This study investigated preventive behaviors toward coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) and related factors in a Kurdish Iranian sample.
This online survey was conducted among the population aged 18 and above in Kermanshah Province, in western Iran, in April 2020. Samples were invited and recruited through social media. Data were collected using a questionnaire consisting of 4 sections (questions on demographic variables, risk perception, risk communication, and COVID-19 preventive behaviors) and analyzed using Stata ver. 8.
The Pearson correlation test showed that risk communication was significantly correlated with COVID-19 preventive behaviors (r=0.320, p<0.01). In the final model, where the explanatory power increased with the entry of the risk communication variable, the variables explained a total of 14% of variance in COVID-19 preventive behaviors. Sex (β=-0.482), risk perception (β=0.047), and risk communication (β=0.662) were significant determinants.
Risk communication and risk perception related to COVID-19, as well as being a woman, were determinants of COVID-19 preventive behaviors.
本研究调查了伊朗库尔德人群样本中针对2019冠状病毒病(COVID-19)的预防行为及相关因素。
2020年4月,在伊朗西部克尔曼沙阿省对18岁及以上人群开展了此项在线调查。通过社交媒体邀请并招募样本。使用包含4个部分(人口统计学变量、风险认知、风险沟通和COVID-19预防行为问题)的问卷收集数据,并使用Stata 8.0版本进行分析。
Pearson相关检验显示,风险沟通与COVID-19预防行为显著相关(r = 0.320,p < 0.01)。在最终模型中,随着风险沟通变量的纳入,解释力增强,这些变量共解释了COVID-19预防行为中14%的方差。性别(β = -0.482)、风险认知(β = 0.047)和风险沟通(β = 0.662)是显著的决定因素。
与COVID-19相关的风险沟通和风险认知以及女性身份是COVID-19预防行为的决定因素。
