How does age affect personal and social reactions to COVID-19: Results from the national Understanding America Study

Fri, 2020-11-13 17:28 — mike kraft
How does age affect personal and social reactions to COVID-19: Results from the national Understanding America Study The COVID-19 pandemic has had tremendous impact on Americans’ lives including their personal and social behaviors. While people of all ages are affected in some way by the pandemic, older persons have been far more likely to suffer the most severe health consequences. For this reason, how people have responded to mitigating behaviors to COVID-19 may differ by age. Using a nationally representative sample from the longitudinal data of the Understanding America Study (UAS), we examined differentials in behavioral responses to COVID-19 by age and how they changed over the first three months of the pandemic.
