According to the findings, it has been determined that being included in the social security system has a strong and significant positive effect on human psychology. It has also been understood that the development levels of countries and the development of social security rights are inversely proportional. Citizens of underdeveloped and developing countries are greatly affected by this situation. Our country’s social security system can be improved at an advanced level.

In conclusion, being included in the social security system includes the power to affect the psychological state of the person positively, along with its effect of improving life in cases where a person will need a regular income and care. Accordingly, it is offered to take stronger and permanent steps in the social security system in order to improve the level of welfare and mental state of our people.
