2009年4月首次报告了潜在的H1N1大流行的威胁。与主要影响学龄前儿童、孕妇和老年人的常规季节性流感不同,年轻健康的成年人被确定为感染H1N1病毒的高危人群之一。这项研究是第一个探讨流感传播对大学生大流行风险感知和疫苗接种意愿的影响的研究。研究结果表明,新闻媒体依赖和风险认知对大学生的预防接种意向有积极影响。
The threat of a potential H1N1 pandemic was first reported in April 2009. Unlike the regular seasonal influenza that affects primarily preschool children, pregnant women, and the elderly, young, healthy adults were identified as 1 of the high-risk groups for contracting the H1N1 virus. This study was among the first to explore the impact of influenza communication on college students' pandemic risk perception and vaccination intent. Study results suggest that news media dependency and risk perception have a positive influence on college students' vaccination intent.
