This study compares the factors, which influence individuals from the countries of China, Japan and South Korea to obtain any type of influenza vaccines and their perceived concerns about the new strain of the influenza - pandemic (H1N1) 2009. The data analyzed was from the East Asian Social Survey (EASS), Cross-National Survey Data Sets: Health and Society in East Asia, 2010 (ICPSR 34608) (N=7938). The results of this study suggest that individuals who are concerned about the new strain of influenza are more likely to have obtained influenza vaccine. In these countries, perceived concerns may be directly related to vaccine-related behaviors. The results of this study also indicate that there are variations within each country regarding as to why individuals do or do not obtain the influenza vaccine. Over all, this project provides new insights about the acquisition of the influenza vaccine within China, Japan and South Korea, which will be useful for medical practice within these countries and future research.
本研究比较了来自中国、日本和韩国的个体获得各种流感疫苗的影响因素，以及他们对新型流感（H1N1）2009 年大流行的担忧。分析的数据来自东亚社会调查（EASS）、跨国调查数据集：东亚的健康与社会，2010 年（ICPSR 34608）（N=7938）。本研究结果表明，关注新型流感的个体更有可能接种流感疫苗。在这些国家，对流感的担忧可能与疫苗相关行为直接相关。本研究结果还表明，在每个国家内部，关于个体是否接种流感疫苗的原因存在差异。总的来说，本项目为中国、日本和韩国接种流感疫苗提供了新的见解，这将对这些国家的医疗实践和未来的研究有用。
