We evaluated the relative impact of four procedures designed to encourage parents to obtain immunizations for their children. In a public health setting, the families of 1,133 immunization-deficient preschool children were randomly assigned to six conditions: (a) a general prompt; (b) a more client-specific prompt; (c) a specific prompt and increased public health clinic access; (d) a specific prompt and monetary incentives; (e) contact control; and (f) no contact control. All interventions, except the general prompt, produced some evidence of improvement when compared with the control groups. The monetary incentive group revealed the largest effect, followed by the increased access group, specific prompt group, and general prompt group, respectively. The data suggest that relatively powerful and immediate effects on preschoolers' clinic attendance for immunization may be produced by monetary incentives in conjunction with client-specific prompts. However, client-specific prompts alone appear to be the most cost-effective of the interventions.
我们评估了旨在鼓励家长为孩子进行免疫接种的四种程序的相对影响。在公共卫生环境中，1133名免疫接种不足的学龄前儿童的家庭被随机分配到六种情况中：(a) 一般提示；(b) 更针对个体的提示；(c) 特定提示并增加公共卫生诊所的就诊机会；(d) 特定提示并给予金钱激励；(e) 接触控制；以及 (f) 无接触控制。与对照组相比，除一般提示外，所有干预措施都产生了一些改善的证据。金钱激励组的效果最为显著，其次分别是增加就诊机会组、特定提示组和一般提示组。数据表明，金钱激励与针对个体的提示相结合，可能会对学龄前儿童前往诊所进行免疫接种产生相对强大且直接的影响。然而，仅针对个体的提示似乎是最具成本效益的干预措施。
