背景和目标：开发预防人类免疫缺陷病毒（HIV）感染的疫苗是一个非常理想的目标，然而，接受艾滋病毒疫苗可能存在许多社会心理障碍。本研究的目的是开始研究一些可能影响艾滋病毒免疫态度的因素。目标：评估健康信念和疫苗特征与假设的艾滋病毒免疫接种可接受性之间的关系。研究设计：受试者是 222 名完成自我管理的大学生。结果：独立预测 HIV 疫苗可接受性的健康信念包括感知对 HIV 的易感性、感知到的非传统定义的获得性免疫缺陷综合症 (AIDS) 风险群体的成员身份以及对疫苗导致艾滋病的恐惧。在疫苗特性中，功效对疫苗可接受性的影响最大，其次是疫苗类型。结论：这些结果表明不能假设普遍接受 HIV 疫苗，疫苗特性和个人的健康信念可能会影响疫苗的可接受性。影响有关艾滋病毒免疫的决定。
Backgrond and Objectives: The development of a vaccine to prevent human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection is a highly desirable goal, However, there may be a number of psychosocial barriers to HIV vaccine acceptance, The purpose of this study was to begin to examine some factors that might influence attitudes about HIV immunization.Goal: To evaluate the relationship of health beliefs and vaccine characteristics to acceptability of hypothetical HIV immunization.Study Design: The subjects were 222 college students who completed self-administered questionnaires that addressed health beliefs, vaccine characteristics, and acceptability of hypothetical HIV vaccines.Results: Health beliefs independently predictive of HIV vaccine acceptability included perceived susceptibility to HIV, perceived nonmembership in a traditionally defined acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) risk group, and fear of the vaccine causing AIDS, Of the vaccine characteristics, efficacy influenced vaccine acceptability most strongly, followed by type of vaccine.Conclusion: These results suggest that universal HIV vaccine acceptance cannot be assumed and that vaccine characteristics and individuals' health beliefs are likely to influence decisions regarding HIV immunization.
