本研究的目的是确定佛罗里达州中部低收入拉丁裔农场工人群体接种人乳头瘤病毒 (HPV) 疫苗的障碍和益处。本研究报告了通过对 46 名低收入拉丁裔农场工人和 19 名为该人群提供服务的医护人员进行的调查和访谈，对有关 HPV 疫苗的益处、障碍、成本、地点和促销的看法进行的形成性定性研究。研究发现，拉丁裔农场工人对 HPV 疫苗以及 HPV 感染与宫颈癌之间的潜在联系存在许多误解。此外，据观察，HPV 疫苗接种意愿与对青少年性行为的担忧和较低的感染风险呈负相关，但可能受到疾病预防信念和医生建议的积极影响。这些发现丰富了关于拉丁裔亚群体 HPV 疫苗可接受性的日益深入的研究，为干预措施的制定、营销材料、教育和政策提供信息。
The purpose of this study was to identify the barriers and benefits to human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination in a low-income, Latina farmworker population in central Florida. This study reports on formative qualitative research conducted on perceptions of benefits, barriers, costs, place, and promotion related to the HPV vaccine from surveys and interviews with a sample of 46 low-income, Latina farm workers and 19 health care workers serving this population. It was found that Latina farmworkers hold many misperceptions about the HPV vaccine and the potential links between HPV infection and cervical cancer. In addition, it was observed that HPV vaccination intention was inversely related to concerns about adolescent sexual behavior and low perceived risk of infection but might be positively influenced by belief in illness prevention and physician recommendation. These findings add to the growing research on HPV vaccine acceptability among Latina subgroups to inform intervention development, marketing materials, education, and policy.
