Behavior and beliefs about influenza vaccine among adults aged 50-64 years
Santibanez TA , Mootrey GT , Euler GL , Janssen AP . Am J Health Behav 2010 34 (1) 77-89 OBJECTIVE: To examine demographics and beliefs about influenza disease and vaccine that may be associated with influenza vaccination among 50- to 64-year-olds. METHODS: A national sample of adults aged 50-64 years surveyed by telephone. RESULTS: Variables associated with receiving influenza vaccination included age, education level, recent doctor visit, and beliefs about vaccine effectiveness and vaccine safety. Beliefs about influenza vaccination varied by race/ethnicity, age, education, and gender. CONCLUSION: The finding of demographic differences in beliefs suggests that segmented communication messages designed for specific demographic subgroups may help to increase influenza vaccination coverage. |
