Greater Improvements in Vaccination Outcomes Among Black Young Adults With Vaccine-Resistant Attitudes in the United States South Following a Digital Health Intervention: Latent Profile Analysis of a Randomized Control Trial
Our findings revealed subgroups of Black young adults in the United States South with different vaccination attitudes, for which the TT-C intervention had differing effects. Black young adults who are vaccine-resistant or vaccine-neutral may experience larger gains from a digital vaccine intervention. Future work aimed at improving vaccination outcomes could target these populations to maximize resource efficiency and drive the greatest improvements in vaccine outcomes.
