The association between adolescents' knowledge and perception of HPV vaccination and parents' characteristics: A cross-sectional study
This study identified parents' characteristics related to adolescents' knowledge and perceptions regarding the HPV/HPV vaccination. Specifically, results showed that parents' educational level was associated with adolescents' knowledge and feelings about HPV and HPV vaccination. These factors in turn could play a pivotal role in a shared vaccine decision-making process between parents and their children.
