1.Study excerpt: Mansfield et al. (2018) conducted a correlational study to examine the association between parental knowledge of human papillomavirus (HPV) and their intentions to have their daughters vaccinated. "This study used HINTS [Health Information National Trends Survey] 2006-2007 because it was the only data set that assessed the outcome variable, intention to vaccinate for HPV...HINTS's probability-based sample design used a random digit dialing to conduct telephone surveys and a nationwide address list to administer surveys via mail. A sub-sampling screening tool, Westat's Telephone Research Center (TRC), was used to identify working residential numbers. A total of 3,767 telephone interviews were then completed, and 325 were partially completed (n=3,582); 3,473 mail surveys were completed and 109 were partially completed (n=3,582). The final total sample was 7,674 participants."
