본 연구는 우리나라 국민들의 COVID-19 두려움 수준과 백신수용성을 파악하고 사람들의 삶의 만족도를 알아봄으로써 COVID-19로 활기를 잃은 사람들의 건강한 생활을 위한 구체적인 복지 대책을 마련하는데 근거를 제공하고자 한다. 연구결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 조사대상자가 인지하는 코로나바이러스의 두려움은 매우 높게 나타났다. 둘째, 코로나바이러스 예방 백신이 타 백신과 비교하였을 때 백신에 대한 두려움 혹은 공포감은 상당히 높았다. 셋째, 조사대상자가 지각하는 성인들의 백신수용도는 긍정적으로 나타났다. 넷째, 코로나바이러스 예방백신에 대한 정부정책의 신뢰도는 비교적 높게 나타났다. 다섯째, 삶의 질 평가에서 경제적 만족도는 다른 영역에 비해 낮았으며 정서적 만족도는 다른 영역에 비해 비교적 높은 점수로 나타났다.
