Confirmation bias and vaccine-related beliefs in the time of COVID-19, 2022.11.19,
https://academic.oup.com/jpubhealth/advance-article/doi/10.1093/pubmed/fdac128/6833492 .
People made systematic errors (P < 0.01) when evaluating evidence that was inconsistent with their prior beliefs. This pattern emerged among people with both pro-vaccination and anti-vaccination attitudes. Errors were attributed to confirmation bias because no such differences were detected when participants evaluated data unrelated to vaccines.

Burden of mental distress in the US associated with trust in media for COVID-19 information, 2022.11.21,
https://academic.oup.com/heapro/article/37/6/daac162/6835391?searchresult=1 .
No significant associations were found between mental distress and trust in broadcast or cable TV for accessing news about COVID-19. Trust in different news outlets may be associated with mental distress during public health emergencies like the COVID-19 pandemic. Future studies should explore mechanisms behind these associations, including adherence to best practices for crisis reporting among different media sources and exposure of individuals to misinformation.

Determinants of self-reported adherence to COVID-19 regulations in Spain: social norms, trust and risk perception, 2022.10.27,
https://academic.oup.com/heapro/article/37/6/daac138/6775364 .
Failure of individuals to voluntarily observe regulations and recommendations around mitigating COVID-19 is often cited as a reason why some countries struggled to curtail the spread of the virus. A large, representative survey revealed that several factors were positively associated with willingness to comply to COVID-19 regulations and recommendations. Results point to the importance of influencing social norms as the primary way to improve adherence to the health regulations of COVID-19; more important than intrapsychic considerations such as efficacy and risk.

The findings of this study highlight that hesitancy was linked to personal belief systems, vaccine mistrust and public perceptions. In contrast, vaccine acceptance was linked to knowledge and awareness about the vaccine and trusted sources of information.
