To comply or not comply? A latent profile analysis of behaviours and attitudes during the COVID-19 pandemic
https://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0255268

"Abstract

"How and why do people comply with protective behaviours during COVID-19? The emerging literature employs a variable-centered approach, typically using a narrow selection of constructs within a study. This study is the first to adopt a person-centred approach to identify complex patterns of compliance, and holistically examine underlying psychological differences, integrating multiple psychology paradigms and epidemiology. 1575 participants from Australia, US, UK, and Canada indicated their behaviours, attitudes, personality, cognitive/decision-making ability, resilience, adaptability, coping, political and cultural factors, and information consumption during the pandemic’s first wave...

Overall conclusion

... The non-compliant group expressed greater agreement with statements that protective measures are costly and inconvenient than the compliant group, and were less worried about COVID-19 than the compliant group. Further, the non-compliant group was less agreeable, more extraverted, lower on intellect/openness, and more likely to cope with COVID-19 through denial, substance use, and behavioural disengagement. They also checked the news and official sources for COVID-19 information less frequently, were less likely to verify the accuracy of information, and reported less trust in information sources and the government. The non-compliant group scored higher on reactance—indicating they are more motivated to fight for their individual freedom; perceived their culture as looser—indicating perceptions that individual freedom is of high value; and scored higher on amorality—indicating greater self-interest and disregard for social obligations than the compliant group. Alarmingly, the non-compliant group were more likely than the compliant group to leave their home in the following week to meet friends/family, for religious reasons, because they are bored, and to exercise their right to freedom. These differences highlight a number of important characteristics of non-compliers which could be targeted to improve compliance. For instance, the compliant group used more adaptive coping strategies including distraction, active coping, and planning. Public education and the promotion of adaptive coping strategies may thus help to enhance compliance with protective measures. Further, these findings highlight the importance of regulating and monitoring misinformation as non-compliers appear not to use official sources for COVID-19 information, nor do they tend to verify the legitimacy of information. Hence, disseminating official information through a variety of casual sources might reach a larger audience; however, education is needed about how to evaluate the credibility information. Lastly, framing public health messages to appeal to self-interests may also be more effective in promoting positive behaviour change amongst non-compliant people than appealing to social obligations and the need to protect others."

The Florida Gators are back on the diamond after coming away with their ninth straight season opener win. Florida knocked off the Liberty Flames last night 7-2 thanks to terrific performance by Hunter Barco and Sterlin Thompson. First pitch is at 4pm EST. Lineups will be posted soon

When will we draw a line in the sand and say, you need help or compete against men? To me it is a lesson so vividly taught by Hans Christian Andersen with his classic tale: "The Emperor's New Clothes." What say you, Lot Lizards?

GAINESVILLE, Fla. - No. 4 Florida picked up a pair of victories over Villanova, 4-0, and Louisville, 9-1 (6 innings), Saturday afternoon during the second day of the T-Mobile Tournament at Katie Seashole Pressly Stadium.

Florida struck for two more in the 2nd inning via two-out error by Villanova's shortstop who misplayed a fly ball, which allowed Wallace and Adams to score and extend the lead out to 4-0.
The Gators offense hit a different gear in their second game against Louisville. The team pounded out a season-high 14 hits and was led by Falby and Adams who both tallied 3-for-3 performances at the top of the lineup. Sophomore Avery Goelz and Katie Kistler each notched 2-for-3 performances at the plate, while Echols, Walsh, Lindsey and Emily Wilkie chipped in a hit a piece.

Florida struck for one run in the 1st inning of play, three in the 4th inning and five in the 6th inning for its third run-rule victory of the season.

BATON ROUGE, La. - Florida women's basketball is slated to meet No. 11 LSU on Sunday, Feb. 20, for the second time this season at 4 p.m. ET in the Pete Maravich Assembly Center.

The game will be streamed live on SEC Network with Sam Gore and Tamika Catchings on the call. Kyle Crooks and Brittany Davis will handle radio responsibilities on 98.1FM/850AM WRUF.

