The COVID-19 pandemic presents a unique opportunity to explore the relationships between the behavioral immune system (BIS), Political Ideology, and disease avoidant attitudes (e.g., attitudes toward vaccination and attitudes about COVID-19). The BIS (e.g., disgust) is believed to be the first line of defense against pathogens and has been linked to socially conservative values. Ironically, however, the BIS has also been associated with anti-vaccination attitudes. In the current study, American participants ( = 139) completed an online survey with self-report measures of the BIS (e.g., disgust sensitivity and perceived infectability), political ideology, COVID-19 attitudes, and anti-vaccination attitudes. Disgust sensitivity was positively correlated with anti-vaccination attitudes but not significantly correlated with attitudes toward COVID-19. Perceived infectability, however, was negatively correlated with anti-vaccination attitudes and positively correlated with anxiety and knowledge about COVID-19. Right-wing authoritarianism and support for Trump were negatively correlated with knowledge and anxiety about COVID-19 and positively correlated with anti-vaccination attitudes.
新冠疫情提供了一个独特的机会，来探究行为免疫系统（BIS）、政治意识形态和疾病规避态度（例如对疫苗接种的态度以及对新冠病毒的态度）之间的关系。行为免疫系统（例如厌恶情绪）被认为是抵御病原体的第一道防线，并且与社会保守价值观有关联。然而，具有讽刺意味的是，行为免疫系统也与反疫苗态度有关。在当前的研究中，139名美国参与者完成了一项在线调查，其中包括对行为免疫系统（例如厌恶敏感性和感知易感染性）、政治意识形态、对新冠病毒的态度以及反疫苗态度的自我报告测量。厌恶敏感性与反疫苗态度呈正相关，但与对新冠病毒的态度无显著相关性。然而，感知易感染性与反疫苗态度呈负相关，与对新冠病毒的焦虑和了解程度呈正相关。右翼威权主义以及对特朗普的支持与对新冠病毒的了解和焦虑呈负相关，与反疫苗态度呈正相关。
