Sažetak

Aim To compare Croatian participants vaccinated against
coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) and unvaccinated
participants in terms of socio-demographic, personal, social, and COVID-19-related variables.
Methods From August till December 2021, 721 (465 vaccinated and 256 unvaccinated) participants completed an
online survey about socio-demographic (age, sex income,
education, marital status), personal (well-being indicators,
personality measures and health), social (trust in experts,
trust in government), and COVID-19-related characteristics
(fear of COVID-19, history of COVID-19 infection). Differences between the groups were assessed with discriminant
analysis.
Results The variables that best discriminated between
vaccinated and unvaccinated participants were higher
trust in experts, no history of COVID-19 infection, older age,
higher fear of COVID-19, and intellect.
Conclusion The study points to the importance of trust in
experts in the promotion of COVID-19 vaccine.
