(Institute for Contemporary Affairs-Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs) Dr. Irwin J. Mansdorf - We studied the consistency of compliance with Coronavirus guidelines on masking and social distancing with actual behavior among a large group of English-speaking Israelis over the age of 60, considered an "at-risk" group for Covid-19. We asked respondents how they follow the guidelines when it comes to their own adult children and grandchildren who do not live with them. Our results point to a stark contrast between what people say they believe and how they act regarding their own families. While there was near unanimity regarding the importance of wearing a mask and social distancing, we found a stunning difference in compliance with reference to one's children and grandchildren. Over 65% understood the risks, yet less than half acted consistently with that belief in indoor settings. The writer, a clinical psychologist, is a fellow at the Jerusalem Center, specializing in political psychology.2020-10-22 00:00:00Full Article
