This cross-sectional and analytical study was conducted online between February and May 2022 at the end of the fourth wave of the COVID-19 pandemic. The study was conducted with 341 woman academics from state and foundation universities in T & uuml;rkiye. The mean score from the Beck Hopelessness Scale was 6.02 +/- 4.84, and the mean score from the Flourishing Scale (FS) was 43.50 +/- 7.24. There was a significant negative correlation between flourishing scores and low, mild, moderate, and high hopelessness scores (p = .038, p < .001, p = .001, p = .034, respectively); as participants' level of hopelessness increases, their FS scores decrease significantly (r: -.689, p < .001). Revealing the effects of changes in the routine and academic activities of woman academics on hopelessness and well-being during the COVID-19 pandemic process has the potential to reduce possible risks that may develop in pandemics, and contribute to reducing the hopelessness levels and increasing well-being of woman academics.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessCovid-19 PandemicWoman AcademiciansHopelessnessWell-BeingArticle10.1080/19338244.2025.24551032-s2.0-85216588673
