    Author: Reynolds D, O'Connell KA.
    Journal: J Pediatr Nurs; 2012 Dec; 27(6):614-25. PubMed ID: 22020360.
    Abstract:
    Gardasil is the first vaccine developed to prevent cervical cancer and other diseases caused by certain types of genital human papillomavirus in females, but little is known about parental acceptance of this vaccine. The purpose of this study was to test a model that predicts intention to vaccinate that includes constructs from the health belief model and the theory of reasoned action.
