The global threat of Covid-19 emerged continously and the number of victims continued to grow; thus, it was highly important to increase knowledge and perceptions of community to form preventive behaviours from Covid-19 transmission.

The results of chi-square test indicated the perceived susceptibility of 0.000, perceived severity of 0.005, perceived benefit of 0.000, perceived barriers of 0.860, cues to action of 0.000, self-efficacy of 0.000, and significance value p<0.05. There was a correlation among perceived susceptibility, perceived severity, perceived benefit, cues to action, self-efficacy and covid-19 preventive behaviors; nevertheless, there was no correlation between perceived barriers and covid-19 preventive behaviors (p>0.005).
