Purpose This study was aimed at evaluating mental wellbeing and health perception in the general population during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19) pandemic and at highlighting the correlation between them and selected variables. Design and Methods This descriptive and cross‐sectional study was carried out in 374 individuals, who were remotely administered two scales (“Perception of Health Scale [PHS]” and “Warwick‐Edinburgh Mental Wellbeing Scale [WEMWBS]”) and a demographic and clinical questionnaire. Findings PHS mean score was 53.24 ± 7.69 and the total WEMWBS score was 52.95 ± 10.75. A positive statistically significant correlation was found between PHS and WEMWBS ( p < 0.05). Gender, marital status, and education levels conditioned mental well‐being in a statistically significant. Suffering from a chronic disorder, COVID‐19 symptoms, or having a family member affected by COVID‐19 infection influenced the health perception. Practical Implications Exposing the factors affecting the health and mental wellbeing perceptions of individuals, especially during the pandemic period, can guide policymakers.

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.

The aim of this study is to perform the Turkish adaptation study of the Health Protective Behavior Scale. Methods: This was a methodological study that was conducted between August 2020 and September 2020. The sample of the study consists of 384 individuals aged 18-59 living in the city center of Kayseri. In this study, "Descriptive Information Form" and "Health Protective Behavior Scale (HPBS)" were used as data collection tools. The reliability of the scale was evaluated by internal consistency, Pearson correlation, and test-retest reliability. The construct validity of the scale was tested by exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis. Results: According to the results of the explanatory factor analysis, 40.748% variance was explained in 4 dimensions in the scale. In the confirmatory factor analysis, a four-dimensional structure was found to fit well (X 2 /df=2.213 RMSEA=0.056). As a result of the reliability analysis of the scale, it was found that the internal consistency coefficient was α = .82 and the test-retest reliability was r = .81. Conclusion: It has been determined that HPBS is a valid and reliable measurement tool to determine health protective and development behaviors.
