To examine correlates of human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine awareness and information sources in a state requiring schools to inform parents about HPV vaccine.
Telephone survey of a North Carolina population-based sample of 696 parents of females aged 10-17 years about HPV vaccine awareness and information sources (daughters' schools, healthcare provider, drug company advertisements, news stories) was conducted.
Overall, 91% of parents had heard of HPV vaccine. Parents were more likely to be aware if they had household incomes of $50,000 or higher, were women, had non-Hispanic white daughters, or had daughters vaccinated against meningitis. Information sources included drug company advertisements (64%), healthcare providers (50%), news stories (50%), and schools (9%). Only parents who heard from their children's healthcare providers were more likely to initiate HPV vaccine for their daughters.
Parents had rarely heard of the vaccine through schools. The only source associated with vaccine initiation was hearing from a healthcare provider.
调查在要求学校向家长告知 HPV 疫苗的州，HPV 疫苗知晓率和信息来源的相关因素。
对北卡罗来纳州一个基于人群的 696 名 10-17 岁女性家长进行电话调查，了解 HPV 疫苗的知晓率和信息来源（女儿的学校、医疗保健提供者、制药公司广告、新闻报道）。
总体而言，91%的家长听说过 HPV 疫苗。如果父母的家庭收入在 50,000 美元或以上，是女性，女儿是非西班牙裔白人，或者女儿接种过脑膜炎疫苗，那么他们更有可能了解 HPV 疫苗。信息来源包括制药公司广告（64%）、医疗保健提供者（50%）、新闻报道（50%）和学校（9%）。只有从女儿的医疗保健提供者那里听说过疫苗的父母才更有可能为女儿接种 HPV 疫苗。
父母很少通过学校听说过这种疫苗。唯一与疫苗接种有关的来源是从医疗保健提供者那里听说。
