Abstract

Araştırmada COVID-19 pandemi döneminde kendisinde, ailesinde veya sık görüştüğü yakın çevresinde COVID-19 şüpheli ve doğrulanmış vaka olan yetişkinlerin sosyodemografik ve psikolojik özelliklerinin incelenmesi amaçlandı. Tanımlayıcı tipteki bu araştırma Mayıs- Haziran 2020 tarihlerinde 18 yaş ve üzeri 2549 yetişkin ile Türkiye Kırklareli’nde yürütüldü. Yetişkinlerin kendisi, ailesi ve yakın çevresinden birinin COVID-19 şüpheli vaka olma sıklığı sırasıyla %1,3, %1,7, %12,4 iken; COVID-19 doğrulanmış vaka olma sıklığı aynı sırayla %0,5, %0,5, %11,7 idi. COVID-19 pandemisinde yetişkinlerin %17,1’inin sigara içme durumunda, %7,9’ünün alkol tüketiminde, %40,0’ının aile içi iletişiminde değişim vardı ve %6,9’u bu dönemde işsiz kaldı. Kendisi, ailesi veya yakın çevresinde COVID-19 şüpheli ve doğrulanmış vaka olma olasılığı 40 yaşın altında, lise ve üzerinde, asgari ücretin üzerinde geliri olanlarda ve alkol kullananlarda yüksekti (p<0.05). Yetişkinlerin hafif, orta, şiddetli anksiyete sıklıkları sırasıyla %30,4, %14,9, %8,4; depresyon sıklıkları aynı sırayla %29,6, %24,6, %5,7 idi. Kendisi, ailesi veya yakın çevresinde COVID-19 doğrulanmış vaka olan yetişkinlerde anksiyete ve depresyon olasılığı yüksekti (p<0,05). COVID-19 ile mücadelede sosyodemografik ve psikolojik açıdan kırılgan grupların önceliklendirilmesi alınacak tedbirlerde önemlidir.

Sociodemographic and psychological characteristics of adults who have COVID-19 suspected and confirmed cases in themselves, their families or their immediate surroundings (10th-16th Weeks in COVID-19 Pandemia)

Abstract

The purpose of the study was to examine the sociodemographic and psychological characteristics of adults who have COVID-19 suspected and COVID-19 confirmed cases in themselves, their families or their immediate surroundings in the COVID-19 pandemia. The present study was conducted in Kırklareli, Turkey with 2549 people who were aged 18 and over in May-June 2020 period, and had a descriptive design. The COVID-19 suspected frequency of adults themselves, their families and one of their immediate surroundings was 1.3%, 1.7%, 12.4%, respectively; and COVID-19 confirmed frequency was 0.5%, 0.5%, 11.7%, respectively. In COVID-19 pandemia, 17.1% of the adults had changes in smoking, 7.9% changes in alcohol use, 40.0% changes in domestic communication, and 6.9% were unemployed during this period. The probability of being COVID-19 suspected and COVID-19 confirmed in oneself, family or immediate surroundings was higher in those who were under 40 years of age, who were graduated from high school and above, those with income above the minimum wage, and those who used alcohol(p<0.05). The mild, moderate, and severe anxiety levels of the adults were 30.4%, 14.9%, 8.4%, respectively; and depression levels were 29.6%, 24.6%, 5.7%, respectively. The probability of having anxiety, and depression was higher in adults who had confirmed COVID-19 in themselves, families or immediate surroundings(p<0.05). Prioritizing the vulnerable groups in sociodemographic and psychological terms in the fight against COVID-19 is important in the measures to be taken.
