Abstract

This study investigated the mediating role of coping strategies and perceived social support in the relationship between fear of COVID-19 and life satisfaction. The study adopted a quantitative approach with a correlational design. The study group included 729 participants, and of these participants, 347 were women (47.6%) and 382 were men (52.4%). To collect the data, a personal information form, multidimensional scale of perceived social support, coping with the pandemic scale and fear of COVID scale, and Life Satisfaction Scale were used. The data were collected online through Google Forms. Before the path analysis, assumptions such as multicollinearity and normality were checked, which showed that the data were suitable for the analysis. Nearly all the correlations between the variables were significant except the one between fear of COVID and life satisfaction. The path analysis suggested that there was no significant association between fear of COVID and life satisfaction. However, the life satisfaction of individuals with fear of COVID increases as they use more coping strategies and perceive a higher level of social support. The current study, conducted on individuals who were lonely with some social and personal problems during the pandemic, will contribute to the literature. Finally, some suggestions were given based on the findings.
covid-19恐惧与生活满意度的关系:covid-19应对策略和感知社会支持作为中介
本研究探讨应对策略和感知社会支持在新冠肺炎恐惧与生活满意度关系中的中介作用。本研究采用相关设计的定量方法。该研究组包括729名参与者,其中女性347人(47.6%),男性382人(52.4%)。数据收集采用个人信息表、感知社会支持多维度量表、应对大流行量表、恐惧新冠量表和生活满意度量表。这些数据是通过谷歌表格在线收集的。在路径分析之前,对多重共线性和正态性等假设进行了检验,表明数据适合分析。除了对COVID的恐惧与生活满意度之间的相关性外,几乎所有变量之间的相关性都是显著的。通径分析显示,对COVID的恐惧与生活满意度之间没有显著相关性。然而,恐惧COVID的个人的生活满意度随着他们使用更多的应对策略和感知到更高水平的社会支持而增加。目前的研究是针对在大流行期间因一些社会和个人问题而感到孤独的个人进行的,将为文献做出贡献。最后,根据研究结果提出了建议。
