The study was carried out on international databases between March-June 2020. In this context, Web of Science, Science Direct, Sage, Springer Link constitute the sample of the research. Within the scope of the study created in the qualitative design, the academic articles obtained from these databases were analyzed by meta-thematic analysis method. The research findings were interpreted according to certain themes and the details of the findings were reflected in the conclusion part of the study and inferences were made regarding the concept of social distance.</p></trans-abstract>
