Objectives: Restrictive preventions due to COVID-19 have caused changes in lifestyles. The study aimed to investigate the occupational performances and psychosocial statuses of individuals in social isolation in Turkey during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Materials and Methods: The study included 651 participants. A sociodemographic form, the Hospital Anxiety Depression Scale and the Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support were used for measurement. Occupational performance levels and satisfaction were evaluated out of 10.
Results: The findings indicated that there had been significant changes to participants’ sleep patterns (65.1%), nutritional intake (96.5%), physical activity (89.7%), leisure time (92.8%) and productive activities (77.3%). There was a negative correlation between the Hospital Anxiety Depression Scale scores, occupational performance scores and the Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support scores (p<0.001). Also, there was a positive correlation between occupational performance scores and the Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support scores (p<0.001).
Conclusion: The COVID-19 pandemic has affected people's lives, occupational performance and psychological states.

Gereç ve Yöntem: Çalışmaya 651 katılımcı dahil edildi. Değerlendirme için sosyodemografik bilgi form, Hastane Anksiyete Depresyon Ölçeği ve Çok Boyutlu Algılanan Sosyal Destek Ölçeği kullanıldı. Okupasyonel performans düzeyleri ve memnuniyetleri 10 üzerinden değerlendirildi.
Bulgular: Katılımcıların uyku düzenlerinde (%65.1), besin alımında (%96.5), fiziksel aktivitede (%89.7), serbest zaman aktivitelerinde (%92.8) ve üretkenlik aktivitelerinde (%77.3) önemli değişiklikler olduğunu göstermiştir. Hastane Anksiyete Depresyon Ölçeği puanları, okupasyonel performans puanları ve Çok Boyutlu Algılanan Sosyal Destek Ölçeği puanları arasında negatif korelasyon vardı (p<0,001). Ayrıca okupasyonel performans puanları ile Çok Boyutlu Algılanan Sosyal Destek Ölçeği puanları arasında pozitif bir ilişki vardı (p<0,001).
