Vignos lower extremity functional scale
This scale was developed to assess the level of ambulation in neuromuscular diseases and consists of 10 stages. In this scale, the ambulation level of the person decreases from the first stage to the tenth stage.
Time frame: before and after the eight-week intervention programs
Brooke upper extremity functional classification scale
This scale was developed to assess the functional levels of the upper extremity in neuromuscular diseases and consists of 6 stages. In this scale, progression from the first stage to the sixth stage indicates a decrease in the functionality of the upper extremity.
Time frame: before and after the eight-week intervention programs
The Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory 3.0 Neuromuscular Module

Children's Depression Inventory
Consisting of 27 items and using a 3-point Likert-type scale, this scale assesses the depression levels of children between the ages of 6-17. The total score of the scale, which measures the emotional state in the last 2 weeks, is 54 and the severity of depression increases as the total score increases. The cut-off value of the scale was determined as 19 points.
Time frame: before and after the eight-week intervention programs
The Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory Multidimensional Fatigue Scale
This scale consists of 18 items and 3 subsections: general fatigue (6 items), fatigue during sleep/rest (6 items) and cognitive fatigue (6 items). Separate scores can be calculated for each subsection and the total score is obtained by summing the scores obtained from these sections. High scores indicate low fatigue.
Time frame: before and after the eight-week intervention programs
The Numeric Rating Scale - Pain
This scale uses a 10-centimeter line. The left beginning of the line represents "no pain" (0 points) and the end of the line represents "excruciating pain" (10 points).
