Analysis of Factors that Influence Compliance with Health Protocols in Preventing Covid-19 Transmission in School-Age Children

Abstract

The spread of COVID-19 in society could be accelerated by noncompliance with the application of health protocols. An attitude that arises in response to a rule that needs to be followed is called compliance. A number of factors, such as peer environment, motivation, and knowledge, affect adherence to health procedures. The purpose of this study is to identify the variables that affect school-age children's adherence to health precautions in order to stop the spread of COVID-19. This study employs a cross-sectional strategy and quantitative tools in an observational research design. Ninety-one kids in grades four, five, and six made up the study's population. The Accidental Sampling approach is used in the sample determination process. Questionnaires were used to gather data, and ordinal regression tests were used for bivariate analysis.
