Abstract

|
This study is a descriptive survey aiming to identify the predictors of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) prevention behaviors compliance among university students living in a dormitory. Data was collected from 153 university students living in the dormitory of one university in J Province. Using SPSS 24.0, the collected data were analyzed with descriptive statistics, t-test, pearson’s correlation, and multiple regression. The mean COVID-19 prevention behavior compliance score of the subjects was 4.38, and Health Literacy (β=.32, p<.001) and risk perception (β=.25, p=.001) were identified as the predictors of COVID-19 prevention behavior compliance. Thus, approaches targeting to improve Health Literacy regarding infectious diseases and increase awareness of the risks of infectious diseases need to be taken to promote COVID-19 prevention behavior among university students living in a dormitory.
