Abstract

This study was conducted to evaluate the moderator role of anxiety disorder in the effect of the fear of covid-19 on loneliness. The questionnaire form, which is delivered to the participants face-to-face and online, includes the Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 (GAD-7) Scale, Revised UCLA Loneliness Scale (RULS-6), and the Fear of COVID-19 Scale, as well as personal characteristics. The sample of the study consists of 760 people in total. The total mean score of the Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 (GAD-7) Scale was 8.41; Revised UCLA Loneliness Scale (RULS-6) was 15.19; The Fear of COVID-19 Scale was 16.68. It was observed that anxiety disorder had a regulatory role in the effect of fear of Covid-19 on loneliness. As anxiety disorder increases, the effect of fear of Covid-19 on loneliness decreases. It is important to convey the right information through various channels (such as social media) to those with high anxiety disorders at the point of reducing the fear of covid-19. Thus, the feelings of loneliness of individuals will be reduced.

COVID-19 KORKUSUNUN YALNIZLIĞA ETKİSİ: ANKSİYETE BOZUKLUĞUNUN DÜZENLEYİCİ ROLÜ

Abstract

Bu çalışma, Covid-19 korkusunun yalnızlık üzerindeki etkisinde anksiyete bozukluğunun düzenleyici rolünü değerlendirmek amacıyla gerçekleştirilmiştir. Katılımcılara yüz yüze ve online olarak ulaştırılan anket formu, kişisel özelliklerin yanı sıra Yaygın Anksiyete Bozukluğu-7 (YAB-7) Ölçeği, Revize Edilmiş UCLA Yalnızlık Ölçeği (RULS-6) ve COVID-19 Korku Ölçeği' ni içermektedir. Araştırmanın örneklemi toplam 760 kişiden oluşmaktadır. Yaygın Anksiyete Bozukluğu-7 (YAB-7) Ölçeği toplam puan ortalaması 8.41; Revize edilmiş UCLA Yalnızlık Ölçeği (RULS-6) 15.19; COVID-19 Ölçeği Korkusu 16.68’dir. Covid-19 korkusunun yalnızlık üzerine etkisinde anksiyete bozukluğunun düzenleyici role sahip olduğu görülmüştür. Anksiyete bozukluğu arttıkça, Covid-19 korkusunun yalnızlık üzerine etkisi azalmaktadır. Anksiyete bozukluğu yüksek olanlara, covid-19 korkusunun azaltılması noktasında çeşitli kanallar (sosyal medya gibi) aracılığıyla doğru bilginin aktarılması önem arz etmektedir. Böylece bireylerin yalnızlık duyguları da azalmış olacaktır.
