Psychological antecedents of vaccine inequity: keys to improve the rates of vaccination
This study is novel in shedding light on the importance of psychological determinants as hidden causes of vaccine inequities by using a multilevel logistic regression model for COVID-19 vaccination intention. The findings suggest that targeted interventions addressing socio-demographic factors, psychological antecedents, and accessibility barriers are essential to mitigate vaccine inequity and improve vaccination rates.
