Background: COVID-19 or coronavirus disease 2019 has rapidly affected all aspects of life around and becomes a major threat to public health around the world. One of the most important actions that need to be taken to stop the pandemic is vaccinations. Managing the COVID-19 pandemic in the long term, unwillingness to receive vaccinations and negative attitudes toward vaccines are major barriers. Objectives: This study aimed to investigate community knowledge, risk perceptions, and attitudes toward COVID-19 vaccinations among high school students in Chonburi, Thailand. Materials and Methods: The study was conducted using a questionnaire. A total of 303 students participated. COVID-19-related knowledge, risk perception, and attitude toward COVID-19 vaccines were assessed. Independent t-test and ANOVA were used to analyze differences between outcomes and sociodemographic. Attitudes toward vaccination were analyzed by a generalized linear model. Results: Students revealed a moderate level of COVID-19-related knowledge, correctly answering 7.09 (SD = 1.56) questions in a total of 10, a moderate level of risk perception of getting COVID-19, average score was 9.7 (SD = 3.03) of 12, and attitude toward vaccine against, the average scores at 3.02 (SD = 1.64), questions in a total of 21. Conclusion: This study revealed a moderate level of knowledge about COVID-19, risk perception, and attitude against COVID-19 vaccination among high school students at Princess Chulabhorn Science School, Chonburi, Thailand. Moreover, it reinforces that there is no relation between those factors and the attitude for accepting COVID-19 vaccines. However, the reasons behind the attitude against the COVID-19 vaccination were efficacy of vaccines. News about the side effects of the vaccines, such as chest pain, muscle pain, dizziness, fatigue, breathing problems, numbness, and facial tics, was widespread among people and brought more attitudes against COVID-19 vaccination. Considering precisely, increasing efficacy of the vaccine will lead to higher vaccine acceptance. Therefore, to control the pandemic in the long term, providing high vaccine efficacy will be one of the recommended solutions.
背景:2019年COVID-19或冠状病毒病已迅速影响到生活的各个方面,并成为全球公共卫生的主要威胁。为制止大流行需要采取的最重要行动之一是接种疫苗。长期管理COVID-19大流行、不愿接种疫苗和对疫苗的消极态度是主要障碍。目的:本研究旨在调查泰国春武里市高中生对COVID-19疫苗接种的社区知识、风险认知和态度。材料与方法:采用问卷调查法进行研究。共有303名学生参与。评估了COVID-19相关知识、风险认知和对COVID-19疫苗的态度。采用独立t检验和方差分析分析结果与社会人口学差异。用广义线性模型分析对疫苗接种的态度。结果:学生对新冠肺炎相关知识水平中等,正确回答了7.09道(SD = 1.56)题共10道;对感染新冠肺炎的风险感知水平中等,平均得分为9.7分(SD = 3.03) 12道;对疫苗接种的态度,平均得分为3.02分(SD = 1.64),平均得分为21道。结论:本研究显示,泰国春武里公主朱拉蓬科学学校的高中生对COVID-19的知识、风险认知和对COVID-19疫苗接种的态度处于中等水平。这些因素与接受新冠病毒疫苗的态度无关。然而,反对新冠疫苗接种的原因是疫苗的有效性。关于疫苗副作用的新闻,如胸痛、肌肉痛、头晕、疲劳、呼吸问题、麻木和面部抽搐,在人们中广泛传播,并带来了更多反对COVID-19疫苗接种的态度。准确地考虑,提高疫苗的效力将导致更高的疫苗接受度。因此,为了长期控制大流行,提供高效力的疫苗将是建议的解决办法之一。

Background: Home environment shapes the eating behavior of children thus their weight status. Parental feeding practices (restriction, pressure to eat, and monitoring) are behaviors taken by parents to manage a child’s dietary intake. Objectives: Raising awareness on the role of parental feeding practices in childhood obesity to allow for early parental intervention. Materials and Methods: In this cross-sectional study, a sample size of 332 children (6–11 years old) was chosen conveniently form eight health centers in Bahrain in August–September 2018. A translated Arabic version of the Child Feeding Questionnaire (CFQ) was filled by parents. Anthropometric measurements of children were conducted. Descriptive statistics were used to describe mean item scores of the CFQ. Correlation tests determined relationships between parental feeding practices and body mass index (BMI)-for-age Z-scores. Chi-square statistics and independent sample t-tests compared parental perception of child weight and feeding practices. Results: The prevalence of obesity among Bahraini children aged 6–11 years was estimated to be 16.87% and overweight was 14.46%. Obesity was more prevalent among males, while overweight in females. The predominant feeding practice was monitoring followed by restriction. Child BMI was negatively correlated with pressure to eat and positively correlated with restriction in males. No significant correlation was found with monitoring. About 56.0% of parents were found to misperceive their child weight status, 50.9% underestimated the weight status. Conclusion: Childhood obesity has reached alarming levels, which may persist due to the parental misperception of child weight status. Avoiding restrictive feeding could limit this problem.
