Researcher teams around the globe including the "Project Lightspeed" are intensively working on vaccines to fight the Covid-19 pandemic. However, the availability of effective vaccines does not guarantee the vaccination willingness among the population. In spring 2021, we investigated the vaccination willingness and its potential predictors in representative online samples in nine countries (China, France, Germany, Poland, Russia, Spain, Sweden, U.K., U.S.). Of the 9,264 participants, 79.9% revealed Covid-19 vaccination willingness. The highest willingness was in the U.K., followed by Spain and China, the lowest in Russia. In most countries, the perception of governmental Covid-19 measures as useful and the use of television reports as Covid-19 information source positively predicted the willingness. Further factors such as demographic variables, mental and physical health status, evaluation of governmental communication, social media use, and general adherence to Covid-19 measures showed a country-specific predictive pattern. Recommendations how to increase the vaccination willingness are provided.
包括“光速项目”在内的全球研究团队正在加紧研制疫苗以对抗新冠疫情。然而，有效疫苗的可及性并不能保证民众的接种意愿。2021 年春季，我们在中国、法国、德国、波兰、俄罗斯、西班牙、瑞典、英国和美国九个国家的代表性在线样本中调查了疫苗接种意愿及其潜在预测因素。在 9264 名参与者中，79.9%的人表示愿意接种新冠疫苗。接种意愿最高的是英国，其次是西班牙和中国，最低的是俄罗斯。在大多数国家，民众对政府新冠措施的有用性的看法以及使用电视报道作为新冠信息来源，正向预测了接种意愿。进一步的因素，如人口统计学变量、心理和身体健康状况、对政府沟通的评价、社交媒体的使用以及对新冠措施的普遍遵守，表现出了特定于国家的预测模式。我们提供了增加疫苗接种意愿的建议。
