Abstract

The purpose of this study was to measure the HPV vaccine behaviors and intentions of college-aged men. 493 participants, who identified as "male" or "trans man", from a large university in the Mid-Atlantic were included in this study. An online survey measured several independent variables as well as variables related to HPV and HPV vaccine knowledge, perceptions, and behaviors. Descriptive statistics were used to evaluate each variable after filtering the participants by vaccination status. A binomial logistic regression was used to analyze and predict the effect of each variable on college men's vaccination status. The academic year in which participants completed the survey, home location, and HPV knowledge were significant predictors of HPV vaccination status. Lack of inclusion of males during conversations about the HPV vaccine could be the source of the differences between male and female HPV vaccination behavior and intention.
