdoğan et al., 2006). The scale is a 5-point Likert type and it consists of 44 items.The scale has nine subscales including depressive affection, anxiety, fatigue, irritability, depressive thoughts, pain, changes in appetite, sleep changes, and swelling. The premenstrual syndrome scale is administered by evaluating retrospectively, in other words, the week before the menstruation is taken into account. The overall premenstrual syndrome scale score is the sum of the scores of the nine subscales.The minimum and maximum possible scores to be obtained from this easily self-administered PMSS are 44 and 220 respectively. While the score of 44 points means no PMS, points between 45 and 103 indicate mild PMS, points between 104 and 163 indicate moderate PMS, and points between 164 and 220 severe PMS (Gençdoğan et al., 2006).

Short form of the WHOQOL-BREF
The World Health Organization (WHO) developed the WHOQOL-100 scale (Whoqol et al., 1998). The validity and reliability study of the Turkish version of the WHOQOL-BREF was performed by Eser (Eser et al., 1998). The WHOQOL-BREF consists of four domains, namely physical health, psychological health, social relationships, and environment. Responses given to the items are rated on a 5-point Likert type scale. The questions are answered by considering the last 15 days. The WHOQOL-BREF doesn't have a total score. The score of each domain indicates the level of quality of life for that domain. The higher the score is the better the quality of life is. The first two questions of the scale are not included in the scoring and are evaluated separately. The 3rd, 4th, and 26th questions in the scale are negatively keyed expressions (Whoqol et al., 1998; Skevington et al., 2004). While the original scale has 26 items, the Turkish version has 27 items.
