PANDEMİ SÜRECİNDE ÖLÜM KAYGISI, COVİD-19 KORKUSU VE AŞI TEREDDÜDÜ İLİŞKİSİNİN İNCELENMESİ

Öz

Bu araştırmanın amacı COVID-19 korkusu, aşı tereddüdü ve ölüm kaygısı ilişkisini ortaya koymaktır. Ayrıca yakınını kaybetme ve aşı doz sayısı gibi değişkenlerin söz konusu faktörler üzerindeki etkisi de irdelenmektedir. Bu kapsamda Mart 2022 tarihinden itibaren veriler online olarak 138 yetişkin bireyden toplanmıştır. Veri toplama aracı olarak COVID-19 Korkusu Ölçeği, Aşı Tereddüt Ölçeği ve Ölüm Kaygısı Ölçeği kullanılmıştır. Veriler IBM SPSS Statistics 25.0 kullanılarak analiz edilmiştir. Araştırma değişkenlerine göre bağımsız örneklem t-testi, Tek Yönlü Varyans Analizi (ANOVA), Regresyon Analizi ve anlamlı farklılıklar tespit edildiğinde, Tukey HSD post-hoc testleri uygulanmıştır. Araştırma sonucunda, COVID-19 korkusu ve ölüm kaygısı arasında anlamlı bir ilişki olduğu; COVID-19 korkusu ile ölüm kaygısının aşı tereddüdü üzerinde bir etki göstermediği; aşı olma durumunun COVID-19 korkusu ve ölüm kaygısı düzeyleri üzerinde anlamlı bir etkiye sahip olmadığı; yakınını kaybetme durumunun bireylerin korku, tereddüt ve kaygı düzeyleri üzerinde belirleyici bir etkiye sahip olmadığı; aşı doz sayısındaki artışla birlikte COVID-19 korkusunun azalma eğilimi gösterdiği; aşı tereddüt düzeyinin önemli ölçüde düşebileceği ve aşı doz sayısının aşı tereddüdünü düşürebileceği görülmüştür.

Anahtar Kelimeler

• COVID-19 korkusu
• Aşı tereddüdü
• Ölüm kaygısı
• Yakınını kaybetme.

EXAMINING THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN DEATH ANXIETY, FEAR OF COVID-19 AND VACCINE HESITANCY DURING THE PANDEMIC PROCESS

Öz

This research aims to reveal the relationship between fear of COVID-19, vaccine hesitancy and death anxiety. In addition, it also examines the impact of variables such as loss of a relative and the number of vaccine doses on these factors. In this context, data was collected online from 138 adult individuals as of March 2022. Fear of COVID-19 Scale, Vaccine Hesitancy Scale and Death Anxiety Scale were used as data collection tools. The data obtained through the study were analysed using IBM SPSS Statistics 25.0. Independent sample t-test, One-Way Analysis of Variance (ANOVA), Regression Analysis and Tukey HSD post-hoc tests were applied when significant differences were detected according to the research variables. As a result of the research, it was found that there was a significant relationship between fear of COVID-19 and death anxiety; fear of COVID-19 and death anxiety did not have an effect on vaccine hesitancy; vaccination status did not have a significant effect on the levels of fear of COVID-19 and death anxiety; the loss of a relative does not have a decisive effect on individuals' fear, hesitation and anxiety levels; the fear of COVID-19 tends to decrease with the increase in the number of vaccine doses. It has been observed that the level of vaccine hesitancy can decrease significantly and the number of vaccine doses can reduce vaccine hesitancy.

Anahtar Kelimeler

• Fear of COVID-19
• Vaccine hesitancy
• Death anxiety
• Losing a loved one.
