| Popis: | Objective. This study examined associations between socio-demographic characteristics and knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAP) related to COVID-19 among healthcare workers in Bangkok, Thailand. Materials and methods. A cross-sectional online survey was distributed among healthcare workers in Bangkok, Thailand from July - August 2021. Results. A total of 637 responses were received. Most participants were clinical workers (68.4%), and nearly half (47.3%) had been at risk of infection with COVID-19 (ever screening test). Binary logistic regression analysis found associations between high knowledge scores and the 26–35-year age group (OR=1.776-1.562, 95%CI 1.021–2.853), having a bachelor’s degree or higher (OR=1.672, 95%CI 1.058–2.644), and clinical workers (OR=1.784, 95CI% 1.188–2.678). The 36 year and above age group was associated with higher attitude scores (OR=2.406, 95%CI 1.567–3.695). Higher practice scores were associated with females (OR=1.913, 95%CI 1.057–3.464), and clinical workers (OR=1.903, 95CI% 1.170–3.095). Correlation analysis found a positive correlation between practice scores and knowledge (r=0.322, p |
