不同年龄居民新冠肺炎风险感知与应对行为

Analysis of Public Risk Perception and Coping Behaviors of Residents at Different Ages Facing COVID-19

为加强新冠肺炎疫情防控管理的有效性,针对不同年龄的无感染居民,分析其疫情风险感知与应对行为差异。以广东省居民为例,通过问卷调查和数理统计方法,引入心理距离理论,比较分析不同年龄居民在风险感知与应对行为上的异同。结果表明:各个年龄段居民在信任距离、信息距离上具有明显一致性;18岁以下和45岁及以上居民感知的概率距离和情绪距离较远;不同年龄居民个人防疫行为表现比较一致;在居民对社会防疫行动认可度方面,情绪距离、利益距离与社会防疫行为有相关关系。因此,不同年龄居民在疫情风险感知与应对行为上确实存在差异,该结论可为完善脆弱群体疫情防控工作提供参考。

In order to strengthen the effectiveness of epidemic prevention and control,it takes the non-infected residents at different ages as research objects to analyze the difference of risk perception and coping behavior,which has important implications.By means of questionnaire survey and statistical analysis and based on psychological distance theory,the differences of risk perception and coping behaviors of the residents at different ages in Guangdong province were studied during the epidemic of COVID-19.The results show that:There is a clear consistency in the trust distance and information distance at all ages;in terms of possibility distance and emotion distance,the distance of residents aged over 45 years old and under 18 years old are relatively far;in terms of individual epidemic prevention behavior,the residents of different age are more consistent;in the correlation analysis of the residents′attitudes towards the behavior of social prevention,the emotion distance and benefit distance is mainly correlated with the behavior.So there are differences for risk perception and coping behaviors of the people of different ages,and the results provide reference for improving epidemic prevention and control of vulnerable groups.
