ABSTRACT
AIMS:
The present study investigated the association between resilience, stigma, life satisfaction and the intention to receive a COVID-19 vaccination among Chinese HCWs. It also explored the mediating role of stigma and life satisfaction on the association between resilience and intention to receive a COVID-19 vaccination.DESIGN:
An anonymous cross-sectional survey.METHODS:
1733 HCWs from five hospitals in four provinces of mainland China completed a cross-sectional online survey in October and November 2020.RESULTS:
Among the HCWs, the rate of intention to receive a COVID-19 vaccination was 73.1%. Results from structural equation modelling showed that resilience was associated both directly, and indirectly with greater intent to receive a COVID-19 vaccination through two pathways first by increasing life satisfaction, and second by reducing stigma and increasing life satisfaction.CONCLUSION:
Promoting the resilience of HCWs has the potential to increase the COVID-19 vaccination uptake rate among HCWs in China. IMPACT This study tested the relationship between several psychological factors and the COVID-19 vaccination intention of HCWs in China, finding that resilience played a significant role in improving COVID-19 vaccination intention rates by reducing stigma and increasing life satisfaction.Keywords
