Covid-19 Pandemisinin Farklı Meslek Gruplarına Koronafobi, Fiziksel Aktivite Engelleri, Fiziksel Aktivite Düzeyi ve Yaşam Kalitesi Açısından Etkisi

Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı, farklı meslek gruplarında Covid-19 pandemisi sırasında koronafobi, fiziksel aktivite engelleri, fiziksel aktivite düzeyleri ve yaşam kalitelerini karşılaştırmaktı. Gereç ve Yöntem: Bu çalışmaya 1685 kişi dahil edildi. Katılımcılar mesleklerine göre öğrenci (n=498), sağlık çalışanı (n=259), masa başı çalışan (n=419), özel sektör/serbest meslek (n=201), silahlı kuvvetler/güvenlik personeli (n=88) ve sınıflandırılmamış grup (n= 220) olarak gruplandırıldı. Koronafobi düzeyleri (Covid-19 Fobi Ölçeği, C19F-Ö), fiziksel aktivite engelleri (Fiziksel Aktivite Engelleri Anketi, FAEÖ), yaşam kalitesi düzeyleri (Nottingham Sağlık Profili, NSP) değerlendirildi. Bulgular: C19F-Ö toplam ve "Psikolojik" ve "Sosyal" alt boyut puan ortalamaları, FAEÖ toplam ve "Kişisel" alt boyut puan ortalamaları öğrenci grubunda diğer gruplara göre daha yüksekti (p<0,001). C19P-Ö “Ekonomik” alt boyutu puan ortalaması özel sektör/serbest meslek grubunda daha yüksekti (p<0,001). FAEÖ “Sosyal” alt boyut puanı sağlık çalışanlarında daha yüksek bulundu (p<0.05). Sonuç: Bu çalışmanın sonuçları, sağlık çalışanlarında fiziksel aktivite engelinin sosyal faktörlerden kaynaklanabileceğini ve özel sektör/serbest meslek grubundaki bireylerin koronafobisinin daha çok ekonomik nedenlerden kaynaklanabileceğini desteklemektedir. Bu çalışma, farklı meslek gruplarının yaşam tarzlarının pandeminin farklı yönlerinden etkilenebileceğini düşündürmektedir. İleride yapılacak çalışmalarda tüm meslek grupları için bireysel egzersiz takip sistemi oluşturulabilir.

The Effect of COVID-19 Pandemic on Different Occupational Groups in terms of Coronaphobia, Barriers to Physical Activity, and Quality of Life

Objectives: The aim of this study was to compare coronaphobia, barriers to physical activity, the levels of physical activity and quality of life in different occupational groups during the Covid-19 pandemic. Materials and Methods: 1685 individuals were included in this study. Participants were grouped per their professions as students (n=498), healthcare workers (n=259), desk workers (n=419), private sector/self-employed (n=201), army/security personnel (n=88), and non-classified (n= 220). Coronaphobia levels (Covid-19 Phobia Scale, C19P-S), barriers to physical activity (Physical Activity Barriers Questionnaire, PABQ), quality of life levels (Nottingham Health Profile, NHP) were evaluated. Results: C19P-S total and "Psychological" and "Social" sub-dimension mean scores, PABQ total and "Personal" sub-dimension mean scores were higher in the student group compared to the other groups (p<0.001). The mean score of the C19P-S “Economic” sub-dimension was higher in the private sector/self-employed group (p<0.001). The PABQ “Social” sub-dimension score was found to be higher in healthcare workers (p<0.05). Conclusion: The results of this study support that barrier to physical activity in health workers may be caused by social factors and the coronaphobia of individuals in the private sector/self-employed group may be mostly caused by economic reasons. This study suggests that the lifestyle of different occupational groups may be affected from different aspects of the pandemic. In future studies, an individual exercise tracking system can be created for all occupational groups.
