Table S3. Multilevel linear regression models examining the relationships between people’s acceptance and their privacy concerns and perceived social benefits (n=4260). Table S4. Multilevel linear regression models examining the relationships between people’s privacy concerns and their political views, perceived social tightness, vertical and horizontal individualism (n=4260). Table S5. Multilevel linear regression models examining the relationships between people’s perceived social benefits and their political views, perceived social tightness, vertical and horizontal individualism, and privacy concerns (n=4260). Table S6. Multilevel linear regression models examining the relationships between people’s acceptance and their political views, perceived social tightness, vertical and horizontal individualism, privacy concerns, and perceived social benefits (n=4260). Table S7. Multilevel structural equation model examining hypothesis: (1) people’s political views, perceived social tightness, and individualism have direct effects on their privacy concerns, perceived social benefits, and acceptance of the COVID-19 control measures (n=4260). Table S8. Multilevel structure equation model examining hypotheses: (1) people’s political views, perceived social tightness, and individualism have direct effects on their privacy concerns, perceived social benefits, and acceptance of the COVID-19 control measures; (2) people’s privacy concerns and perceived social benefits play mediating roles in the effects of people’s political views, individualism, and perceived social tightness on their acceptance of COVID-19 control measures (n=4260). Table S9. Multilevel structure equation model examining hypotheses: (1) people’s political views, perceived social tightness, and individualism have direct effects on their privacy concerns, perceived social benefits, and acceptance of the COVID-19 control measures; (2) people’s privacy concerns and perceived social benefits play mediating roles in the effects of people’s political views, individualism, and perceived social tightness on their acceptance of COVID-19 control measures; (3) people’s perceived social benefits play a mediating role in the effects of people’s privacy concerns on their acceptance of COVID-19 control measures (n=4260). Figure S1. Statistical distributions of people’s views on the COVID-19 control measures in the six study areas. (a) Privacy concerns; (b) Perceived social benefits (S-B); and (c) Acceptance. Figure S2. Statistical distributions of people’s vertical and horizontal individualism, political views, perceived social tightness, and perceived COVID-19 risk across the six study areas. (a) vertical individualism; (b) horizontal individualism; (c) political views; (d) perceived social tightness; (e) perceived COVID-19 risk. Figure S3. Conceptual model (Model 5a) for examining the hypothesis: (1) people’s political views, perceived social tightness, and individualism have direct effects on their privacy concerns, perceived social benefits, and acceptance of the COVID-19 control measures. Figure S4. Conceptual model (Model 5b) for examining the hypotheses: (1) people’s political views, perceived social tightness, and individualism have direct effects on their privacy concerns, perceived social benefits, and acceptance of the COVID-19 control measures; (2) people’s privacy concerns and perceived social benefits play mediating roles in the effects of people’s political views, individualism, and perceived social tightness on their acceptance of COVID-19 control measures. Figure S5. Conceptual model (Model 5c) for examining the hypotheses: (1) people’s political views, perceived social tightness, and individualism have direct effects on their privacy concerns, perceived social benefits, and acceptance of the COVID-19 control measures; (2) people’s privacy concerns and perceived social benefits play mediating roles in the effects of people’s political views, individualism, and perceived social tightness on their acceptance of COVID-19 control measures; (3) people’s perceived social benefits play a mediating role in the effects of people’s privacy concerns on their acceptance of COVID-19 control measures.
