Objectives: The beliefs or irrational beliefs impact the way individuals react or adapt to a threatening situation like the COVID-19 pandemic. This study assesses the relationship between healthcare workers' irrational beliefs, depression, and anxiety levels during the COVID-19 pandemic. Materials and Metods: This study was designed as a quantitative study that used the Shortened General Attitude and Belief Scale (SGABS), Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), and Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI) to 212 healthcare workers. The collected data was subjected to t-tests, ANOVA, correlation, and regression analyses. Results: The study found that male participants had significantly higher levels of Devaluation of Others / irrational beliefs, while females and unmarried individuals had significantly higher levels of anxiety. Additionally, there was a predictive effect of Irrational Beliefs / need for comfort and female gender factor on anxiety levels, and a predictive effect of Irrational Beliefs / need for comfort and age factor on depression levels. Conclusion: The results indicate the need to assess healthcare workers' irrational beliefs, depression, and anxiety levels and suggest that assessment can guide the development of potential interventions.

Öz

Amaç: İnançlar veya mantıksız inançlar, bireylerin COVID-19 salgını gibi tehdit edici bir duruma tepki verme veya uyum sağlama şeklini etkilemektedir. Bu çalışma, COVID-19 salgını sırasında sağlık çalışanlarının mantıksız inançları, depresyon ve kaygı düzeyleri arasındaki ilişkiyi değerlendirmektedir. Materyal ve Metot: Bu çalışma, Kısaltılmış Genel Tutum ve İnanç Ölçeği, Beck Depresyon Envanteri ve Beck Anksiyete Envanteri kullanılarak 212 sağlık çalışanına uygulanan nicel bir çalışma olarak tasarlanmıştır. Toplanan veriler t-testi, ANOVA, korelasyon ve regresyon analizlerleri ile değerlendirilmiştir. Bulgular:Araştırma, erkek katılımcıların anlamlı derecede yüksek düzeyde başkalarını Değersizleştirme/irrasyonel inançlara sahip olduğunu, kadınların ve evli olmayan bireylerin ise anlamlı düzeyde daha yüksek kaygı düzeylerine sahip olduğunu ortaya koymuştur. Ayrıca Akılcı Olmayan İnançlar/rahatlık ihtiyacı ve kadın cinsiyet faktörünün kaygı düzeylerini, Akılcı Olmayan İnançlar/rahatlık ihtiyacı ve yaş faktörünün ise depresyon düzeylerini yordadığı bulunmuştur. Sonuç: Araştırma sonuçları sağlık çalışanlarının mantıksız inançlarının, depresyon ve kaygı düzeylerinin değerlendirilmesi gerektiğine işaret etmekte ve değerlendirmenin potansiyel müdahalelerin geliştirilmesine rehberlik edebileceğine işaret etmektedir.
