接触来自非医学同行和其他被认为具有类似社会价值体系(称为世界观)的人的支持疫苗接种的信息,可以改善疫苗接种态度。尽管如此,少数非洲裔美国父母有朋友和家人为他们提供疫苗建议。本研究的目的是确定非裔美国人父母所认为的八种类型的社区人物的假定世界观,并确定父母对这些数字的信任,以及信任是否根据数字的种族一致性而变化。2015年,对110名非裔美国父母进行了一项横断面调查。父母认为社区人物代表了一系列世界观。尽管对社区人物的信任程度总体上存在差异(p < .001),但学校护士、儿科医生、母亲、父亲、疾病幸存者和疫苗科学家的信任程度较高。除了父亲之外,所有值得信赖的人物都被认为持有共同体主义的观点。与那些显示种族不一致数字的父母相比,显示种族一致数字的父母对他们的信任程度更高(p <0.01)。这些发现表明,针对非裔美国人父母的疫苗接种活动可能会通过包括其他非医学的非裔美国人发言人来加强,这些发言人在信息中传达他们的社区贡献。
Exposure to pro-vaccination messages from nonmedical peers and others perceived to share a similar value system for society (referred to as worldview outlook) improves vaccination attitudes. Nonetheless, a minority of African American parents have friends and family members who provide them with vaccine advice. The aims of the current study were to identify the presumed worldview outlook of eight types of community figures as perceived by African American parents, and determine parents' trust in these figures for vaccine advice, and whether trust varied according to the figures' racial concordance. A cross-sectional survey was administered to 110 African American parents in 2015. Parents perceived the community figures to represent a spectrum of worldview outlooks. Although levels of trust in the community figures differed overall (p < .001), it was high in the school nurse, pediatrician, mother, father, disease survivor, and vaccine scientist. All trusted figures except the father were perceived to hold a communitarian outlook. Parents shown race-concordant figures had higher levels of trust in them than those who were shown race-discordant equivalents (p < .01). These findings suggest that vaccination campaigns geared toward African American parents may be strengthened by including other nonmedical, African American spokespersons who convey their community contributions in messages.
