As a result of the analysis, it was seen that the Coping with the Outbreak Scale was a valid and reliable measurement tool. When findings of the study were analyzed in terms of gender variable, the cognitive coping and transcendental coping sub-dimensions and Fear of Covid19 Scale scores of women were found to be significantly higher compared to men. In addition, it was observed that the participants with higher Covid-19 fear had higher cognitive, transcendental, and relational coping scores compared to the participants with low Covid-19 fear.
