摘要

护士和护生对COVID-19和流感疫苗的态度对于保护弱势患者和减少普通人群的疫苗犹豫至关重要。社交媒体是传播疫苗信息的关键，除了一些社会人口和专业特征外，它还对疫苗犹豫产生相反的影响。目的了解护士和护生的疫苗犹豫特征。方法于2023年3月至9月进行多中心横断面研究。数据通过在线调查收集，以评估：(1)社会人口统计学和职业特征，以及社交媒体使用情况；（二）疫苗犹豫（用接种态度检查量表测量）；（三）社交媒体成瘾（使用卑尔根社交媒体成瘾量表）。采用k均值聚类分析确定疫苗犹豫谱。采用方差分析（ANOVA）和卡方分析（Chi-square）来确定这些剖面的关键特征。结果在604名参与者中，确定了三种特征。对不可预见的未来影响的担忧是COVID-19和流感疫苗所有资料中疫苗犹豫的最相关因素。最犹豫的主要是老年护士。在最不犹豫的人群中，流感疫苗接种率最高，他们也更多地使用YouTube、LinkedIn和Twitter/X等社交媒体平台。结论本研究为制定适合护士和护生的针对性干预措施提供了参考。这些结果将支持量身定制的疫苗接种运动，以解决疫苗犹豫的最相关因素，并提供基于证据的信息，以减轻误解，提高护士和护理专业学生的疫苗吸收。

Clustering vaccine hesitancy and social media use of nurses and nursing students: a cross-sectional study

Background

Nurses and nursing students' attitudes toward COVID-19 and Influenza vaccines are crucial for protecting vulnerable patients and reducing vaccine hesitancy in the general population. Social media is key in spreading vaccine information and it has opposite effects on vaccine hesitancy, alongside several socio-demographic and professional characteristics.

Aim

This study aims to identify the characteristics of vaccine hesitancy among nurses and nursing students.

Methods

A multi-centre, cross-sectional study was conducted between March and September 2023. Data were collected through an online survey to assess: (I) sociodemographic and occupational characteristics, and social media usage; (II) vaccine hesitancy (measured with the Vaccination Attitudes Examination Scale); (III) social media addiction (using the Bergen Social Media Addiction Scale). K-means cluster analysis was performed to identify vaccine hesitancy profiles. ANOVA and Chi-square were adopted to identify the key characteristics of the profiles.

Results

Among 604 participants, three profiles were identified. Concerns about unforeseen future effects was the most relevant factor of vaccine hesitancy across all profiles for both COVID-19 and Influenza vaccines. The most hesitant profile included mainly older nurses. Influenza vaccination uptake was the highest in the least hesitant profile, which also reported greater use of social media platforms like YouTube, LinkedIn, and Twitter/X.

Conclusion

This study provides insights to develop targeted interventions appropriate to nurses and nursing students' profiles. These results will support tailored vaccination campaigns to address the most relevant factors of vaccine hesitancy and provide evidence-based information to mitigate misconceptions and enhance vaccine uptake among nurses and nursing students.
