Behavioural Science And Vaccination
There is much to be drawn from the behavioural sciences to understand and promote vaccine confidence and uptake during the COVID-19 pandemic:
- Factors affecting healthcare worker COVID-19 vaccination acceptance and uptake: a living behavioural science evidence synthesis (Crawshaw et al, v3, Jun 18th, 2021)
- Behavioural determinants of COVID-19 vaccination acceptance among healthcare workers: a rapid review (Crawshaw et al., 2022, Public Health)
- Factors affecting COVID-19 vaccination acceptance and uptake among the general public: a living behavioural science evidence synthesis (Crawshaw et al., v5, Aug 31st, 2021)
