Abstract:Objective To investigate the cognition and behavior of primary and middle school students in Chongming District of Shanghai during the normalized prevention and control of COVID-19, and analyze its influencing factors. Methods Multistage stratified cluster sampling method was used to randomly select 5 primary schools, 3 junior middle schools, 2 senior high schools, and 1 vocational school between September and October in 2020. From grade 4 to grade 12, at least 80 students were selected from each grade with a whole class as a unit. A total of 1 816 students finished the questionnaire survey of knowledge and behavior of COVID-19. Binary Logistic regression was applied to analyze influencing factors. Results Among the students, 81.00% (1 433/1 769) understood the etiology of COVID-19. They had high executive power in following epidemic prevention and control behaviors such as reducing going out, wearing masks, and cleaning hands. The main ways to acquire knowledge about COVID-19 were school lectures or subject teaching. Binary Logistic regression analysis showed that onlineteaching(OR=3.16), COVID-19 knowledge in class(OR=1.79), and age(OR=1.13)promoted the knowledge of COVID-19 amongprimary and middle school students(P<0.05). Lower age(OR=0.81), female(OR=1.25), and advise from doctors(OR=1.41)werethe promoting factors of hand hygiene and other protective behaviors(P<0.05). Conclusion Most students have a comprehensive knowledge of COVID-19 and can take effective epidemic prevention and control behaviors. For students of different school ages, multiple ways and forms of publicity are adopted to carry out health education, focus on diet, nutrition, physical exercise, and mental health, and guide students to form an active healthy life concept and develop good living habits.
