This research examined the underlying beliefs and psychological determinants of COVID-19 vaccination intention in order to inform effective health promotion efforts. We utilized the reasoned action framework in a mixed-methods, two-study approach. Study 1, an open-ended belief elicitation survey ( = 197), explored the underlying beliefs associated with intention to get vaccinated against COVID-19 once a vaccine becomes available. In a quantitative survey with a representative sample of U.S. adults, study 2 ( = 1656) tested the psychological determinants of intention to get vaccinated. Results revealed (1) the most common attitudinal, normative, and control beliefs about COVID-19 vaccination; (2) instrumental attitude as the strongest determinant of COVID-19 vaccination intention; and (3) 'achieving peace of mind' as an effective target for health promotion efforts. Further implications and directions are discussed.
本研究旨在探究 COVID-19 疫苗接种意愿的潜在信念和心理决定因素，以便为有效的健康促进工作提供信息。我们采用合理行动框架，采用混合方法、两研究的方法。研究 1 是一项开放式的信念挖掘调查（n=197），探讨了一旦疫苗可用，与接种 COVID-19 疫苗的意愿相关的潜在信念。在一项对美国成年人有代表性的样本的定量调查中，研究 2（n=1656）检验了接种疫苗意愿的心理决定因素。结果显示：（1）对 COVID-19 疫苗接种最常见的态度、规范和控制信念；（2）工具性态度是 COVID-19 疫苗接种意愿的最强决定因素；（3）“获得内心的平静”是健康促进工作的有效目标。进一步的影响和方向将在讨论中提出。
