This study was carried out to determine the effect of high school students' perception of risk of COVID-19, wearing masks and social distance behavior on stress during the COVID-19 pandemic.
This descriptive study was performed on 1034 participants between the ages of 15 and 18 between June 21 and July 2, 2021. "Descriptive Questionnaire," "COVID-19 Risk Perception Form," "Mask Wear Behavior Form," "Social Distance Behavior Form," and "Perceived Stress Scale" were used in data collection.
It was determined that 81.4% of the students used disposable medical masks, and 50.6% of them used the mask they wore for one day. In the characteristics of the risk perception of COVID-19, 31% have a risk perception, 45% are afraid to contact people returning from abroad, 58.8% avoid going to crowded places, 66.8% are afraid of contacting people with flu symptoms. It was found that they always kept sufficient distance while communicating with others. As a result of the multiple regression, it was determined that gender, mask type, mask usage frequency, risk perception, social distance behavior, and mask-wearing behavior had a statistically significant effect on the perceived stress level (p < 0.05).
These results provide theoretical inferences for public health policies targeting the high school students to develop accurate risk perception and protective behaviors.
本研究旨在确定高中生对新冠病毒疾病（COVID-19）风险的认知、佩戴口罩和保持社交距离行为对COVID-19大流行期间压力的影响。
本描述性研究于2021年6月21日至7月2日对1034名年龄在15至18岁之间的参与者进行。数据收集使用了“描述性问卷”“COVID-19风险认知表”“口罩佩戴行为表”“社交距离行为表”和“感知压力量表”。
确定81.4%的学生使用一次性医用口罩，其中50.6%的学生使用佩戴一天的口罩。在COVID-19风险认知特征方面，31%的学生有风险认知，45%的学生害怕接触从国外回来的人，58.8%的学生避免去拥挤的地方，66.8%的学生害怕接触有流感症状的人。发现他们在与他人交流时始终保持足够的距离。多元回归结果显示，性别、口罩类型、口罩使用频率、风险认知、社交距离行为和佩戴口罩行为对感知压力水平有统计学显著影响（p < 0.05）。
这些结果为针对高中生制定准确风险认知和保护行为的公共卫生政策提供了理论推断。
