The Development of Compliance Behavioral Imperatives in Public for Management of Covid-19

The Covid-19 pandemic, which was declared a public health emergency on 30 January 2020, has made it crucial for humans to learn how to behave to control the pandemic's spread. Policymakers must assess human behaviour and their responses to pandemic breakouts to develop a strategy for limiting pandemics and their harm to society at large. The present study applying exploratory factor analysis assessed five aspects of human behaviour regarding Covid-19, namely compliance behaviour, avoidance behaviour, protective behaviour, informed behaviour, and risk perception. The study applying hierarchical regression discovered that by combining informed, protective, and avoidance behaviour, people can be convinced to embrace the compliance behaviour required by public authorities. Furthermore, higher risk perception also positively moderates the relationship between information and compliance behaviour.
