Abstract

Amaç: Bu araştırma, pandemi sürecinde ebeveynlerde COVID-19 korkusunu ve etkileyen faktörleri belirlemek amacıyla yapılmıştır.
Gereç ve Yöntem: Bu araştırma hem tanımlayıcı hem de kesitsel bir araştırmadır. Araştırma, Erzurum'da ikamet eden ebeveynler (sağlık personeli olan ve olmayan) ile gerçekleştirilmiştir. Örneklem grubu en küçük örnekleme yöntemi hesaplama formülü ile belirlenmiş ve 511 ebeveyne ulaşılmıştır. Araştırmada veri toplama aracı olarak “Tanıtıcı Bilgi Formu” ve “COVID-19 Korku Ölçeği” kullanılmıştır.
Bulgular: Düşük gelirli ve çocuklarını anaokuluna/kreşe gönderen ebeveynlerin COVID-19 korku düzeyi oldukça yüksekti. Ebeveynlerde COVID-19 korku düzeyleri ortalama düzeydeydi.
Sonuç: Araştırma bulgularına göre ebeveynlerin COVID-19 korku düzeylerinin ortalama seviyede olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Düşük gelire sahip olan ve çocuklarını anaokullarına/gündüz bakımevlerine gönderen ebeveynlerin COVID-19 korku düzeyi oldukça yüksektir. Ayrıca, COVID-19 kaynaklı korku ebeveynlerin dışarı çıkma alışkanlıklarını ve yaşam kalitelerini etkilemiştir. Artan COVID-19 korku düzeyi, çocuklar, ebeveynler ve sosyal geçmiş dikkate alındığında olumsuz bir paya sahiptir; bu nedenle sosyal ve ruh sağlığına yardımcı olabilecek her türlü aktivite desteklenmelidir.

Determining the Fear of COVID-19 in Parents and Affecting Factors

Abstract

Aim: This research was conducted to determine the fear of COVID-19 in parents during the pandemic and the factors affecting it.
Material and Method: This research is both a descriptive and cross-sectional study. The research was conducted with parents (both health personnel and not) inhabiting Erzurum. The sample group was determined by the smallest sampling method calculation formula and 511 parents were reached. "Introductory Information Form" and "COVID-19 Fear Scale," were used as data collection tools in the study.
Results: COVID-19 fear level of parents who had low income and sent their children to kindergartens/daycares was substantially high. The levels of COVID-19 fear in parents are on average.
Conclusion: According to the findings of the research, it was determined that the parents' COVID-19 fear levels are average. The COVID-19 fear level of parents who had low income and sent their children to kindergartens/daycares was substantially high. Besides, COVID-19-related fear affected the habit of going out and the life qualities of parents. The increased COVID-19 fear level has its negative share considering children, parents, and social background; therefore, every activity that can help social and mental health should be supported.
