Clinical Trial Summary

There are studies on the impact of quarantine measures taken during the COVID-19 pandemic on individuals' social interactions and physical activities. We think that the adaptation of individuals who have had COVID-19 infection to return to social and physical activities after restrictions may affect participation in these activities. The aim of this study is to investigate the long-term impact of COVID-19 restrictions on physical activity and social interaction in young adults, depending on whether they have had a COVID-19 infection.

Description:

Corona Virus Disease-19 was declared as a pandemic on 11 March 2020 by the World Health Organization. The fact that the measures taken to prevent the spread of the pandemic bring about a global quarantine process affects people's social interactions and physical activity levels with each other. The aim of this study is to investigate the long-term impact of COVID-19 restrictions on physical activity and social interaction in young adults, depending on whether they have had a COVID-19 infection. Physical activity levels were assessed with the short form of the International Physical Activity Questionnaire-Short Form. Social interactions and social phobias are Social Interaction Anxiety Scale and Social Phobia Scale were evaluated.
