“…Similarly, year-one students had 83% less likely good practice on the prevention and control measures compared to year-four students. This finding is similar to studies conducted in Debre Birhan University Undergraduate students [34], Indonesian Undergraduate Students [52].…”

“…In this study, the students who were living in urban residency had 3-times greater odds of good practice level towards COVID 19 prevention and control measures compared to those who were living in rural residency during the pandemic. This finding is similar to studies conducted in Debre Birhan University Undergraduate students [34], Indonesian Undergraduate Students [52], Sudan [38], Nepalese residents [53].…”

“…When the education level of students increases, their attitude towards the preventive measures will increase. This is supported by the studies conducted in Debre Birhan University Undergraduate students [34], and Indonesian Undergraduate Students [52]. Thus, students with degree level training could have a higher attitude towards the preventive measures of COVID 19 than students studying lower-level training.…”

Background: Ethiopia has taken unprecedented preventive measures like closure of higher education institutions to halt the spread of COVID-19. However, still, there is scarce information regarding the knowledge, attitude, and practice (KAP) of students towards COVID-19 pandemic. Thus, this study aimed to assess the KAP and associated factors of preventive measures against COVID 19 among students.Methods: A cross-sectional study design was conducted among 422 students. The sample was proportionally allocated into the randomly selected four colleges and the students were recruited using a systematic random sampling technique. Variables with p-value < 0.25 in the bivariate logistic regression analysis were entered into the multivariable logistic regression model.Results: this study involved 408 students with response rate of 96.6%. The level of good knowledge, positive attitude and good practice were 69.6%, 56.6% and 65% respectively. After adjusting for covariates; being in the late adolescent age group (16-20), living with > 5 family size, and being single were predictors of knowledge level. Besides, being single, learning Diploma (TVET) level trainings, and being year-two students were predictors of attitude levels. Similarly, urban residence, being regular students, and being year-one students were the independent predictors of practice level of students.Conclusions: The national and local governments should develop effective and inclusive prevention strategies to address students who are at home due to COVID-19 pandemic.

“…Prior studies on infectious disease epidemics showed that knowledge and awareness [9][10][11], risk perception [7,10,12], and e cacy belief [7] help motivate people to adopt preventive behaviors. Similarly, recent studies on COVID-19 found that knowledge [13][14][15][16], perceived controllability [14,17], optimistic beliefs [14,16], emotion [15], and risk perception [16] may all account for precautionary actions of the public. However, the relationship between knowledge, attitudes, and practices beyond understanding the prevalence of each has not been examined.…”

Background It is imperative for the public to routinely practice precautionary behaviors to contain transmission of COVID-19, as no vaccines and anti-viral treatments are available. This paper attempts to examine knowledge, attitudes, and practices related to COVID-19, and the relationship between them and identification of the vulnerable population.Methods The data collection took place over three days (June 26–29) through an online survey five months after the Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (KCDC) confirmed the first case in South Korea; 970 subjects were included in the analysis.Results The level of knowledge, attitude and practice were examined. Knowledge directly affected both attitude (e.g., perceived risk and efficacy belief) and practice (e.g., preventive measures and social distancing). Among the influencing factors, efficacy belief turns out to be the most effective and significant factor on practice and also mediated the relationship between knowledge and all three preventive behaviors (wearing facial masks, practicing hand hygiene, and avoiding crowded places). Knowledge level varied by sociodemographic characteristics. Females (β = 0.06, p < 0.05) and individuals with higher level of education (β = 0.06, p < 0.05) had higher knowledge.Conclusion To successfully increase precautionary behaviors among the public, public health officials and policy makers must promote knowledge and efficacy belief. Also, the consequent interventions and policies should be developed and implemented in a way they reduce, rather than reinforce, health disparities, by embracing vulnerable populations to COVID-19.

“…Some previous studies have analyzed the knowledge and attitudes of students from Indonesia [ 11 ], Pakistan [ 12 ], Egypt [ 13 ], Jordan [ 14 ], and Spain [ 15 ]. However, no articles have analyzed factors influencing COVID-19 preventive behavior among nursing students in China, and no study has found the association between electronic literacy and preventive behavior.…”

Background The pandemic of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has become a major public health challenge all over the world. People’s knowledge, attitudes, and preventive behaviors about diseases affect the degree of adherence to control measures. This study aimed to survey the affecting factors of COVID-19 prevention behavior among nursing students in China. Material/Methods Six-hundred thirteen nursing students in Anhui, China participated in an online survey from March 30 to April 5, 2020. The survey collected demographic information, electronic health (eHealth) literacy, COVID-19-related knowledge, attitudes, and prevention behavior data using descriptive analysis and multinomial logistic regression to analyze the data. Results The mean age of study participants was 20.88 years, of which 31.8% were male (n=613). Television (84.9%) and WeChat (79.6%) were the major sources of their information. Nursing students had good knowledge (14.68±2.83), had positive attitudes (4.03±0.59), had good practices (3.92±0.65), and had basic eHealth literacy (30.45±6.90). Nursing students with higher eHealth literacy (odds ratio [OR]=0.89, P <0.01), good knowledge (OR=0.89, P <0.01), and positive attitudes (OR=0.24, P <0.01) took more preventive behaviors. Students living in the countryside (OR=0.09, P <0.01) and of a young age (OR=1.51, P <0.05) seldom took preventive actions. Men, compared with women, were less likely to take preventive measures. (OR=1.44, P <0.05). Conclusions Good eHealth literacy, good knowledge, and a positive attitude were the most important variables that affected the prevention behavior against COVID-19. Targeted health education should be conducted for male students and students living in the countryside by providing reliable and effective online sources.
