Description

While research has shown that individuals’ belief in a dangerous world can lead to disease prevention behaviours, the combined effects of this belief and the perception of the effectiveness of government’s messages in adopting disease prevention behaviours were not known previously. The COVID-19 pandemic has provided SMU Associate Professor Yeo Su Lin and her collaborators the opportunity to study the influence of the two constructs and the effectiveness in driving disease prevention behaviours.
