关于COVID-19相关问题的基于图表的开放式调查

Graph-based open-ended survey on concerns related to COVID-19

Tatsuro Kawamoto, Takaaki Aoki, Michiko Ueda

摘要:

COVID-19疫情是一场前所未有的公共卫生危机,带来广泛的社会及经济后果。我们在2020年4月至8月期间使用基于图表的开放式调查(GOS)框架进行了四次调查,并调查了日本公众最迫切的担忧和问题。GOS框架是两种传统调查框架的混合体,允许受访者以自由格式发表意见,随后可以作为其他受访者的选择项之一,就像多项选择调查一样。因此,该框架生成了一个将意见和受访者联系起来的意见图。我们还可以构建带注释的意见图,以实现更高的分辨率。通过对注释的意见图进行聚类,我们揭示了响应模式的特征演变以及意见的相互关联性和多方面性。实质上,我们的显著发现是“社会压力”,而不是“感染风险”,是我们的受访者的主要关注点之一。社会压力指的是他们预计在感染COVID-19后会受到他人的批评和歧视。日本文化的集体主义性质,加上政府依靠个人责任来对抗COVID-19的政策,可能解释了上述一些研究结果,因为后者导致了自卫队的出现。相互监督的存在可能会导致对他人的怀疑和对排斥的恐惧,这可能会在社会和个人层面产生负面影响。

英文摘要:

The COVID-19 pandemic is an unprecedented public health crisis with broad social and economic consequences. We conducted four surveys between April and August 2020 using the graph-based open-ended survey (GOS) framework, and investigated the most pressing concerns and issues for the general public in Japan. The GOS framework is a hybrid of the two traditional survey frameworks that allows respondents to post their opinions in a free-format style, which can subsequently serve as one of the choice items for other respondents, just as in a multiple-choice survey. As a result, this framework generates an opinion graph that relates opinions and respondents. We can also construct annotated opinion graphs to achieve a higher resolution. By clustering the annotated opinion graphs, we revealed the characteristic evolution of the response patterns as well as the interconnectedness and multi-faceted nature of opinions. Substantively, our notable finding is that "social pressure," not "infection risk," was one of the major concerns of our respondents. Social pressure refers to criticism and discrimination that they anticipate receiving from others should they contract COVID-19. It is possible that the collectivist nature of Japanese culture coupled with the government's policy of relying on personal responsibility to combat COVID-19 explains some of the above findings, as the latter has led to the emergence of vigilantes. The presence of mutual surveillance can contribute to growing skepticism toward others as well as fear of ostracism, which may have negative consequences at both the societal and individual levels.
