这份简短的报告记录了一项调查的结果，该调查衡量了日本公众和医生对COVID-19预防行为的有效性。医生（n = 117）和公众（n = 1086）参与了我们的在线调查。平均分分析结果显示，两组学生的知觉效能只有轻微差异，但分布差异显著。Silverman检验的结果表明，医生的反应是单峰的，而公众的反应是多峰的。研究结果的影响，以打击感染的风险进行了讨论。
This brief report documents the results of a survey that measured the public's and doctors' perceived effectiveness of preventive behaviors against COVID-19, in Japan. Medical doctors (n = 117) and the general public (n = 1086) participated in our online survey. The results of the analysis of mean scores indicate that there were only slight differences in perceived effectiveness between the two groups, while the differences in distributions were remarkable. The results of Silverman's test suggest the unimodality of doctors' responses and multimodality of the public's responses. Implications of the findings to combat the risk of infection are discussed.
