Summary

How the life style changed multidimensionally with home isolation in the period of COVID-19 is a new research question. Physical and social isolation, home isolation, and quarantine policies applied during epidemic periods such as SARS, MERS, Ebola have been associated with lifestyle changes (Lippi, 2019). Much of the research on the health impact of epidemics and isolation has focused on psychological issues such as stress-related symptoms and disorders and to a lesser extent social support and stress management. In contrast, the epidemic and its associated lifestyle issues during quarantine and isolation, including the impact of dietary changes, restricted physical activity, and increased indoor and screen time, are still not investigated. A limited number of studies have examined lifestyle changes during COVID-19 and previous epidemic periods. However, there is no Turkish survey that comprehensively deals with the lifestyle, the scope of which is expanding, today. The Brief Multidimensional Lifestyle Assessment Scale, which we planned to validate in our study, is a scale developed by Balanzá-Martínez et al to multi-dimensionally evaluate the lifestyle changes that occurred during the COVID-19 outbreak. It consists of 7 parts (Diet and Nutrition, Substance addiction, Physical activity, Stress management, Restorative sleep, Social support and Environmental exposure) and a total of 27 items. There are response options measured using a 4-point Likert scale. High scores indicate a healthy lifestyle (Balanzá-Martínez, 2021). In this context, we think that adapting the Short Multidimensional Lifestyle Assessment Scale / Short Multidimensional Inventory Lifestyle Evaluation - Confinement (SMILE-C) questionnaire into Turkish will make a significant contribution to the literature.
