Resumo(s)
This work project attempts to understand what determines risk perceptions regarding COVID-19,at an individual, familiar and communitarian levels, to better design effective health safety policies and advices. It uses data collected by the company GFK in Portugal between the 23rdof May and the 30thof June 2020. It does so through the application of LPM, MLE and SUR models. As lower risk perceptions could motivate targeted interventions, the fact that young age and low levels of education are associated with such perceptions makes them natural groups for these policies in order to better control the spread of COVID-19.
