The Role of Positive and Negative Information Processing in COVID-19 Vaccine Uptake in Women of Generation X, Y and Z

The aim of the study was the exploration of the generational diversity among psychological predictors of COVID-19 vaccine uptake related to the role of positive and negative information processing related health behavior factors. Based on former literature findings, the COVID-19 vaccine uptake predictors were chosen from the health beliefs model (e.g. susceptibility, severity, benefits, barriers, cues to action), Covid-19 vaccine hesitancy (skepticism, risk perception, fear) and psychological flexibility (avoidance, acceptance, harnessing).
