Research output: Conference PapersRGC 32 - Refereed conference paper (without host publication)peer-review

Abstract

This study examined how attribution of crisis responsibility affects intention to take Covid-19 vaccines, specifically how institutional trust and emotions may play in this process. Results showed that attribution of crisis responsibility had a negative influence on vaccination intent by lowering institutional trust and eliciting ethics-based emotions. Findings provide implications for risk communicators and policy makers to develop strategies to mitigate vaccine hesitancy.
