Abstract
Background: In the Iranian society, with the spread of the news of the widespread spread of the corona virus and the gradual involvement of all the provinces of the country, the stage of denying the disease gradually turned into a serious fear. One of the concepts that is synonymous with damage and crisis is social resilience, which expresses the ability of a society to control the consequences of crisis and damage. In other words, resilience provides a possibility for the person and the society to absorb the effects of damage, therefore, this research was conducted with the aim of investigating the factors affecting the reduction of the consequences of Corona in Bandar Abbas city.
Materials and Methods: To properly cover the research problem, both quantitative and qualitative methods simultaneously. The study population included the residents of Bandar Abbas city, and a statistical sample of 384 people was determined through random stratification sampling and using the modified Cochran formula. The data collection tools were questionnaires to extract and compile information related to the subject, as well as two questionnaires to measure research variables. In the current research, a researcher-made questionnaire was used to measure the variable of social resilience, and a periodic questionnaire was used to measure the consequences of Corona. For analysis, SPSS version 21 software was used for descriptive and bivariate analysis and Lisrel8. 50 software for multivariate analysis.
Results: The results of this research showed that at the 99% confidence level, the spread of Corona has had social, economic, health, recreational welfare consequences in Bandar Abbas city. Also, social resilience and its four dimensions have a significant difference with the average score of the spectrum, which in the dimensions of ability to teach and learn, ability to adapt and the whole variable of social resilience, the average obtained is higher than the scale score. However, in the two dimensions of ability to face danger and the power of organization, the average score obtained has a significant and negative difference compared to the average score, and it can be said that the social resilience of the families of Bandar Abbas city is considered weak in these aspects.
Conclusion: The results of the research indicated the positive impact of the socio-economic base of families with the degree of resilience and the degree of influence of the negative consequences of Corona. To put it simply, a higher socio-economic base allows individuals and families to have more social resilience.
