This study aimed to determine the relationship between the fear of COVID-19 and the depression, anxiety and stress in persons with disabilities.
In this cross-sectional study, the data were collected using an online survey from 178 persons with disabilities using the Personal Information Form, Depression Anxiety Stress Scales-21 (DASS-21) and the Fear of COVID-19 Scale (FCV-19S).
The mean age of the participants was 34.08 ± 11.8 years. The disability types that participants had were related to vision (47.2 %), hearing (25.8 %), mobility (24.7 %), cognitive (8.4 %), and chronic disease (10.1 %). It has been determined that 73.6 % of the participants stated that their access to healthcare services was restricted due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The mean DASS-21 was 10.24 ± 8.25 and the mean FCV-19S was 17.71 ± 5.05. A positive correlation was found between DASS-21 and FCV-19S.
The pandemic has created a need to provide appropriate interventions to improve the psychosocial health of persons with disabilities.
本研究旨在确定 COVID-19 恐惧与残疾者的抑郁、焦虑和压力之间的关系。
在这项横断面研究中，通过在线调查从 178 名残疾人士中收集了数据，使用个人信息表、抑郁焦虑压力量表-21（DASS-21）和 COVID-19 恐惧量表（FCV-19S）。
参与者的平均年龄为 34.08±11.8 岁。参与者的残疾类型与视力（47.2%）、听力（25.8%）、行动能力（24.7%）、认知（8.4%）和慢性疾病（10.1%）有关。研究发现，由于 COVID-19 大流行，73.6%的参与者表示他们的医疗服务获取受到限制。DASS-21 的平均得分为 10.24±8.25，FCV-19S 的平均得分为 17.71±5.05。DASS-21 和 FCV-19S 之间存在正相关关系。
大流行需要提供适当的干预措施，以改善残疾人士的心理健康。