背景:家庭环境影响儿童的饮食行为,从而影响其体重状况。父母喂养行为(限制、强迫进食和监督)是父母管理孩子饮食摄入的行为。目的:提高对父母喂养方式在儿童肥胖中的作用的认识,以便父母早期干预。材料与方法:在这项横断面研究中,于2018年8月至9月在巴林的8个卫生中心方便地选择了332名儿童(6 - 11岁)。由家长填写了儿童喂养问卷的阿拉伯语翻译版本。对儿童进行了人体测量。采用描述性统计对CFQ的平均项目得分进行描述。相关测试确定了父母喂养方式与体重指数(BMI)年龄z分数之间的关系。卡方统计和独立样本t检验比较了父母对儿童体重的认知和喂养方法。结果:巴林6 - 11岁儿童肥胖患病率为16.87%,超重患病率为14.46%。肥胖在男性中更为普遍,而超重在女性中更为普遍。主要饲养方法为监测后限制饲养。儿童体重指数与饮食压力呈负相关,而与男性饮食限制呈正相关。与监测无显著相关性。56.0%的家长对孩子的体重状况存在误解,50.9%的家长对孩子的体重状况存在低估。结论:由于父母对儿童体重状况的错误认识,儿童肥胖已达到警戒水平。避免限制性喂养可以限制这个问题。

Background: The coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19) has rapidly emerged as a global pandemic that causes millions of deaths worldwide. It is transmitted from person to person by respiratory droplets and could cause fatigue, shortness of breath, and fever. Background: The objective of the study was to assess COVID-19 related knowledge, attitude, and preventive behavior among high school students in Bangkok, Thailand. Materials and Methods: The study was conducted using a cross sectional online survey among HarrowA's students Y 12A-13. A total of 148 students participated. COVID-19-related knowledge, attitudes toward COVID-19, and preventive behaviors were assessed. Differences between outcomes and socio-demographic were analyzed through independent t-test and the Analysis of variance. Preventive behaviors were analyzed by a generalized linear model. Results: The undergraduate students showed a low knowledge about COVID-19, a mean of 6.38 (standard deviation [SD] = 1.69) questions in a total of 11. However, the result showed a standard level of attitude toward preventive behaviors on COVID-19 with an average score of 47.51 from a score range of 14A-70 (SD = 4.45). Finally, preventive behaviors of participants were at a moderate level with an average score of 36.84 from a range from 12 to 60 (SD = 3.93). The data showed a statistically significant positive correlation between attitude toward preventive behavior on COVID-19 and COVID-19 preventive behavior (r = 0.351**, P = 0.01). From a generalized linear model, attitude toward preventive behavior on COVID-19 (Exp (B) = 0.394, Confidence interval [CI]: 0.212A-.485, P < 0.05) and Gender (Exp (B) = 0.203, 95%, CI: 0.376A-2.807, P < 0.05) can be a predictive factor for the preventive behavior of Harrow International school students. Conclusions: The results assessed that Harrow international students had a lower level of COVID-19 general knowledge, but moderate level of attitude and preventive behavior. Moreover, it indicates that there is a causal relationship between attitude toward COVID-19 and preventive behaviors. Thus, attitudes toward COVID-19 are a major predictive factor of having preventive behaviors. Therefore, school and parents should always build awareness and provide safety to the students and remind students with rules that should be followed to secure them from risking of COVID-19.
