B3: Is Underimmunization Related to Vaccine Safety Concerns? Results from the National Immunization Survey | |||
This workshop will present data from the National Immunization Survey (NIS) module, Knowledge, Attitudes and Practices. Although several studies have addressed the question of what factors influence parents’ decisions about immunizing their children, none have looked at a comprehensive list including social factors, attitudes, beliefs, use of alternative medicine, chronic disease or vaccine side effects in family members, and use of various sources of information to determine what constellation of factors predict whether or not parents are up to date with their children’s immunizations. The studies presented will examine differences in parents of children who are missing high profile vaccines (DTaP, hepatitis B, MCV) and those who are up to date for recommended vaccines. | |||
Learning Objectives: The workshop participant should be able to discuss the impact of vaccine safety concerns on vaccination behaviors.
