The sociodemographic characteristics of the participants (n = 352) are as follows: the mean age was 43.9 years; 62.5% were female; 59.4% lived in central Taiwan; 18.2% had a degree from university or above, and 41.2% had a senior high-school diploma. About half (49.7%) of the participants were shoppers; 22.7%, 18.2%, and 9.4% were market workers at low, medium, and high risk for AI, respectively. Slightly more than half (52.6%) of the participants adopted the recommended AI preventive behavior. Table 1 shows the associations of sociodemographic characteristics and AI risk perception with the recommended AI preventive behavior. Younger participants were more likely than older participants (mean age = 42.0 vs. 45.6, t = 3.00, p = .003), females were more likely than males (50.0% vs. 43.2%, x 2 = 1.54, df = 1, p = .22), and participants who lived in northeastern Taiwan were more likely than those in central Taiwan (62.9% vs. 36.8%, x 2 = 23.19, df = 1, p,.0001) to practice the recommended AI preventive behavior. Furthermore, participants with a university or higher degree (70.3%) were the most likely to adopt the AI preventive behavior, followed by those with a senior high-school diploma (53.8%) and those with a junior high-school or less education (30.8%) (x 2 = 37.71, df = 2, p,.0001). Finally, compared with their counterparts, participants who had correct knowledge about AI fatality rate (68.8% vs. 39.8%, x 2 = 23.16, df = 1, p,.0001), who anticipated an AI epidemic in Taiwan (54.8% vs. 41.6%, x 2 = 6.08, df = 1, p = .01), who knew about severe cases of AI (55.0% vs. 26.1%, x 2 = 22.78, df = 1, p,.0001), and who knew about AI outbreaks in Kaohsiung (63.5% vs. 37.2%, x 2 = 23.20, df = 1, p,.0001) were more likely to practice the recommended AI preventive behavior. Table 2 presents the final multivariate logistic regression model for covariates of AI preventive behavior. Participants who lived in northeastern Taiwan were 6 times as likely as those in central Taiwan to practice the recommended AI preventive behavior (adjusted odds ratio [AOR] = 6.01, 95% confidence interval [95% CI] = 3.40-10.61). Gender did not have a statistically significant effect; however, male gender was found to interact with senior high-school education (AOR = 0.34, 95% CI = 0.12-0.98). Hence, females with a senior high-school diploma were more than 3 times as likely (AOR = 3.33, 95% CI = 1.56-7.07), and participants with a university or higher degree were nearly 7 times as likely (AOR = 6.86, 95% CI = 2.60-18.06) to adopt the AI preventive behavior, compared with their counterparts with a junior high-school or less education. Further, participants who had correct knowledge about AI fatality rate were more than 4 times as likely (AOR = 4.18, 95% CI = 2.25-7.75), those who knew about AI severe cases were approximately 2 times as likely (AOR = 2.13, 95% CI = 1.13-3.99), and those who knew about AI outbreaks in Kaohsiung were more than 2 times as likely (AOR = 2.24, 95% CI = 1.28-3.92) to practice the AI preventive behavior, compared with their counterparts.
