Abstract

To increase the uptake of the human papillomavirus HPV vaccine understanding the determinants of vaccination intentions for various groups is important Three studies examining theoretical determinants of collegeaged women’s study 1 n = 286 parents’ of daughters study 2 n = 230 and parents’ of sons study 3 n = 137 HPV vaccination intentions were conducted Participants completed questionnaires assessing constructs of protection motivation theory PMT and the theory of planned behaviour TPB Results indicate that both PMT and TPB constructs predict intentions for the different groups Focusing on the response efficacy of the vaccine rather than the severity of contracting HPV may be an effective way to increase vaccination intentions among all groups Focusing on vulnerability to HPV may only increase intentions among collegeaged women and parents of sons and increasing selfefficacy may only increase intentions among collegeaged women and parents of daughters Findings have implications for understanding differences among groups considering HPV vaccination and tailoring interventions
