Özet

Objective: COVID-19 has spread since the day it emerged and was declared as a global pandemic. Determining the psychological effects of this situation and the compliance with public health measures will be a guide both in the fight against the COVID-19 pandemic and possible epidemics in the future. This two-group, cross-sectional descriptive study aimed to determine compliance with public health measures against COVID-19 and to evaluate the levels of fear, depression, anxiety, and stress by analysing individuals who experienced and did not experience COVID-19.
