dc.description.abstractThe aim of this study was to examine the effect of fear of coronavirus during pregnancy on the attitudes of pregnant women towards the COVID-19 vaccine and the factors affecting their attitudes towards it. This descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted online with 324 pregnant women. It was determined that there was a positive and significant relationship (r = .26, p = .000) between their positive attitude towards the COVID-19 vaccine sub-dimension and the fear of coronavirus; however, the negative attitude sub-dimension did not have a significant relationship with the fear of coronavirus (r = -.09, p = .099). The following were found to affect pregnant women's positive attitudes towards the COVID-19 vaccine: socio-economic level and the thought that their baby would be disabled due to COVID-19. They should be informed more by the health professionals in order to develop a positive vaccination attitude regarding COVID-19 vaccines.
