Abstract
⺠We describe determinants of parents' intention to vaccinate against hepatitis B. ⺠We test whether intention is a good predictor of actual vaccination behaviour. ⺠Intention to vaccinate is determined by the attitude to hepatitis B vaccination. ⺠Attitude is associated with perceived benefits and susceptibility to hepatitis B. ⺠Intention is a significant predictor of vaccination behaviour.
