Abstract
- The coronavirus pneumonia 2019 epidemic has had a huge impact on the population, and medical students are no exception. The purpose of this study was to explore the correlation between the risk perception, adaptation, confidence, and risk response behavior of medical postgraduates. A cross-sectional survey on medical postgraduates was conducted in a medical school in China. A total of 712 students were investigated. Basic information and individual scores, including risk perception, adaptability, confidence, and risk response behavior, were collected. There was a significant positive correlation between risk perception and adaptability, confidence, and risk response behavior (P < 0.01). Not only did risk perception have a direct positive predictive effect on adaptability, but also affected adaptability through three indirect pathways. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
