Research on the effects of COVID-19 has shown that a favorable attitude toward the COVID-19 vaccine would help reduce the pandemic's sequelae and avoid lethal variants.
A theoretical model was tested through the strategy of path analysis and structural equation modeling, seeking to evaluate the direct effect of neuroticism and the indirect effects of risk-avoidance and rule-following behaviors, mediated by attitudes toward science.
A total of 459 adults, mostly women (61%), mean age 28.51 ( = 10.36), living in Lima (Peru), participated. The scales of neuroticism, risk avoidance behavior (RAB), norm following (NF), attitudes toward science, and attitudes toward vaccination were administered.
The path analysis explained 36% of the variance in vaccine attitude, whereas the latent structural regression model achieved a 54% explanation; according to this model attitude toward science (=.70, < .01) and neuroticism (=-.16, < .01) are significant predictors of vaccine attitude. Likewise, risk avoidance behavior and rule-following have indirect effects on attitudes toward vaccination.
Low neuroticism and a positive attitude toward the science that mediates the effects of RAB and NF directly condition the possibility of vaccination against COVID-19 in the adult population.
关于新冠疫情影响的研究表明，对新冠疫苗持积极态度有助于减少疫情后遗症并避免致命变体出现。
通过路径分析和结构方程模型策略对一个理论模型进行检验，旨在评估神经质的直接影响以及由对科学的态度介导的风险规避和遵循规则行为的间接影响。
共有459名成年人参与，其中大多数为女性（61%），平均年龄28.51岁（标准差 = 10.36），居住在秘鲁利马。采用了神经质、风险规避行为（RAB）、规范遵循（NF）、对科学的态度以及对疫苗接种的态度等量表。
路径分析解释了疫苗态度中36%的方差变异，而潜在结构回归模型的解释率达到了54%；根据该模型，对科学的态度（β =.70，p <.01）和神经质（β = -.16，p <.01）是疫苗态度的显著预测因素。同样，风险规避行为和遵循规则对疫苗接种态度有间接影响。
低神经质以及对介导RAB和NF影响的科学持积极态度直接决定了成年人群接种新冠疫苗的可能性。
