Covid-19, 2019 yılı sonundan itibaren pandemi olarak ortaya çıkmış ve bireylerin ruh sağlığını etkileyerek kaygıya, korkuya ve umutsuzluğa neden olmuştur. Bu araştırmada, Covid-19 bağlantılı kaygının bireylerin pozitif ve negatif duyguları ile ilişkisinin ortaya konulması amaçlanmaktadır.
Çevrimiçi ortamda yürütülen bu kesitsel araştırmaya, 31.3 (SS=10.20) yaş ortalamasına sahip 3121 kişi dahil edilmiştir. Veriler, Sosyodemografik Bilgi Formu, Salgın Hastalık Kaygı Ölçeği ve Pozitif ve Negatif Duygu Ölçeği aracılığıyla toplanmıştır.
Bu çalışmada, salgın hastalık kaygısı ile pozitif duygular arasında negatif yönde anlamlı bir ilişki saptanmıştır (r=-0.057; p<.001); salgın hastalık kaygısı ile negatif duygular arasında ise pozitif yönde anlamlı bir ilişki tespit edilmiştir (r=0.571; p<.001). Ekonomik kaygı ile negatif duygular arasında pozitif yönde anlamlı bir ilişki gösterilmiştir (r=-0.335; p<.001). Karantina kaygısı ile pozitif duygular arasında negatif yönde anlamlı bir ilişki saptanmıştır (r=-0.044; p<.05). Karantina kaygısı ile negatif duygular arasında pozitif yönde anlamlı bir ilişki tespit edilmiştir (r=0.534; p<.001). Sosyal yaşam kaygısı ile negatif duygular arasında ise pozitif yönde anlamlı bir ilişki gösterilmiştir (r=0.489; p<.001). Bu araştırmanın sonuçları pozitif ve negatif duygular ile salgın hastalık kaygısı, ekonomik kaygılar, karantina kaygısı, sosyal yaşam kaygısının ilişkisine işaret etmektedir.
Bu ilişki kaygıların duyguları etkilemesi şeklinde olabileceği gibi, duyguların kaygı düzeyini etkilemesi şeklinde de olabilir. Bu nedenle Covid-19 gibi salgın hastalık süreçlerinde kaygıyı yatıştıracak önlemler alınırken mutlaka pozitif ve negatif duygular da incelenmeli ve onarıcı önlemler alınmalıdır.

THE RELATIONSHIP OF COVID-19 RELATED ANXIETY WITH POSITIVE AND NEGATIVE EMOTIONS OF INDIVIDUALS

Öz

Covid-19 has emerged as a pandemic that has affected all humanity since the end of 2019 and has affected the mental health of individuals, causing anxiety, fear, uncertainty, and hopelessness. This study aimed to examine the relationship between anxiety caused by Covid-19 and positive and negative emotions.
3121 people with an average age of 31.3 (SD=10.20) were included in this cross-sectional study conducted online. Data were collected via Sociodemographic Information Form, Epidemic Anxiety Scale (EAS), and Positive and Negative Emotion Scale (PNES).
In this study, a significant negative correlation was found between epidemic anxiety and positive emotions (r=-0.057; p<.001); A positive and significant relationship was found between epidemic anxiety and negative emotions (r=0.571; p<.001). A significant positive correlation was found between economic anxiety and negative emotions (r=-0.335; p<.001). A significant negative correlation was found between quarantine anxiety and positive emotions (r=-0.044; p<.05). A significant positive correlation was found between quarantine anxiety and negative emotions (r=0.534; p<.001). A significant positive correlation was found between social life anxiety and negative emotions (r=0.489; p<.001).
The results of this research point out the relationship between positive and negative emotions and epidemic anxiety, economic concerns, quarantine anxiety, and social life anxiety. This relationship can be in the form of anxieties affecting emotions, or it can be in the form of emotions affecting the level of anxiety. For this reason, while taking measures to calm anxiety in epidemic disease processes such as Covid-19, positive and negative emotions should be examined, and reparative measures should be taken.
