„Stavi masku i odmakni se" - istraživanje determinanti protektivnog ponašanja od bolesti COVID-19 u Hrvatskoj. (Czech)

"Put a Mask and Keep a Distance" - A Study of Determinants of Protective Behavior against COVID-19 Disease in the Republic of Croatia. (English)

In this paper we analyse determinants of protective behaviour, trust in institutions, risk perception of COVID-19 and sociodemographic characteristics. The study was conducted via computer-assisted telephone interviewing from August till October 2020 among a nationally representative sample of 1,212 respondents aged 18 and older in Croatia. The findings suggest that statistically significant determinants of protective behaviour are: age (the elderly), gender (women), presence of preschool children in the household (positive association), assessment of the risk of infection (greater perceived danger results in greater adherence), assessment of their own health (those with poorer health adhere more), experience of the COVID-19 disease (those with more immediate experience adhere more) and trust in the National Civil Protection Headquarters and scientists (greater trust results in greater adherence to measures). Just over half of the respondents estimate that SARS-CoV-2 infection is extremely dangerous compared to 17% of respondents who believe that the danger is small or none. Most respondents expressed trust in all five institutions and systems for which trust was measured - the greatest trust is in scientists, and lowest in the media. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

U ovome se radu analiziraju neke determinante protektivnog ponašanja, posebice povjerenje u institucije, percepcija rizika od COVID-a 19 i sociodemografska obilježja. Provedeno je telefonsko istraživanje na dvoetapno stratificiranom uzorku punoljetnih stanovnika RH u razdoblju od kraja kolovoza do početka listopada 2020. godine (N=1212). Nalazi ukazuju na to da su statistički značajne determinante pridržavanja protektivnih mjera: dob (stariji), spol ispitanika (žene), prisustvo djece predškolske dobi u kućanstvu (pozitivna povezanost), procjena opasnosti od zaraze (veća percipirana opasnost rezultira većim pridržavanjem mjera), procjena vlastitog zdravstvenog stanja (oni lošijeg zdravlja više se pridržavaju mjera), iskustvo obolijevanja od bolesti COVID-19 (oni s neposrednijim iskustvom više se pridržavaju mjera) te povjerenje u Nacionalni stožer civilne zaštite i povjerenje u znanstvenike (veće povjerenje rezultira većim pridržavanjem mjera). Nešto više od polovine ispitanika procjenjuje da je zaraza virusom SARS-CoV-2 iznimno opasna, u odnosu na 17 posto ispitanika koji drže da je opasnost mala ili nikakva. Većina ispitanika izrazila je povjerenje u svih pet institucija i sustava za koje je mjereno povjerenje - najveće je povjerenje u znanstvenike, a najmanje u medije. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
