Amaç: Türkiye’de COVID-19 salgını sürecinde toplumdaki bireylerin teknoloji kullanım alışkanlıkları, fiziksel aktivite durumu, ruhsal sağlığı ve uyku kalitesini araştırmaktır.
Materyal ve metod: Bu çalışma COVID-19 pandemisinde Türkiye genelinde 18-50 yaş grubu 970 gönüllü kişiler üzerinde çevrimiçi veri toplama yöntemiyle gerçekleştirilmiş bir anket çalışmasıdır. Araştırmada veri toplama aracı olarak alanında uzman kişilerin onayından geçmiş yarı yapılandırılmış değerlendirme formu kullanılmıştır. Değerlendirme formu bireylerin demografik bilgileri, teknolojik cihaz kullanım alışkanlıkları, fiziksel aktivite, ruhsal sağlık ve uyku kalitesini sorgulamak üzere üç bölümden oluşmaktadır.
Bulgular: Çalışmaya katılan bireylerin yaş ortalamaları 26,56 yıl ve %69,8'i kadın idi. Katılımcıların pandemi sürecinde en sık kullandıkları teknolojik cihazların sırasıyla; %92,9 telefon, %72,3 televizyon ve %59 bilgisayar idi. Katılımcılar gün içerisinde ortalama olarak 6,23 saat teknolojik cihaz kullandıkları ve pandemi öncesine göre teknolojik cihaz kullanma sürelerinin ortalama olarak 3,28 saat arttığı saptandı. Pandemi sürecinde katılımcıların %92,8’i sağlık durumlarının etkilendiği ve %60,5’inde stres, %45,1’inde iştah artışı, %31,6’sında depresyon ve %28,9’unda ise takıntı gibi ruhsal problemler olduğu görüldü. Pandemi döneminde evinde sedanter şekilde vaktini oturarak ya da uzanarak geçirenlerin oranının %46,3 olduğu görülmüştür. Bununla birlikte, katılımcıların %74,2’nin pandemi sürecinde uyku kalitelerinin etkilendiği, uyuma ve uyanma saatleri değişenlerin oranının ise %79,9 olduğu saptandı.
Sonuç: Katılımcıların salgın sürecinde en fazla kullandıkları teknolojik cihazın akıllı telefon olduğu ve pandemi döneminde teknolojik cihaz kullanım süresinin yaklaşık olarak 2 kat arttığı saptandı. Pandemi nedeniyle oluşan ruhsal sağlık problemlerin başında stres gelirken, fiziksel aktivite durumunun ve uyku kalitesinin de etkilendiği görüldü.
