Abstract

Objective

To develop and validate a survey aimed at epidemiologists to measure factors associated with vaccine reluctance.

Method

Vaccination hesitancy refers to delayed acceptance or refusal of vaccination despite the availability of vaccination services. WHO included vaccination hesitancy among the 10 global health threats in 2019. Within this conceptual framework proposed by WHO, a committee of six experts from the Spanish Society of Epidemiology (SEE) designed a self-administered questionnaire to study factors associated with vaccination hesitancy in epidemiologists. This questionnaire was approved by the SEE Board, and was sent online to all members in 2019. Based on the responses obtained, the following characteristics were validated: face validity, internal validity, construct validity, criterion validity, reliability, as well as the characteristic curves of each item and the information function per item and overall.

Results

The final questionnaire showed two well-defined components, perception of vaccines and confidence in the transparency of vaccine data with high degrees of fit in all aspects of validation. Both components have shown that the higher the reluctance to vaccinate the better the questionnaire reports on these aspects.

Conclusions

The study has allowed the development of a validated instrument in Spanish to measure the factors associated with vaccine reluctance among epidemiologists.

西班牙流行病学学会疫苗和不愿接种疫苗问卷的验证

目的开发和验证一项针对流行病学家的调查，以衡量与疫苗不情愿相关的因素。方法疫苗接种犹豫是指尽管有疫苗接种服务，但延迟接受或拒绝接种疫苗。世界卫生组织将疫苗接种犹豫列为2019年全球10大健康威胁之一。在世界卫生组织提出的这一概念框架内，西班牙流行病学学会（SEE）的一个由六名专家组成的委员会设计了一份自填问卷，以研究流行病学家中与疫苗接种犹豫有关的因素。该问卷已获得SEE董事会批准，并于2019年在线发送给所有成员。基于获得的回答，验证了以下特征：面孔有效性、内部有效性、结构有效性、标准有效性、可靠性，以及每个项目的特征曲线和每个项目和整体的信息函数。结果最终问卷显示了两个明确的组成部分，即对疫苗的感知和对疫苗数据透明度的信心，在验证的各个方面都具有高度的拟合度。这两个组成部分都表明，不愿接种疫苗的人越高，问卷对这些方面的报告就越好。结论该研究开发了一种经验证的西班牙语仪器，用于测量流行病学家不愿接种疫苗的相关因素。
