摘要: OBJECTIVE Flu vaccinations are recommended for almost everyone, but uptake may vary because of perceived social norms. We aimed to examine the relationship between circle vaccine coverage (including family, friends, and acquaintances) own vaccination behavior as well potential mediators. METHODS In 2011, 357 participants from RAND's American Life Panel reported 2010-2011 flu season, 2009-2010 seasons, risk without with vaccination, safety. 2012 2016, respectively, returned report their 2011-2012 season (N = 338) 2015-2016 216). RESULTS Perceiving greater percentage was associated a likelihood getting vaccinated in (odds ratio [OR] 1.03, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.01, 1.04) subsequent (OR 1.02, CI 1.03) not 1.00, .99, 1.01), seen logistic regressions that controlled demographics behavior. All significant relationships were mediated by vaccination. CONCLUSIONS Perceived is current establishing patterns persist into future. People's decisions be informed perceptions peers' beliefs behaviors. discuss intervention strategies promoting counteracting negative positive (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2019 APA, all rights reserved).
