Summary/Abstract: In this study, it was aimed to examine the relationships between quality of life, marital life, hopelessness and burnout levels of parents of children with special needs who received education in a special rehabilitation center, and to examine these relationships in terms of demographic characteristics during the COVID19 epidemic. Demographic forms and scales were used in the study. These data, which were studied with the relational screening model, were obtained with the Demographic Information Form, Beck Hopelessness Scale, Marriage Life Scale, Short Version of Burnout Scale, and WHOQOL-BREF Quality of Life Scale. In our study, it is seen that there are significant relationships between Beck hopelessness scale, burnout scale, marital life scale and quality of life scale and sub-dimension scores. While the burnout and hopelessness scale scores of those with higher income status were lower than those with lower income, marital life scale, quality of life scale environmental and psychological health sub-dimension scores were found to be higher. While it was observed that the marital life and quality of life scores of the parents whose child nutrition process was affected during the COVID-19 process were lower, their hopelessness levels were higher.
