This study has two main objectives. The first aim is to adapt the social distancing scale (SDS) into Turkish. The second aim is to test the mediating roles of depression, anxiety, and stress on the relationship between social distance and psychological resilience. The sampling method of the study was revised as the snowball sampling. The study surveyed 843 people (481 female and 362 male) between the ages of 18 and 70 (average age 31.95) living in 51 different cities if Turkey. In the study, back-translation method was used to prepare the SDS-Turkish version. Confirmatory factor analysis results for the study showed that the single-dimension structure fits very well, as in the original form. Cronbach’s alpha reliability coefficient for the scale was calculated as 0.70. In line with the second aim of the study, the data were tested using a structural equation model analysis. Research results showed that depression, anxiety, and stress have a full mediator role in the relationship between social distancing and resilience for Turkish residents. In other words, this study eliminates social distancing’s predictability of resilience by the insertion of the mediatory variable of depression, anxiety, and stress into the structural equation model.

本研究有两个主要目标。第一个目标是将社交距离量表 (SDS) 改编为土耳其语。第二个目的是测试抑郁、焦虑和压力在社交距离和心理弹性之间的关系中的中介作用。研究的抽样方法修改为滚雪球抽样。该研究调查了居住在土耳其 51 个不同城市的 18 至 70 岁（平均年龄 31.95 岁）的 843 人（481 名女性和 362 名男性）。在这项研究中，使用反向翻译方法来准备 SDS-Turkish 版本。该研究的验证性因子分析结果表明，与原始形式一样，单维结构非常适合。该量表的 Cronbach α 信度系数计算为 0.70。根据研究的第二个目标，使用结构方程模型分析测试数据。研究结果表明，抑郁、焦虑和压力在土耳其居民的社交距离和复原力之间的关系中具有充分的中介作用。换言之，本研究通过将抑郁、焦虑和压力的中介变量插入结构方程模型，消除了社会距离对复原力的可预测性。
