OBJECTIVES: To describe the risk perception and behavioral responses among Chinese adults and to assess the associations of risk communication, risk perception, and behavioral adherence during the COVID-19 epidemic. METHODS: A national cross-sectional survey was conducted in 31 provinces in China with a total number of 5,039 effective questionnaires collected. The questionnaire included sociodemographic characteristics, COVID-19 risk communication factors, mask and soap supply, and engagement in preventive behaviors during the epidemic. Multivariable Logistic regression was used. RESULTS: An overwhelmingly high prevalence of Chinese people was exposed to COVID-19 related risk communication messages (86.5%) and an overwhelming majority of respondents reported engagement in preventive behaviors (88.3%). Exposed to risk communication messages were positively associated with engaging in preventive behaviors, whereas, believing in misinformation were negatively associated with wearing masks when in public (p<.01). Respondents encountered an inadequate supplies of personal protection materials were negatively associated with their outdoor hygiene behaviors. People who were male, in an older age group, minorities, with lower education, with lower income, and lived in rural area showed lower exposures to risk communication messages. CONCLUSIONS: Future risk communication practices are recommended to better monitor population risk perceptions and pay attention to socio-demographically disadvantaged people.
