Abstract
Background and aim: The outbreak of COVID-19 has created a wave of anxiety and disappointment along with social changes, and physical activities have constructive social dimensions. The aim of this study was to determine the difference between active and inactive individuals to adapt to the new social norms at the period of the coronavirus outbreak.
Methods: Among men over the age of 25, employees in Isfahan's governmental organizations, a statistical sample of 387 people was identified according to Morgan's table, and an electronic demographic questionnaire, Beck Depression Inventory (BDI-13) and a 25-item social adjustment questionnaire (self-made questionnaire) were used and the employees in various organizations were asked to answer them.
Results: Data analysis using ANOVA showed that active individuals had higher social adjustment than inactive individuals at the time of the Corona outbreak (F = 9.18). Social adjustment was also statistically significant related to disappointment (r = -0.114).
Conclusion: Overall, social adjustment is associated with less disappointment and physical activity lead to higher levels of social adjustment.
