我们在美国进行的一项横断面研究中，评估了修改版疫苗犹豫量表 (VHS) 在 HIV 感染者 (PWH) 中对 COVID-19 疫苗接种的心理测量特性。在线调查问卷的自我报告数据是从 N = 175 名 PWH 样本中收集的。使用改编后的 VHS 以英语或西班牙语对参与者进行了关于对 COVID-19 疫苗接种的态度的调查。参与者平均年龄 51.55 岁 (SD = 13.90)，其中 55% 是女性。该量表的信度是可以接受的（α = 0.72）。探索性因子分析显示，“缺乏信心”和“风险”解释了45.55%和12.31%的方差。相关项目显示出与这些因素的预期关联，支持结构有效性。结果表明，用于 COVID-19 疫苗接种的改良 VHS 具有足够的心理测量特性。我们复制了 VHS 的原始因子结构，并证明了足够的内部一致性和结构效度。经过验证的工具对于指导针对高危人群的疫苗接种政策和运动至关重要。
We evaluated the psychometric properties of a modified version of the Vaccine Hesitancy Scale (VHS) among people with HIV (PWH) for COVID-19 vaccination in a cross-sectional study in the US. Self-report data from an online questionnaire were collected from a sample of N = 175 PWH. Participants were surveyed in English or Spanish regarding attitudes towards COVID-19 vaccination using the adapted VHS. Participants were on average 51.55 years of age (SD = 13.90) 55% were women. The reliability of the scale was acceptable (α = 0.72). An exploratory factor analysis showed that “Lack of confidence” and “Risks” explained 45.55% and 12.31% of the variance. Related items showed expected associations with these factors, supporting construct validity. Results illustrate that the modified VHS for COVID-19 vaccination has adequate psychometric properties. We replicated the original factor structure of the VHS and demonstrated adequate internal consistency and construct validity. Validated tools are essential to guide vaccination policy and campaigns towards populations at risk.
