Investigation with Structural Equation Model of the Relationship between Covid-19 Phobia and Secondary Traumatic Stress Level in 112 Emergency Service Personnel

Abstract

The impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on healthcare workers is increasing day by day. It should not be forgotten that health professionals working in risky groups will be psychologically affected much more. The aim of this cross-sectional study is determine the relationship between covid-19 phobia and secondary traumatic stress level in 112 emergency service personnel via a structural equation model(n=416).A 1-unit change that was occur in the total score of the trauma scale causes an increase of 0.68 units in the phobia scale total score (β=0.68;p
