Questions1. What role does mass communication play in informing
individuals about the HPV vaccine?
2. How are language and vaccine framing in interpersonal communication linked to HPV vaccine parental decision making?
3. What are the communication goals of parents when discussing HPV vaccination with their child and child’s health care provider (HCP)?
4. How do those communication goals inform parent-child & parent-HCP communication about the vaccine?

Leading source of health information: MASS MEDIA
Public health information often presented in numbers & statistics Confusing; audience disinterested
Anti-vaccine campaigns often use of narratives anecdotes, quotations, vignettes, personal stories can lead to cancer-relevant belief and behavior change more effective than statistical evidence on some patient

VACCINE DECISION-MAKING: OMISSION BIAS the tendency for people to favor acts of omission over acts
of commission may lead to bias against vaccines
decision not to vaccinate is reversible, whereas deciding to vaccinate is not
Could account for why parents who express an intention to vaccinate or adopt certain avoidance or delay strategies

VACCINE DECISION-MAKING: MULTIPLE GOALS IN COMMUNICATION communication is purposeful and involves much more than interactions of
behaviors or exchanges of information Communication is typically strategic and individuals use communication to
perform actions
Assumptions:1. People enact multiple goals concurrently in communicative situations2. People may enter a communicative exchange with competing goals3. Individuals subjectively interpret the goals of others in conversations

Language & Culture• “It’s for the bad girls”
• “I don’t want her to think she’s protected and—I’m giving her the idea that it’s easy for her to do this—sex for a young girl.”
Sexual Activity
• “Maybe the doctor was saying we can protect from HPV with medicine. Maybe it’s different—maybe it’s same thing, HPV and HIV. It’s still something we can prevent with good behavior.”
• “I will tell her other ways you can get this. I’ll tell her you can get this from needles.”
HPV & HIV
• “From what I heard it’s like a seasonal vaccine. And every time you give it…he’ll get used to it…So the more you give the more the child gets immune to it and it won’t help anything.”
• “I’m not doing the vaccine for a thing that…to be honest it’s like the flu…And my daughter doesn’t have to get it [HPV]. She can make good decisions for health and not get it.”
OPTIONAL =
UNNECESSARY

Parent-HCP Communication• “If I make an appointment…and the doctor says this is
what your daughter is needing—this is something that is good for her then yes, this is something I would consider. If he says this is something that is for health then of course I‘m going to consider this. But I’m not sure yet if it works.”
Uncertainty: vaccine efficacy
• “I’m not a medical person—I’m not. Some have effect and benefit and some don’t. That’s what I believe. It could be the HPV [vaccine] has a benefit but it could also have a lot of problems.”
• “My cousin was given this HPV. He’s—now he’s not talking. He goes to school but is not normal in the healthy way. I see a lot of people—they complain about this vaccine.”
Uncertainty: side
effects
![Page 19: HPV vaccine parental decision-making : The role of interpersonal and mass communication](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062411/5681672e550346895ddbd2b5/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Parent-Child Communication• “I don’t wanna tell about that one. She’s too young for that.
When they older—yah I will tell her”
• “No, I won’t tell my daughter. First of all she’s a kid. Second, she will now get the idea that my mom was giving me the immunization for the—something in terms of sexual outcome. I don’t want her to get the idea that’s what I was doing.”
Avoidance
• “I’m going to tell her this is like other immunizations that will help with preventing disease. I don’t have to talk about the other stuff. It’s not necessary when she’s so young. If it’s safe—in my idea I want to focus on good health.”
• “I’m going to tell him this is for health.—this shot is something that will prevent you from getting any infection from your wife if she is sick. But only for when you’re married.”
Framing: Health
promotion NOT STI prevention
![Page 20: HPV vaccine parental decision-making : The role of interpersonal and mass communication](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062411/5681672e550346895ddbd2b5/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
ConclusionATTITUDE TOWARD VACCINES: Generally hold favorable views about vaccines - do not necessarily extend
to HPV vaccineOMISSION likely to choose omission if they believe vaccination uptake promotes
sexual activity, but not as likely if they think vaccination promotes health.COMMUNICATION GOALS: communication preference (i.e. we don’t talk about sex) may determine
how parents frame HPV vaccine discussions with their children – vaccine promotes health
CULTURAL VALUES informs HPV vaccine decision-making and how parents talk to their children
about the vaccine – sexual activity within marriage / avoid ance

Implications for practice Target female parents
Detailed discussion about efficacy and side-effects
Contextualize threat of exposure to HPV (an STI) marriage or when an individual desires pregnancy
Frame the vaccine as a health promotion behavior versus STI prevention behavior
