Place and Time of Research The research will be carried out at Istanbul University-Cerrahpaşa, Cerrahpaşa Medical Faculty Hospital between February 2022 and September 2022.

| Ontological Well Being Scale | Ontological Well-Being (OWB) is a concept introduced by Şimşek (2009) as a new approach to the Subjective Well-Being (SWB) perspective that exists in the fields of history, philosophy and psychology. The Ontological Well-Being Scale (OWBS), developed by Şimşek (2009) in accordance with this perspective, yielded significant results in positive and negative mental health areas, and was found to be related to the concepts of internal motivation and psychological well-being. The scale, which is grouped as "Past", "Now" and "Future", includes a total of 24 question items. The scale has four sub-dimensions: "nothingness" (meaninglessness), "activation" (activity), "regret" (regret) and "hope" (hope). The scale filled out based on my self-evaluation method was evaluated on a five-point scale; Participants are expected to mark an answer between "I don't feel at all" (1 point) and "I feel very intensely" (5 points) for each question. | 8 Months |

| Beck Depression Scale | The Beck Depression Scale was developed by Beck in 1961 to measure the risk of depression, the level of depressive symptoms and the change in severity in adults. The Turkish validity and reliability study was carried out by Hisli in 1989. Beck Depression Inventory is a 21-item self-assessment scale. Each item is related to a behavioral feature related to depression and is scored between 0 and 3 according to the severity of depression. The total score of the scale ranges from 0 to 63. If the score is between 0 and 9, there is no depression, 10-16 points indicate mild, 17-24 points indicate moderate, and 25 and higher points indicate severe depressive symptoms. Hisli (1989) calculated the reliability coefficient of the scale as 0.80 with the item analysis method and as 0.74 with the split-test method. |
