Abstract

Governments are considering adopting various COVID-19 vaccine mandates to protect the most vulnerable groups from infection. We conducted a panel survey of 240 adults aged 65 years or older in April 2021 and April 2022 on their attitudes toward COVID-19 vaccine mandates for all adults, adults 65 and older, and health care workers. Results of a series of logistic regression models show that partisan self-identification is central in predicting attitudes of older adults toward these mandates. The findings of our study will be of relevance for decision-makers as they craft policies to protect the most vulnerable groups in society.

老年人对各种COVID-19疫苗授权态度的预测因素

各国政府正在考虑采用各种COVID-19疫苗授权，以保护最弱势群体免受感染。我们于2021年4月和2022年4月对240名65岁及以上的成年人进行了小组调查，了解他们对所有成年人、65岁及以上的成年人和医护人员接种COVID-19疫苗的态度。一系列逻辑回归模型的结果表明，党派自我认同是预测老年人对这些任务的态度的核心。我们的研究结果将对决策者在制定保护社会中最弱势群体的政策时具有重要意义。

期刊介绍： The Journal of Aging & Social Policy offers a platform for insightful contributions from an international and interdisciplinary group of policy analysts and scholars. It provides an in-depth examination and analysis of critical phenomena that impact aging and the development and implementation of programs for the elderly from a global perspective, with a broad scope that encompasses not only the United States but also regions including Europe, the Middle East, Australia, Latin America, Asia, and the Asia-Pacific rim. The journal regularly addresses a wide array of issues such as long-term services and supports, home- and community-based care, nursing-home care, assisted living, long-term care financing, financial security, employment and training, public and private pension coverage, housing, transportation, health care access, financing, and quality, family dynamics, and retirement. These topics are of significant importance to the field of aging and social policy, reflecting the journal's commitment to presenting a comprehensive view of the challenges and solutions related to aging populations around the world.
