Abstract
As the new normal quickly becomes the daily reality, Filipinos must acclimate to the still looming threat of COVID-19 by adapting recommended health safety protocols. The WHO has suggested that the best way to prevent the spread of the virus and to prepare people for the new normal is through the dissemination of accurate information about the cause, transmission, and prevention of COVID-19. The Protection Motivation Theory (PMT) provides insight as to how accurate knowledge of COVID-19 is translated into COVID-19 health protective behaviors among Filipinos. This study tested threat perception and self-efficacy as mediators between knowledge of COVID-19 and adherence to COVID-19 health safety guidelines. Data was gathered from two hundred fifty-one Filipinos using a questionnaire adapted for this study. The model 4 of the Hayes PROCESS macro for SPSS was used to analyze the data. Threat perception was found to mediate the relationship between knowledge and adherence while self-efficacy did not. This implies that knowledge may not be enough to trigger adherence on its own.
