What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Pandemic Fatigue

    Use Lockdown/Pandemic Fatigue Scale (LFS) measure pandemic fatigue. The scale with a total of 10 items measures pandemic fatigue. The range of total scores of the scale is 10-50. It shows that pandemic fatigue increases as total points of the scale increase.

    Measured: 6 weeks

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Resilience

    Use Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC) measure individual resilience. The scale with a total of 25 items measures resilience. The range of total scores of the scale is 0-100. It shows that resilience increases as total points of the scale increase.

    Measured: 6 weeks
