在428名大学员工中进行了一项关于流感疫苗接种的纵向问卷调查,探讨了担心、遗憾和感知风险在预防性健康决策中的作用。这项研究得出了三个主要发现。首先,预期的担心和遗憾的评级是更强的预测接种比感知风险和介导的风险对疫苗接种的影响。第二,预期的情绪水平与经历的情绪系统性地不同,例如接种疫苗的个体预期比他们实际经历的更多后悔和更少担心。第三,预期和经历的情绪对随后的疫苗接种决策有影响。那些在第一年没有接种疫苗但有高度担忧和遗憾的人可能会在第二年接种疫苗。
The role of worry, regret, and perceived risk in preventive health decisions was explored in a longitudinal questionnaire study on influenza vaccination among 428 university employees. The study yielded 3 main findings. First, ratings of anticipated worry and regret were stronger predictors of vaccination than perceived risk and mediated the effect of risk on vaccination. Second, the anticipated level of emotions differed systematically from experienced emotions, such that vaccinated individuals anticipated more regret and less worry than they actually experienced. Third, anticipated and experienced emotions had implications for subsequent vaccination decisions. Those who did not vaccinate in the 1st year but had high levels of worry and regret were likely to be vaccinated the following year.
