Vaccine Acceptance in Pregnant Minority Women

Completed · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Pregnancy

In brief

The purpose of study will be to test two vaccine education strategies to learn how they impact flu and pertussis (Tdap) vaccination rates and attitudes regarding vaccination during pregnancy after participating in the intervention. The education strategies will be based on the elaboration likelihood model (ELM). This model is based on experimental psychology and has been previously used to increase breast cancer screening rates. These education strategies will be delivered through routine prenatal care visits to black/African-American women in Atlanta.
