Although the COVID-19 pandemic has been officially declared over, the global community must remain prepared for future outbreaks. In this regard, understanding the factors associated with willingness to get vaccinated among healthcare workers - given their critical role in infection control - remains essential. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the factors associated with nursing personnel's intention to get vaccinated against COVID-19. Using an online questionnaire survey from April to June 2022, 492 nurses (mean age = 34.4 years, SD = 13.4; 96.7% females) from different settings (including inpatient, outpatient, and ambulatory clinics) participated in the present study. With the use of SmartPLS 4.0, the Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) results showed that intention to get vaccinated was negatively associated with fear of COVID-19 (standardized coefficient = -0.149; < .01) and vaccine hesitancy (standardized coefficient = -0.168; < .01) but positively associated with informational support (standardized coefficient = 0.416; < .01). Those with a higher intention to get vaccinated were positively associated with higher levels of no regrets regarding having received the vaccination (standardized coefficient = 0.544; < .01). Moreover, fear, informational support, and vaccine hesitancy together explained 28.5% of the variance in intention to get vaccinated. In turn, the intention to get vaccinated explained 30.1% of the variance in the feeling of no regrets regarding having received the vaccination. Based on the results, addressing fear of COVID-19 through educational interventions, strengthening support systems, and promoting positive vaccination intentions may collectively improve vaccination rates among healthcare workers.
尽管新冠疫情已正式宣告结束,但国际社会仍须为未来的疫情爆发做好准备。在这方面,鉴于医护人员在感染控制中发挥的关键作用,了解与他们接种疫苗意愿相关的因素仍然至关重要。因此,本研究旨在调查与护理人员接种新冠疫苗意愿相关的因素。通过2022年4月至6月的在线问卷调查,来自不同科室(包括住院部、门诊部和门诊诊所)的492名护士(平均年龄 = 34.4岁,标准差 = 13.4;96.7%为女性)参与了本研究。使用SmartPLS 4.0软件,偏最小二乘结构方程模型(PLS-SEM)结果显示,接种意愿与对新冠的恐惧(标准化系数 = -0.149;<0.01)和疫苗犹豫(标准化系数 = -0.168;<0.01)呈负相关,但与信息支持(标准化系数 = 0.416;<0.01)呈正相关。接种意愿较高的人,对接种疫苗不后悔的程度也较高(标准化系数 = 0.544;<0.01)。此外,恐惧、信息支持和疫苗犹豫共同解释了接种意愿差异的28.5%。反过来,接种意愿解释了对接种疫苗不后悔感受差异的30.1%。基于这些结果,通过教育干预消除对新冠的恐惧、加强支持系统并促进积极的接种意愿,可能共同提高医护人员的疫苗接种率。