The No. 17 Gators and No. 11 Tigers met earlier this season on Jan. 23 with the Gators taking a hard-fought 73-72 victory in Gainesville, Fla. The veteran presence, Kiara Smith led the Gators with an impressive 23-point, eight-assist, three-rebound and three-steal performance. Sophomore Jordyn Merritt contributed 16 points, including 4-of-6 from three-point range, three of which came in the third quarter to help keep the Gators within striking distance at four towards the end, in addition to seven rebounds, four steals and two blocks. Zippy Broughton came up big for UF, ending with 14 points, four rebounds and three steals.

After three-consecutive road games, Florida returned home on Thursday evening to defeat Arkansas, 76-67, in Exactech Arena. The Gators' defense shined, holding the Razorbacks, who average over nine threes a game, to just 1-of-13 shooting from long range. Kiara Smith led UF with 19 points, seven rebounds and five assists. Florida now boasts 20 victories for the first time since the 2015-16 campaign when they ended 22-9. It is the fastest UF has reached 20 wins since starting 20-2 during the 2008-09 season.

After defeating Arkansas, Florida earned their 10th conference win of the season, marking the earliest the Gators have reached 10 wins in the SEC since the 2000-01 season when they began 10-3 in the league. Florida has also now won 10 SEC games for just the fourth time in program history. The last time UF won 10 conference matchups came during a 10-6 season in 2015-16. Six of Florida's wins have come on the road in SEC play, the most road-SEC wins for the Gators since the 2000-01 season.

When UF gets to the free throw line, the Gators are a hard squad to beat. Florida leads the conference in free throw percentage, connecting on 74.6% of their attempts. This season, UF has shot over 75% in 14 games and over 90% in three contests. The Gators have shot over 75% in seven of their last nine outings.

After entering the top 25 for the first time since the 2015-16 season a week ago, the Gators continue to climb in the rankings, coming in at No. 17 in the AP poll and #21 in the Coaches poll this week.

LSU enters the contest boasting a 22-4 record (10-3 SEC) and is currently in a three-way tie for second in the conference with Florida and Tennessee. Most recently, the Tigers defeated Mississippi State in Starkville, Miss., 71-59.

Next week a committee consisting of the city and county commissioners will vote to decide whether or not to use $27 million of penny sales tax funds designated for economic vitality projects in Leon County to bond and pay interest on renovations at Doak Campbell stadium such as ADA compliance upgrades, trip mitigation (drunk, depressed FSU fans seem to be destined to stumble anyways), removal of wooden structures (erector set is actually a Lincoln Log structure apparently), and other normal renovation work involving electrical, plumbing, etc. The Seminole Boosters are dedicating $100 million to stadium improvements, but that is going towards exclusive seating and related amenities. Anyway, this $27 million amount pretty much depletes the set aside funds for economic vitality for the next 20 years and the so-called economic impact of this project is being righteously questioned. The vote currently is projected at 7-5 in favor and local media is exposing campaign funds from highly connected FSU folks to some of the proponents of the project. Leon county has been a great place to live, but this is a pathetic use of limited funds that could be used in some of other form to attract visitors here. This appears to have the chance of becoming a single-issue voting situation in the elections this Fall. In conclusion, this just shows how quickly FSU as a member of ACC is falling behind UF in the new NIL arms-race that is CFB. $27 million is a huge sum, but just think that might equate to the annual gap in TV revenue both schools received.

Anyone watch or are you still butt hurt over CK kneeling@?

Too bad, you missed a great game. Great playoffs for that matter.

@Franz Beard any comments?

Mike White has proven, he can recruit elite slasher type players. As I read the 247 article about Castleton, and him having basically no help offensively. I have a simple but valid question, Igor was a shooter, but also a transfer, why has Mike White not been able to lure, or recruit a jump shooter, with a quick release ? I heard all the hype about Jones, and he has a wind up stot.
