“…Quantitative studies of HPV and HPV vaccine-related KABs suggest most adults know about HPV, HPV-related cervical cancer, and HPV vaccines; however, few are aware that HPV causes noncervical cancers or that HPV vaccination is approved for 27-to 45-year-olds (Alber et al, 2021;Thompson et al, 2021). Among adults aged 27 to 45, HPV and HPV vaccine awareness has been found to be positively associated with being a woman, having a higher educational attainment, and having sought cancer information previously (Thompson et al, 2020), whereas studies of younger adults suggest KABs also vary by income, religion, race/ethnicity, urbanicity, and other sociodemographic characteristics (Bodson, Wilson, Warner, & Kepka, 2017;McBride & Singh, 2018;Mohammed et al, 2018;Preston & Darrow, 2019). Positive associations have been identified between adults' intentions to vaccinate and specific KABs, including perceived effectiveness against future HPV infections, perceived benefits from vaccination, perceived autonomy to be vaccinated, and positive attitudes and norms about HPV vaccination (Alber et al, 2021;Thompson et al, 2021).…”
