The purpose of this study was to measure the HPV vaccine behaviors and intentions of college-aged men. 493 participants, who identified as "male" or "trans man", from a large university in the Mid-Atlantic were included in this study. An online survey measured several independent variables as well as variables related to HPV and HPV vaccine knowledge, perceptions, and behaviors. Descriptive statistics were used to evaluate each variable after filtering the participants by vaccination status. A binomial logistic regression was used to analyze and predict the effect of each variable on college men's vaccination status. The academic year in which participants completed the survey, home location, and HPV knowledge were significant predictors of HPV vaccination status. Lack of inclusion of males during conversations about the HPV vaccine could be the source of the differences between male and female HPV vaccination behavior and intention.
本研究的目的是衡量大学年龄段男性的人乳头瘤病毒（HPV）疫苗接种行为和意愿。来自大西洋中部一所大型大学的493名自称“男性”或“跨性别男性”的参与者被纳入本研究。一项在线调查测量了几个自变量以及与HPV和HPV疫苗知识、认知及行为相关的变量。在根据疫苗接种状况对参与者进行筛选后，使用描述性统计来评估每个变量。采用二项逻辑回归分析并预测每个变量对大学男性疫苗接种状况的影响。参与者完成调查的学年、家乡位置和HPV知识是HPV疫苗接种状况的重要预测因素。在关于HPV疫苗的讨论中未纳入男性可能是男女HPV疫苗接种行为和意愿存在差异的原因。
