摘要: The aims of this study were to identify the predictors people's willingness be vaccinated against influenza and determine how improve inoculation rate. was based upon results our original large-scale survey conducted in USA 2005. A model bounded rationality can explain vaccination behavior fairly well: (a) people evaluate costs benefits by applying risk aversion time preference; (b) ‘status quo bias’ those who past affects their decision future; (c) overconfidence indirectly through moderation perceived variables. Policy implications include: dissemination information about vaccine is especially important among are inexperienced with since they undervalue effectiveness vaccination; lowering total cost vaccination, including (for example, offering at workplaces) may raise rate, vaccine, have experience tend take it on a regular basis.
