 Bu çalışmanın amacı, Covid-19 tanılı bireylerin karantina sürecinde algıladıkları sosyal desteğin yalnızlığa etkisini belirlemektir. Kesitsel türdeki bu araştırmaya 231 Covid19 tanılı birey dâhil edildi. Araştırma beş aile sağlığı merkezinde Ocak-Şubat 2021 tarihleri arasında yürütüldü. Tanıtıcı Özellikler Formu, Çok Boyutlu Algılanan Sosyal Destek Ölçeği ÇBASDÖ ve UCLA-Yalnızlık Ölçeği UCLA-YÖ verilerin toplanmasında kullanıldı. Veriler online anket yöntemiyle toplandı. Bireylerin ÇBASD ve UCLA-YÖ toplam puan ortalamaları sırasıyla 55.5119.02, 46.7813.04 olarak bulundu. ÇBASD ölçeği ile UCLA-YÖ arasında negatif yönlü güçlü bir ilişki saptandı r-0.730; p0.05. Ayrıca, regresyon analizi sonucunda, algılanan sosyal desteğin yalnızlığı 53 oranında yordadığı belirlendi. Araştırmada bireylerin algıladıkları sosyal desteğin ve yalnızlıklarının orta düzey olduğu tespit edildi. Bireylerin algılanan sosyal destek düzeyinin artmasıyla yalnızlık düzeylerinin de azaldığı söylenebilir. Ayrıca, karantina sürecinde Covid-19 tanılı bireylerin algıladıkları sosyal destek yalnızlık düzeylerini etkileyebilir.
