Abstract

The study explored the association between gender and fear of Covid-19 and compliance with its safety protocols among health and non-health university students. The study sought to ascertain whether fear of Covid-19 and adherence to its protective measures would vary between male and female students of healthcare and non-healthcare university students. Using a cross-sectional quantitative research design, a convenient sample of 1119 undergraduate students selected from two universities in the Volta Region of Ghana completed self-administered questionnaires. Descriptive statistics and Mann Whitney U-test were conducted using IBM Statistical Package for Social Sciences version 25 and R software. There was no significant difference p=0.14 in the fear of Covid-19 levels of male and female undergraduate students. However, there were significant differences in the adherence to Covid-19 safety measures between male and female students p=0.01. Lastly, fear of Covid-19 and adherence to its safety measures differed significantly between healthcare and non-healthcare students p=0.00. Among students, fear of Covid-19 was independent of gender. However, female students are better adherents of Covid-19 safety measures than males. Also, non-healthcare students are more likely to experience greater fear of Covid-19 and adhere to its safety measures than their healthcare counterparts.

性别和职业道路与大学生恐惧和遵守 Covid-19 协议的关联

摘要

该研究探讨了性别与对 Covid-19 的恐惧以及健康和非健康大学生遵守其安全协议之间的关系。该研究旨在确定对 Covid-19 的恐惧和对其保护措施的遵守是否会在医疗保健的男女学生和非医疗保健大学生之间有所不同。使用横断面定量研究设计,从加纳沃尔特地区的两所大学中选出的 1119 名本科生的便利样本完成了自我管理的问卷调查。使用 IBM Statistical Package for Social Sciences 版本 25 和 R 软件进行描述性统计和 Mann Whitney U检验。没有显着差异p=0.14在对男女本科生 Covid-19 级别的恐惧中。但是,男女学生在遵守 Covid-19 安全措施方面存在显着差异p=0.01. 最后,医疗保健和非医疗保健学生对 Covid-19 的恐惧和对其安全措施的遵守程度存在显着差异p=0.00.在学生中,对 Covid-19 的恐惧与性别无关。但是,女学生比男学生更能遵守 Covid-19 安全措施。此外,非医疗保健学生比医疗保健学生更有可能对 Covid-19 产生更大的恐惧并遵守其安全措施。
