The Relationship between Coronavirus Phobia and Negative Emotion Status of Adults Doing Regular Physical Activity During the COVID-19 Pandemic Process

Öz

The aim of this study was to investigate the correlation between coronavirus phobia and negative emotional states of adults who do regular physical activity during the COVID-19 pandemic process. A total of 423 people, including women (n=202) and men (n=221) who do regular physical activity, voluntarily participated in this study. The number of people according to the sport type of the participants (Individual=208, Team Sport=97 and Fitness for Health=118) and the number of persons in the sports level of interest (Professional= 79, Amateur= 262, Recreational=82) were determined. As a data collection tool, the Personal Information Form for the demographic information of the participants, the COVID-19 Phobia scale (C19P-S), and the Depression, Anxiety, and Stress (DASS-42) Scale were applied online using a Google questionnaire. A statistically significant difference was found according to gender in the psychological, somatic, social subscale, and total scores of the COVID-19 phobia scales of the participants (p<,05). Similarly, a statistically significant difference was found in DAS scores and stress scores according to gender (p<,05). In the COVID-19 phobia scale total score, the mean score of team sports is higher than the mean score of fitness for health purposes in addition to depression and anxiety scores, the mean score of team sports was found to be significantly higher than the mean score of individual athletes. It was found that the anxiety scores of those who are recreationally involved in sports are significantly higher than those who do sports professionally, and it was determined that there was a moderately significant positive correlation between the COVID-19 phobia in all subscales and scale total scores and DAS scores of the participants (p< ,05). Women have a higher fear of COVID-19 than men. It was found that the depression and anxiety scores of those who do team sports were higher than those who do individual sports. It can be said that the negative mood symptoms of professional athletes are at a lower level than those who do sports for amateur and recreational purposes.

COVID-19 Pandemi Sürecinde Düzenli Fiziksel Aktivite Yapan Yetişkinlerin Koronavirüs Fobisi ve Negatif Duygu Durumları Arasındaki İlişki

Öz

Bu çalışmanın amacı COVID-19 pandemi sürecinde düzenli fiziksel aktivite yapan yetişkin bireylerin koronavirüs fobisi ve negatif duygu durumları arasındaki ilişkinin araştırılmasıdır. Bu çalışmaya düzenli fiziksel aktivite yapan kadın (n=202) ve erkek (n=221) olmak üzere toplamda 423 kişi gönüllü olarak katılmıştır. Katılımcıların spor türüne (Bireysel=208, Takım Sporu=97 ve Sağlık Amaçlı Fitness=118) ve ilgilenilen spor düzeylerine göre kişi sayıları (Profesyonel= 79, Amatör= 262, Rekreatif amaçlı=82) belirlenmiştir. Veri toplama aracı olarak, katılımcıların demografik bilgileri için kişisel bilgi formunun yanı sıra COVID-19 Fobisi ölçeği (C19P-S) ve Depresyon, Anksiyete ve Stres (DASS-42) ölçeği online anket yöntemi ile Google anket formu kullanılarak toplanmıştır. Katılımcıların psikolojik, psiko-somatik, sosyal alt boyutları ve COVID-19 fobi ölçek toplam puanlarında cinsiyete göre istatistiksel olarak anlamlı farklılık tespit edilmiştir (p< ,05). Benzer şekilde DAS puanlarında stres puanlarında da cinsiyete göre istatistiksel olarak anlamlı farklılık tespit edilmiştir (p< ,05). COVID-19 fobi ölçek toplam puanında takım sporunun puan ortalaması sağlık amaçlı fitness puan ortalamasından yüksek olduğu ayrıca depresyon ve anksiyete puanlarında ise takım sporunun puan ortalaması bireysel sporcuların puan ortalamasından anlamlı derecede yüksek olarak tespit edilmiştir. Rekreatif olarak sporla ilgilenenlerin anksiyete puanları profesyonel olarak spor yapanlardan anlamlı derecede yüksek olduğu ve katılımcıların COVID-19 fobi tüm alt boyut ve ölçek toplam puanları ile DAS puanları arasında pozitif yönde orta düzeyde anlamlı ilişkiler olduğu tespit edilmiştir (p< ,05). Kadınların COVID-19 korkularının erkeklere göre daha yüksek olduğu, takım sporu yapanların depresyon ve anksiyete puanlarının bireysel spor yapanlara göre daha yüksek olduğu bulunmuştur. Profesyonel sporcuların negatif duygu durum semptomlarının amatör ve rekreatif amaçlı spor yapanlara göre daha düşük seviyede olduğu söylenebilir.
