摘要:This study was planned and carried out to investigate the activities affecting the conflict and cohesion situation that could occur in the relations of household members with the effect of the Covid-19 pandemic, which affects the whole world. Considering the importance of Covid-19 in the literature, which does not have much information about it, the data on the conflict and cohesion status of household members; It is considered important to give valid suggestions to individuals, society and state authorities and to establish long-term policies. Before starting the study, the approval of the ethics committee numbered 35853172-200 was obtained at the meeting of Hacettepe University Ethcis Committee on June 23,2020. The Covid-19 Household Environment Scale (CHES) developed by Chaves and Gattamorta (2020) was used to determine the effect of Covid-19 in the household environment. CHES consists of 2 parts. In the first part, there are questions to determine the demographic characteristics of the participants, the composition of the household (information about the household) and at the household level, there are questions to identify problems encountered in health and work life during the Covid-19 pandemic period. In the second part, there are various activities that determine conflict and cohesion level during the Covid-19 pandemic period and before. The Cronbach's alpha internal consistency coefficient of the two-dimensional scale is 1st dimension α = .894, 2nd dimension α = .916. 372 household members from different provinces (46 provinces) of Turkey participated in the study. The mean levels of conflict status of household individuals (39.55±16.50) and the mean levels of cohesion (42.22±17.22) indicate that both conflict and cohesion increased slightly above the average level compared to before the pandemic. However, when looking at the difference in scores between household dimensions, it was seen that the cohesion status in the household during Covid-19 pandemic was higher than the conflict situation. While there was a significant difference between the age groups of participants, marital status, child status at home, the total number of people living at home, the status of one of the household members having Covid-19 symptoms, duration of household members maintaining social distance and their conflict scores, only a significant difference was found in the participants’ perceived level of income and their cohesion scores.
