Objectives: The research was carried out to determine the relationship between the fear of COVID-19 experienced by adults and life satisfaction and the factors affecting it.

There was a negative, highly significant and moderate correlational relationship between fear of COVID-19 and life satisfaction level (r =-,372, p<.001). At the same time, fear of COVID-19 explained a significant portion (13.9%) of the variance in life satisfaction level (R2 =-13.9, F = 29.28, p <.001). Conclusion: In our study, it was determined that the fear of COVID-19 of the participants was above moderate and their life satisfaction was moderate; It has been found that the quality of life decreases as the fear of COVID-19 increases. © 2023, Dokuz Eylul University.
