dc.description.abstractIn this bachelor thesis the influence of social norms on mask-wearing in times of COVID-19 among Hong Kong and Swiss psychology students is examined. The goal is to explore differences in mask-wearing norms among Hong Kong and Swiss psychology students providing health promoters a better understanding of the intersection between social norms and preventive behavior. The empirical study consists of two phases. Four qualitative expert interviews serve as basis for further six qualitative student interviews. All interviews are analyzed using the inductive category formation by Mayring. The results illustrate that mask-wearing among Hong Kong students is common due to their past experience with SARS. In contrast, Swiss students emphasize wearing masks due to governmental mask regulations and refer to mask demonstrations in Switzerland. In conclusion, mask-wearing among Hong Kong students is grounded in social values and socially sanctioned when not demonstrated during COVID-19 in Hong Kong. By comparison, the inconsistent mask regulations in Switzerland have diminished the normative practice of mask-wearing among Swiss students.de_CH
