BACKGROUND
The purpose of this study was to examine factors related to HPV vaccination initiation and completion, especially the role of health knowledge, among college students in a southern state.
METHODS
College students ages 17-45 (n=1,708) were analyzed in this study. Primary outcomes were HPV vaccine series initiation and completion; binary logistic regressions were performed to identify associated factors.
RESULTS
Among total participants, students who were aware that HPV could be transmitted even without symptoms were less likely to initiate HPV vaccination. However, among students who have initiated the vaccine series, those who were aware that HPV could be transmitted without symptoms and that men should receive the HPV vaccine were more likely to complete the vaccine series. Other significant variables included age, gender, race, and international student status.
CONCLUSION
Future studies are needed to investigate students' concerns regarding initiating HPV vaccination and how to effectively motivate students to initiate and complete the HPV vaccine series.
背景
本研究旨在探讨与 HPV 疫苗接种启动和完成相关的因素，尤其是在南部一州的大学生中，健康知识的作用。
方法
本研究分析了年龄在 17-45 岁的大学生（n=1708）。主要结局是 HPV 疫苗系列的启动和完成；采用二项逻辑回归分析确定相关因素。
结果
在所有参与者中，那些意识到 HPV 即使没有症状也可以传播的学生不太可能开始接种 HPV 疫苗。然而，在已经开始接种疫苗系列的学生中，那些意识到 HPV 可以在没有症状的情况下传播，并且男性也应该接种 HPV 疫苗的学生更有可能完成疫苗系列接种。其他重要变量包括年龄、性别、种族和国际学生身份。
结论
需要进一步研究学生对启动 HPV 疫苗接种的关注，以及如何有效地激励学生启动和完成 HPV 疫苗系列接种。
