Abstract
Objective: The COVID-19 pandemic imposed lifestyle changes. The aim of this study was to evaluate the health-promoting lifestyle habits of individuals who applied to a primary care center during the pandemic period.
Methods: This descriptive and cross-sectional study was conducted with the voluntary participation of 524 individuals. The data was collected through a research questionnaire form and the Health Promoting Lifestyle Scale (HPLS).
Results: Women accounted for 58.2% (n=305) of all participants, 45.2% of them (n=237) had chronic disease and 32.1% (n=168) were smoking. Mean age was 41.26±14.28 (min:18, max:75) years old. Among these participants, %53.2 had equal income to their expenses (n=279), 52.3% experienced sleep pattern changes (n=274), 35.7% had COVID-19 disease and 66.6% vaccinated for COVID-19. The mean HPLS score was 162.75±8.10 points. Interpersonal relationships, stress management and total HPLS scores were higher in women (p<0.05). Physical activity, nutrition, stress management, total scores were higher in those without chronic diseases. Health responsibility scores of those vaccinated by COVID-19 vaccine, was higher (p=0.04). Stress management scores were lower in those with decreased sleep duration during the pandemic (p=0.050).
Conclusion: This study revealed that the participants' HPLS scores were low. It is necessary to continuously develop and support healthy lifestyle behaviors in areas such as physical activity, nutrition, spiritual development, and health responsibility. In the pandemic period, while we better understood the importance of protecting health, studies that will contribute the development of healthy lifestyle behaviors should be accelerated.

Pandemi Döneminde Sağlığı Geliştirici Yaşam Alışkanlıklarının Değerlendirilmesi: Kesitsel Bir Çalışma
Abstract
Amaç: COVID-19 pandemisi bazı yaşam tarzı değişikliklerini zorunlu kıldı. Bu çalışmada, pandemi döneminde birinci basamak sağlık merkezine başvuran bireylerin sağlığı geliştirici yaşam tarzı alışkanlıklarının değerlendirilmesi amaçlandı.
Gereç ve Yöntem: Tanımlayıcı ve kesitsel tipteki bu araştırma 524 kişinin gönüllü katılımıyla gerçekleştirilmiştir. Veriler, sosyo-demografik özellikler anket formu ve Sağlığı Geliştirici Yaşam Tarzı Ölçeği aracılığıyla toplanmıştır.
Bulgular: Katılımcıların %58,2'sini (n=305) kadınlar oluşturuyordu, %45,2'sinin (n=237) kronik hastalığı vardı ve %32,1'i (n=168) sigara kullanıyordu. Ortalama yaş 41,26±14,28 olup, %53,2'sinin geliri giderlerine eşitti (n=279). Katılımcıların %52,3'ü pandemi döneminde uyku düzeninde değişiklik yaşadığını (n=274), %35,7'si COVID-19 hastalığı geçirdiğini ve %66,6'sı COVID-19 aşısı olduğunu belirtti. Sağlığı geliştirici yaşam tarzı ölçeğinden ortalama 162,75±8,10 puan alındı. Kişilerarası ilişkiler, stres yönetimi ve toplam puanlar kadınlarda daha yüksekti (p<0.05). Fiziksel aktivite, beslenme, stres yönetimi ve toplam puanlar kronik hastalığı olmayanlarda daha yüksekti. COVID-19 aşısı yaptıranların sağlık sorumluluğu alma puanları daha yüksekti (p=0.04). Pandemi sırasında uyku süresi azalmış olanlarda stres yönetimi skorları daha düşüktü (p=0,050).
Sonuç: Bu çalışma, katılımcıların sağlığı geliştirici yaşam tarzı ölçeği puanlarının düşük olduğunu ortaya koydu. Fiziksel aktivite, beslenme, ruhsal gelişim, sağlık sorumluluğu alma gibi alanlarda sağlıklı yaşam biçimi davranışlarının sürekli geliştirilmesi ve desteklenmesi gerekmektedir. Pandemi döneminde sağlığı korumanın önemi daha iyi anlaşılmışken sağlıklı yaşam biçimi davranışlarının geliştirilmesine katkı sağlayacak çalışmalara hız verilmelidir.
