个体防护行为在控制传染病传播中发挥着重要作用。本研究旨在探讨中国公民在新冠肺炎疫情中采取防护行为的现状及其影响因素。于2020年1月22日至2月14日,通过文娟星平台开展了一项在线横断面调查,测量了他们对新冠肺炎的相关知识、风险认知、负面情绪、对官方沟通的反应以及防护行为。共有3008人完成问卷调查,其中有效问卷2845份。平均而言,71%的受访者接受保护性行为。那些在知识测试中没有出错的人(AOR = 1.77,p < 0.001)认为疫情的严重性很高(AOR = 1.90,p < 0.001),有很高的负面情绪(AOR = 1.36,p = 0.005),报告健康状况良好(AOR = 1.94,p < 0.001),高度关注政府媒体(AOR = 4.16,p < 0.001)和信任政府媒体(AOR = 1.97,p < 0.001)的人在对潜在混杂因素的变化进行调整后,更有可能接受保护性行为。女性和老年人也更有可能接受保护性行为。不同地区、不同文化程度的儿童在采取保护行为上没有差异。大多数中国公民接受了保护性行为。更高水平的保护行为与更高的知识、感知的严重性、负面情绪以及对官方政府媒体的关注和信任有关。官方政府沟通是保护性行为的最大单一预测因素。网上版载有补充材料,可在10.1186/s12889-020-09892-y查阅。
Individual protective behaviors play an important role in the control of the spread of infectious diseases. This study aimed to investigate the adoption of protective behaviors by Chinese citizens amid the COVID-19 outbreak and its associated factors. An online cross-sectional survey was conducted from 22 January to 14 February 2020 through Wenjuanxing platform, measuring their knowledge, risk perception, negative emotion, response to official communication, and protective behaviors in relation to COVID-19. A total of 3008 people completed the questionnaire, of which 2845 were valid questionnaires. On average, 71% of respondents embraced protective behaviors. Those who made no error in the knowledge test (AOR = 1.77, p < 0.001) perceived the high severity of the epidemic (AOR = 1.90, p < 0.001), had high negative emotion (AOR = 1.36, p = 0.005), reported good health (AOR = 1.94, p < 0.001), paid high attention to the governmental media (AOR = 4.16, p < 0.001) and trusted the governmental media (AOR = 1.97, p < 0.001) were more likely to embrace protective behaviors after adjustments for variations in potential confounding factors. Women and older people were also more likely to embrace protective behaviors. No regional or educational differences were found in the adoption of protective behaviors. The majority of Chinese citizens embraced protective behaviors. Higher levels of protective behaviors are associated with higher knowledge, perceived severity, negative emotion, and attention to and trust in the official governmental media. Official governmental communication is the largest single predictor of protective behaviors. The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1186/s12889-020-09892-y.
