MethodsKnowledge was measured on a 14-item, multiple-choice scale that covered a subset of the recommended immunization schedule, efficacy and adverse events, contraindications, and prevalence rates of vaccine-preventable diseases. Vested interest, self-efficacy, and attitudes toward “having all children in your practice properly immunized at every health care visit” were measured on 3-, 2-and 4-item 5-point Likert scales, respectively. Perceived barriers were measured on a 16-item scale coveringResultsResponse rate was 72% among general pediatricians, 49% among subspecialty pediatricians, 79% among third-year pediatric residents, and 97% among first-year pediatric and family medicine residents, resulting in the overall response rate of 65%.
