Abstract

Purpose: It was aimed to compare the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic process on physically active and inactive women under general quarantine conditions. And second aim was to compare physical activity and general well-being in women who were employees and non-employees in a non-governmental organization.
Methods: A total of 286 women were included in the study. The research was conducted online via the Google Forms web survey platform. The demographic information of the participants and non-governmental organization volunteering were asked before the questionnaires. Individuals' physical activity levels were evaluated by International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ), stress level was assessed The Distress Thermometer index, anxiety levels were evaluated with Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 (GAD-7), quality of life was evaluated with the World Health Organization Quality of Life-Bref questionnaire (WHOQOL-Bref).
Results: It was found that physically inactive women had significantly higher anxiety and stress levels and lower quality of life (p<0.05). And women who were employees in a non-governmental organization had significantly higher physically activity level and lower anxiety and stress levels and better quality of life (p<0.05).
Conclusion: Physical activity has an intensely positive effect on anxiety, stress, and quality of life during Covid-19 pandemic under general quarantine conditions.
