Abstract

The purpose of this study is to examine the predictive role of intolerance to uncertainty on COVID-19 fear among university students. The study group consists of a total of 426 university students, 324 women (76.1%) 102 men (23.9%). The mean age of the participants is 21.23 (standard deviation = 2.99). This research was conducted with the relational scanning model, one of the quantitative research methods. The data of the study were collected using the Fear of COVID-19 Scale, Intolerance to Uncertainty Scale, and the Personal Information Form. Pearson's correlation and multiple linear regression analysis were used to analyze the data.According to the study findings, intolerance to uncertainty positively and significantly predicts the fear of COVID-19. Results are discussed and recommendations are presented.

Özet

Bu araştırmanın amacı, üniversite öğrencilerinde belirsizliğe tahammülsüzlüğün COVID-19 korkusunu yordayıcı rolünü incelemektir. Çalışma grubu, 324 kadın (%76.1) 102 erkek (%23.9) olmak üzere toplam 426 üniversite öğrencisinden oluşmaktadır. Katılımcıların yaş ortalaması 21.23’tür (standart sapma = 2.99). Bu araştırma nicel araştırma yöntemlerinden ilişkisel tarama modeli ile yürütülmüştür. Araştırmanın verileri COVID-19 Korkusu Ölçeği, Belirsizliğe Tahammülsüzlük Ölçeği ve Kişisel Bilgi Formu ile toplanmıştır. Verilerin analizinde Pearson korelasyon ve çoklu doğrusal regresyon analizleri kullanılmıştır. Araştırma bulgularına göre ileriye yönelik kaygı ve engelleyici kaygı, COVID-19 korkusunu anlamlı ve pozitif yönde yordamaktadır. Sonuçlar tartışılmış ve öneriler sunulmuştur.
