Question
When COVID-19 emerged in 2020, emergency care providers (physicians, residents, nurses and emergency medical system) were on the front lines. We conducted a provider survey of emergency healthcare workers in the Fall of 2020 to measure their perceived risk of COVID-19. Please use the variable, covidthreat, as the main outcome. The higher the score, the more threat of COVID-19 that the participant reported. This outcome, covidthreat, was calculated by taking the average of 10 variables that measure the threat of COVID-19 (state1-state10). The 10 individual variables are included in the dataset if you would like to see how the participants responded to each question. You are also welcome to use these individual covid threat variables to report which ones were the most commonly reported by participants.
There are different possible predictors of threat of covid in this data set: (1) demographic variables such as age, sex, race; (2) job characteristics such as job title, work shift, work duration; (3) personal variables that put participant and/or family at risk such as lives with kids, childcare responsibilities, eldercare, chronic medical condition; (4) the work environment (workplace1 – workplace9); (5) coping strategies such as emotional, instrumental, substance use, religion and self-distraction; and (6) community concerns such as government response to covid, misinformation and people in community not adhering to public health guidelines. Finally, there is one question about burnout so that you can also examine the relationship between covidthreat and burnout.
Please use the workplace variables to create one or more measures of the workplace environment that you think may influence the threat of COVID-19. This is your key independent variable of interest so give some thought about how you will use these variables in your analysis. The other predictors that you include in your model will be variables that you control for when examining the relationship between covidthreat and work environment.
The first set of analyses should be bivariate and examine the outcome by the different types of variables that you have.
1. Does the threat of COVID-19 vary significantly by demographic characteristics such as age, sex race or state?
2. Does the threat of COVID-19 vary by job title, how long the person has been working or the type of shift the participant typically works?
3. Does the threat of COVID-19 vary by the workplace environment?
4. How do the coping strategies affect self-report covid threat? How does the threat of COVID-19 affect burnout?
5. Do any of the community factors influence threat of covid?
6. Using regression, examine the relationship between covid threat and the workplace environment, controlling for other types of factors including job title and coping strategies.
7. What are the policy implications of your findings?
8. Please remember in the discussion section to include a paragraph that summarizes the limitations of your study.
