Abstract

The study was planned and administered as a descriptive study to determine how COVID-19 pandemic affected the lifestyle behaviors of individuals. The study was administered from 30 June to 30 September by including 615 adult individuals who had been exposed to the COVID-19 pandemic. Of the healthy lifestyle behaviors scale II, the total mean score was found to be 126.37 ± 18.58. The health responsibility ( p  = .032) and nutrition ( p  = .004) subscale mean scores of women were found to be significantly higher than men, while the spiritual development subscale mean scores of men ( p  = .047) were found to be significantly higher than that of women.
