2021年8月进行的一项全国调查（N= 1025）显示，美国人对COVID-19错误信息的信念与疫苗接受度呈负相关。重要的是，越多的参与者相信错误的信息，他们对没有接种疫苗的预期遗憾就越少。预期遗憾的减少与疫苗接种意愿和疫苗接受程度的降低有关。为了抵消错误信息的负面影响，这项研究揭示了一种研究不足的情绪在克服疫苗犹豫方面的潜力。
A national survey (N= 1025) conducted in August 2021 reveals that Americans’ belief in misinformation about COVID-19 was negatively associated with vaccine acceptance. Importantly, the more participants believe in misinformation, the less anticipated regret they experience for not getting vaccinated. Reduced anticipated regret is associated with lower levels of vaccination intention and vaccine acceptance. To counteract the negative impact of misinformation, this study reveals the potential of an under-researched emotion in overcoming vaccine hesitancy.
