Following the outbreak of the global COVID-19 pandemic, governments around the world issued guidelines designed to prevent contagion. This longitudinal study explored variables associated with citizens' adherence to these guidelines. Questionnaires were administered to a panel of Israeli citizens three times: in June (Time 1, n = 896), July (Time 2, n = 712) and August (Time 3, n = 662) 2020. The relationships of perceived loss of resources (e.g. stable employment) at Time 1 with adherence to guidelines at Time 2 and Time 3 were moderated by assumptions about controllability: The relationships were stronger for people who believed that appropriate behavior would lead to positive outcomes and prevent negative outcomes. The results indicate that messages about the pandemic should be accompanied by encouraging messages regarding the ability to control.
在全球 COVID-19 大流行爆发后，各国政府发布了旨在预防传染的指南。本纵向研究探讨了与公民遵守这些指南相关的变量。2020 年，研究人员三次向以色列公民小组发放问卷：6 月（第 1 次时间点，n = 896）、7 月（第 2 次时间点，n = 712）和 8 月（第 3 次时间点，n = 662）。第 1 次时间点感知资源损失（如稳定就业）与第 2 次和第 3 次时间点遵守指南之间的关系受到可控制假设的调节：对于那些认为适当行为会带来积极结果并防止负面结果的人来说，这种关系更强。结果表明，关于大流行的信息应该伴随着关于控制能力的鼓励信息。
