Amaç: Çalışmada mesleki sağlık eğitimi alan öğrencilerde COVID-19 salgını nedeniyle oluşan endişe şiddeti ve COVID-19 fobisini belirlemek amaçlanmıştır.
Gereç ve Yöntem: Tanımlayıcı nitelikteki araştırmanın evrenini bir üniversitede 2020-2021 eğitim-öğretim yılında mesleki sağlık eğitimi alan (Anestezi, Diyaliz, İlk ve Acil Yardım) öğrenciler (n=473) oluşturmuş olup, tüm evren örneklem olarak kabul edilmiş ve çalışmaya katılmayı kabul eden 398 öğrenci örneklemi oluşturmuştur. Veriler sosyodemografik bilgi formu, Endişe Şiddeti Ölçeği (EŞÖ) ve COVİD 19 Fobisi Ölçeği (CP19-S) kullanılarak online olarak toplanmıştır. EŞÖ Cronbach-Alfa değeri 0,907; CP19-S Cronbach-Alfa değeri 0,948 olarak saptanmıştır. Verilerin analizinde SPSS 23 programı kullanılmış, sonuçlar %95’lik güven aralığında ve p<0,05 anlamlılık düzeyinde değerlendirilmiştir.
Bulgular: Katılanların EŞÖ puanı 9,2±5,8, CP19-S puanı 49,9±16,6 olarak belirlenmiştir. Kadınların CP19-S puanlarının (51,0±19,9) erkeklerden (45,8±14,9) yüksek ve kadınların EŞÖ puanlarının (9,53±6,0) erkeklerden (8,1±5,0) yüksek olduğu, belirlenmiştir (p<0,05). Kronik rahatsızlığı olanların EŞÖ puanlarının (12,0±4,4), olamayanlardan (9,0±5,8) yüksek olduğu saptanmıştır (p<0,05). EŞÖ ile CP19-S ve tüm alt boyutları arasında pozitif yönde bir ilişki belirlenmiştir (p=0,000). EŞÖ ile CP19-S arasında anlamlı bir ilişki (R=0,587a; Adjusted R 2 =0,342; p<0,01); bulunmuştur.
Sonuç: Özellikle kadın ve kronik hastalığa sahip öğrencilerin pandemi sürecinde endişe şiddetinin ve koronavirüs fobisinin yüksek olduğu, katılımcıların endişe şiddeti düzeyinin, koronovirüs fobisi düzeyini önemli ölçüde etkilediği belirlenmiştir.

The present data was collected online manner using sociodemographic information form, Anxiety Severity Scale (ESÖ) and Coronavirus 19 Phobia Scale (CP19-S). ESD Cronbach-Alpha value 0.907; CP19-S Cronbach-Alpha was 0.948. SPSS 23 program was used in the analysis of the data, the results were evaluated in the confidence range of 95% and at the level of p<0.05.
Results: The RSP score of the students was 9.2±5.8 and the CP19-S score was 49.9±16.6. It was determined that women's CP19-S scores (51.0±19.9) were higher than men's (45±8±14.9) and women's ECO scores (9.53±6.0) were also higher than men's (8.1±5.0) (p<0.05). It was determined that the CSR scores (12.0±4.4) of those with chronic conditions were higher than those who did not (9±5±8) (p<0.05). A positive relationship was established between CP19-S and all its subdivisions (p=0.000). A significant relationship between ESP and CP19-S (R=0.587a; Adjusted R 2 =0.342; p<0.01); has been found.
Conclusions: Especially women and students with chronic diseases were found to have high anxiety severity and coronavirus phobia during the pandemic process, and the level of anxiety severity of the participants affected the level of coronavirus phobia by 58%.