背景:冠状病毒病-19 (COVID-19)已迅速成为全球大流行,在全世界造成数百万人死亡。它通过呼吸道飞沫在人与人之间传播,可能导致疲劳、呼吸短促和发烧。背景:本研究的目的是评估泰国曼谷高中学生的COVID-19相关知识、态度和预防行为。材料与方法:本研究采用横断面在线调查的方式在哈罗瓦大学Y - 12A-13年级的学生中进行。共有148名学生参与。对新冠肺炎相关知识、态度和预防行为进行评估。通过独立t检验和方差分析分析结果与社会人口学的差异。采用广义线性模型分析预防行为。结果:大学生对新冠肺炎知识的了解程度较低,11题中平均6.38题(标准差[SD] = 1.69)。但对新冠肺炎预防行为的态度,在14a ~ 70分范围内平均得分为47.51分(SD = 4.45),属于标准水平。受试者的预防行为处于中等水平,平均得分为36.84分(SD = 3.93)。数据显示,新冠肺炎预防行为态度与新冠肺炎预防行为呈正相关(r = 0.351**, P = 0.01)。从广义线性模型看,居民对新冠肺炎预防行为的态度(Exp (B) = 0.394,置信区间[CI]: 0.212A-。485, P < 0.05)和性别(Exp (B) = 0.203, 95%, CI: 0.376A-2.807, P < 0.05)是哈罗国际学校学生预防行为的预测因素。结论:结果评估哈罗公学留学生对新冠肺炎的常识水平较低,但态度和预防行为水平中等。此外,这表明对COVID-19的态度与预防行为之间存在因果关系。因此,对COVID-19的态度是预防行为的主要预测因素。因此,学校和家长应该始终提高意识,为学生提供安全保障,并提醒学生应遵守的规则,以确保他们免受COVID-19的风险。

It is transmitted from person to person by respiratory droplets and could cause fatigue, shortness of breath, and fever. Background: The objective of the study was to assess COVID-19 related knowledge, attitude, and preventive behavior among high school students in Bangkok, Thailand. Materials and Methods: The study was conducted using a cross sectional online survey among HarrowA's students Y 12A-13. A total of 148 students participated. COVID-19-related knowledge, attitudes toward COVID-19, and preventive behaviors were assessed. Differences between outcomes and socio-demographic were analyzed through independent t-test and the Analysis of variance. Preventive behaviors were analyzed by a generalized linear model. Results: The undergraduate students showed a low knowledge about COVID-19, a mean of 6.38 (standard deviation [SD] = 1.69) questions in a total of 11. However, the result showed a standard level of attitude toward preventive behaviors on COVID-19 with an average score of 47.51 from a score range of 14A-70 (SD = 4.45). Finally, preventive behaviors of participants were at a moderate level with an average score of 36.84 from a range from 12 to 60 (SD = 3.93). The data showed a statistically significant positive correlation between attitude toward preventive behavior on COVID-19 and COVID-19 preventive behavior (r = 0.351**, P = 0.01). From a generalized linear model, attitude toward preventive behavior on COVID-19 (Exp (B) = 0.394, Confidence interval [CI]: 0.212A-.485, P < 0.05) and Gender (Exp (B) = 0.203, 95%, CI: 0.376A-2.807, P < 0.05) can be a predictive factor for the preventive behavior of Harrow International school students. Conclusions: The results assessed that Harrow international students had a lower level of COVID-19 general knowledge, but moderate level of attitude and preventive behavior. Moreover, it indicates that there is a causal relationship between attitude toward COVID-19 and preventive behaviors. Thus, attitudes toward COVID-19 are a major predictive factor of having preventive behaviors. Therefore, school and parents should always build awareness and provide safety to the students and remind students with rules that should be followed to secure them from risking of COVID-19.","PeriodicalId":14153,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Medical Science and Public Health","volume":"114 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"72909443","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
