Objective: This aim is to examine the mediating role of life satisfaction and rotating vitality in the relationship between fear of COVID-19 and problematic internet use in adolescents. Method: The participants in Turkey to 532 adolescents (304 females, 228 males) are formed. In the study COVID-19 Fear Scale, Life Satisfaction Scale, Subjective Vitality Scale, and Problematic Internet Use Scale were used. Due to the COVID-19 outbreak, education was not held in schools, so data were collected online. For this, scales were sent to the participants through online data collection prepared via Google Forms. Results: Relationships between adolescents' fear of experiencing coronavirus and their life satisfaction, fitness, and problematic internet use were determined by Pearson correlation analysis. It is seen that the problematic internet use has a positive relationship with the fear of COVID-19, a negative relationship with life satisfaction and other vitality, and low follow-up. It is observed that there is a low level, negatively significant relationship between COVID-19 and life satisfaction and vitality. Regression analysis examined the mediating relationship between life satisfaction and age's fear of COVID-19 and internet use. The research was performed by Hayes (2009) to test the mediating effect. The process was carried out in the macro mirror. In this method, 5000 resampling method was chosen. Discussion: Their results mediate the relationship between life satisfaction and health fear of COVID-19 and problematic internet use.
