Abstract:
Introduction: Of particular global concern is the coronavirus disease of ۲۰۱۹ (COVID-۱۹) outbreak. All Persian versions of COVID-۱۹ measures assess the intrapsychic aspects of it, and there is a crucial need to measure the intergroup aspects of this pandemic. Aim: The current study aims to validate the Persian version of COVID-۱۹ attitudes and behaviors in the Iranian sample. Method: The participants included ۲۵۰ people from all over Iran in cyberspace who were selected availability (۱۷۷ men and ۷۳ women). They voluntarily participated in the study by filling out questionnaires that were made available through Google Forms and then disseminated online. Results: The ACAB scale had satisfactory reliability and validity according to content, face, and construct validity tests except for the first subscale (social distancing adjustment). Consequently, confirmatory factor analysis supported the ACAB with ۱۲-item and three subscales. Therefore, three subscales remained, including self-prioritization, prosocial behaviors, and belief in conspiracies, and social distancing adjustment was eliminated because the factor loading values of its items were less than ۰.۴. Conclusion: Results indicated that the ACAB is a reliable and helpful tool in research, especially for governmental surveys to understand why people do not cooperate in vaccination or prosocial behaviors.
