Methods: In this descriptive and cross-sectional study, the data were collected using the socio-demographic characteristics form, Fear of COVID-19 Scale, Coronavirus Anxiety Scale-Short Form, and COVID-19 Awareness Scale between 29 November 2021 and 1 January 2022. The sample consisted of 344 nursing students. Results: The mean age of the students participating in the study was 20.49±1.78. It was determined that there was a significant difference between gender and the total score of Fear of COVID-19 Scale and the total score of COVID-19 Awareness Scale. Individuals having a nuclear family had significantly higher levels of fear of COVID-19 than those having an extended family. There was a positive and significant relationship between number of vaccinations, age, total score of the Coronavirus anxiety scale, total score of the COVID-19 awareness scale, total score of the hygiene subscale, total score of distance subscale, and total score of mask subscale. It was determined that there was a negative significant correlation between age and the total score of COVID-19 awareness scale and the total score of the Coronavirus anxiety scale. Conclusion: It was determined that women’s levels of fear of COVID-19 and coronavirus awareness levels were significantly higher compared to their male counterparts. The fear of COVID-19 increased as the number of vaccination, age. As the fear of COVID-19 increased, the level of COVID-19 awareness also increased.Springer Nature2025Articlehttps://rdlopen.rawdatalibrary.net/r/gumushane/11285https://doi.org/10.1007/s10389-023-02065-22198-1833enJournal of Public Health (Germany)info:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessinfo:eu-repo/semantics/articlehttps://gumushane-rdlopen.rawdatalibrary.net/tr/items/gumushane/11285
