“…Alaska Native parents who participated differed from other parents in stating that a reason to vaccinate was to protect their daughters against a sexually transmitted infection (STI) in case of an event beyond their control, like sexual assault. This comment was not made in any other studies (7)(8)(9)(10)(11)(12)(13)(14)(15)(16)(17). These parents also differed in their reasons for declining the vaccination as compared to parents in other studies (7,12,17).…”

“…Two studies examined the effect of urban versus suburban status on vaccine acceptability; Olshen et al found that urban parents were generally more positive about all vaccines, while suburban parents favoured "serious" disease vaccines (13). In contrast, Zimet et al found no association between STD vaccine acceptability and an urban/suburban setting (15). Researchers in Cuernavaca, Mexico, found no association between HPV immunization acceptance and age, education, socio-economic status, age at first intercourse or history of Pap tests (16).…”

Objectives. To describe Alaska Native parents' knowledge of and attitudes towards cervical cancer, the human papillomavirus (HPV) and the HPV vaccine. Study Design. This was a qualitative study composed of 11 focus groups (n=80) that were held in 1 small village, towns and 1 large urban centre in Alaska. Methods. A convenience sample of Alaska Native parents/guardians was recruited in each community to participate in focus groups and to fill out a quantitative survey. Results. While many parents had heard about HPV, most were unaware of its link with cervical cancer. The majority wanted to vaccinate their daughters because they had health and safety concerns; believed that vaccines work; had personal experiences with cancer; or believed that their daughters were susceptible to HPV. Reasons for refusal included general concerns about vaccines; a need for more information; a fear of side effects; wanting more vaccine research; and a fear of being in an experimental trial. Conclusions. The majority of parents were interested in having their daughters vaccinated. Acceptance of the vaccine was primarily based on a parent's desire to protect her/his child from cancer; while reasons for refusal revolved around trust issues and fear of unknown negative consequences

This paper estimates the marginal willingness-to-pay for attributes of a hypothetical HIV vaccine using discrete choice modeling.We use primary data from 326 respondents from Bangkok and Chiang Mai, Thailand, in 2008-2009, selected using purposive, venue-based sampling across two strata. Participants completed a structured questionnaire and full rank discrete choice modelling task administered using computer-assisted personal interviewing. The choice experiment was used to rank eight hypothetical HIV vaccine scenarios, with each scenario comprising seven attributes (including cost) each of which had two levels. The data were analyzed in two alternative specifications: (1) best-worst; and (2) full-rank, using logit likelihood functions estimated with custom routines in Gauss matrix programming language.In the full-rank specification, all vaccine attributes are significant predictors of probability of vaccine choice. The biomedical attributes of the hypothetical HIV vaccine (efficacy, absence of VISP, absence of side effects, and duration of effect) are the most important attributes for HIV vaccine choice. On average respondents are more than twice as likely to accept a vaccine with 99% efficacy, than a vaccine with 50% efficacy. This translates to a willingness to pay US$383 more for a high efficacy vaccine compared with the low efficacy vaccine.Knowledge of the relative importance of determinants of HIV vaccine acceptability is important to ensure the success of future vaccination programs. Future acceptability studies of hypothetical HIV vaccines should use more finely-grained biomedical attributes, and could also improve the external validity of results by including more levels of the cost attribute.
