Abstract

Purpose: This study aimed to identify the actor and partner effects of human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination knowledge, health beliefs, and self-efficacy on parental intentions to vaccinate adolescent sons against HPV. Methods: The participants were 191 couples who met the eligibility criteria. Data were collected from June 2024 through internet communities in Gyeongsangnam Province. The actor-partner interdependence model was used to analyze the parent's actor and partner effects of HPV vaccination knowledge, health beliefs, and self-efficacy on parents' intentions to vaccinate their adolescent sons against HPV. Results: The actor effects of fathers' intentions to vaccinate their adolescent sons against HPV were perceived benefits and self-efficacy; however, the partner effect was not significant. The actor effects of mothers' intentions to vaccinate their adolescent sons against HPV were perceived susceptibility, perceived severity, perceived benefits, and self-efficacy, and the partner effects were fathers' perceived severity and benefits. Conclusion: This study indicates that fathers' intentions to vaccinate their adolescent sons against HPV may play an essential role in increasing HPV vaccination rates among adolescent sons.
