Sosyal İzolasyonun Anksiyete ve Yaşam Kalitesi Üzerine Etkisi

Amaç: Bu çalışmada, genel popülasyonda sosyal izolasyon koşullarının anksiyete ve yaşam kalitesi üzerindeki etkisinin araştırılması amaçlanmıştır. Yöntem: Bu kesitsel çalışmaya toplam 1384 katılımcı dahil edildi. Katılımcıların değerlendirilmesinde sosyodemografik form, Beck Anksiyete Ölçeği (BAÖ) ve Kısa Form-12'den (SF-12) oluşan çevrimiçi bir anket kullanıldı. Bulgular: Evli katılımcılar daha yüksek BAÖ puanlarına (p=0,007) ve SF-12 fiziksel komponent puanlarına (p<0,01) sahipken, zihinsel komponent bekarlarda daha yüksekti (p<0,01). Evcil hayvan sahipleri, evcil hayvan sahibi olmayanlara göre daha düşük BAI puanlarına (p=0,02) ve daha düşük SF-12 fiziksel bileşen puanlarına sahipti (p=0,005). Meslekten emekli olan katılımcıların BAÖ puanları daha yüksekti (p<0.001). BAÖ puanları ile yaş (r=-0,118; p<0,001) arasında negatif, VKİ (r= 0,089; p=0,007) ve çocuk sayısı (r=0,107; p=0,001) ile pozitif yönde ilişkili olduğu belirlendi. SF-12'nin fiziksel bileşeni ile yaş (r=-0,175; p<0,001), VKİ (r=-0,167; p<0,001) ve çocuk sayısı (r=-0,120; p<0,001) arasında negatif korelasyon saptandı. SF-12 zihinsel komponent puanları yaş (r=-0,135; p<0,001), VKİ (r-0,130; p<0,001), günlük ortalama ekran süresi (r-0,076; p=0,022) ve çocuk sayısı ile negatif korelasyon gösterdi. (r-0.120; p<0.001). Sonuç: Sosyal izolasyon, sağlığın çeşitli yönlerini önemli ölçüde etkiledi. Evli bireyler izolasyon koşullarında daha fazla anksiyete gösterdi. Kadın cinsiyet, evcil hayvan sahibi olma ve ekran başında geçirilen süre, daha düşük yaşam kalitesi puanları ile ilişkiliydi. Yaş, yüksek VKİ ve çocuk sayısı, fiziksel ve zihinsel sağlığı ve kaygı düzeyini etkiledi.

The Effect of Social Isolation on Anxiety and Quality of Life

Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the effect of social isolation conditions on anxiety and quality of life in the general population. Method: A total of 1384 participants were included in this cross-sectional study. An online questionnaire consisting of a sociodemographic form, the Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI), and the Short Form-12 (SF-12) was used for the evaluation of the participants. Results: Married participants had higher levels of BAI scores (p=0.007) and a higher SF-12 physical component score (p<0.01) while the mental component was higher in single individuals (p<0.01). Pet owners had lower BAI scores (p=0.02), and lower SF-12 physical component scores than non-pet owners (p=0.005). Participants who retired from their profession had higher BAI scores (p<0.001). The BAI scores were determined to be negatively correlated with age (r=-0.118; p<0.001) and positively correlated with BMI (r= 0.089; p=0.007) and number of children (r=0.107; p=0.001). A negative correlation was determined between the physical component of SF-12 and age (r=-0.175; p<0.001), BMI (r=-0.167; p<0.001), and number of children (r=-0.120; p<0.001). The SF-12 mental component scores were negatively correlated with age (r=-0.135; p<0.001), BMI (r-0.130; p<0.001), Daily Average Screen Time (r-0.076; p=0.022), and number of children (r-0.120; p<0.001). Conclusion: Social isolation considerably influenced various aspects of health. Married individuals showed more anxiety under isolation conditions. Female gender, having a pet, and screen time were correlated with lower QoL scores. Age, higher BMI, and number of children influenced physical and mental health and the level of anxiety.
