Given the significantly higher cervical cancer risks faced by Korea Americans (KA), the aim of this study was to explore cultural influences and barriers affecting human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination decisions and preferred educational methods to effectively deliver HPV information. Focus groups included 20 KA parents. This study found a lack of knowledge about HPV and the vaccine, along with negative perceptions about the vaccine, affects HPV vaccination decision-making. Ineffective conversations and a lack of HPV vaccine recommendations by health care providers influenced by cultural beliefs were found to be another major barrier. These findings reveal new insights to guide the development of HPV education programs.
鉴于韩裔美国人(KA)面临着显著更高的宫颈癌风险,本研究的目的是探讨文化影响和障碍,这些影响和障碍会影响人乳头瘤病毒(HPV)疫苗接种决策以及有效传递HPV信息的首选教育方法。焦点小组包括20位韩裔美籍家长。本研究发现,对HPV和疫苗缺乏了解,以及对疫苗的负面看法,会影响HPV疫苗接种决策。受文化信仰影响,医疗保健提供者进行的无效沟通以及缺乏HPV疫苗推荐被发现是另一个主要障碍。这些发现揭示了新的见解,以指导HPV教育项目的开展。
