Araştırma, çalışan ve çalışmayan annelerin COVID-19 salgını sebebiyle yaşadıkları stres düzeyinin belirlenmesi ve karşılaştırılması amacıyla yapılmıştır. Araştırma iki aşamalı olarak gerçekleştirilmiş olup hem nicel hem de nitel araştırma teknikleri bir arada kullanılmıştır. Araştırmanın birinci aşamasında çalışan ve çalışmayan 420 anneye ölçek uygulanmış ve sonucunda da COVID-19 salgını sebebiyle yaşadıkları stres düzeyinin çalışan ve çalışmayan annelerde farklılık gösterdiği belirlenmiştir. Çalışmayan annelerin yaşadıkları stres düzeyinin çalışan annelere oranla daha yüksek olduğu bulunmuştur. Araştırmanın ikinci aşamasında gönüllü 20 anne ile online görüşme yapılmıştır. Bu aşamada annelerin yaşadıkları stresi etkileyen faktörlerin belirlenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Yapılan görüşmeler sonucunda annelerin pandemi sürecinde yaşadıkları stres durumlarının temelinde çocuklarının olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Annelerin çocukları ile ilgili stres yaşadıkları alanlar sağlık, eğitim, ruh hali, sosyal ilişkiler ve önlem temaları kapsamında incelenmiştir. Sağlık temasının beş, eğitim temasının beş, ruh hali temasının beş, sosyal ilişkiler temasının beş ve önlem temasının da yirmi alt teması bulunmaktadır.
