The problem
Intervention: Exploratory study to understand parental perspectives on HPV vaccination using Q-methodology, with the aim of informing tailored communication strategies
Who it was tested with: 29 parents of Turkish or Moroccan origin in the Netherlands with children aged 7-9 years.
Experience from people who deliver programmes: stories, case studies and lessons learned. Valuable for understanding how and why, and for spotting what to test next, but not a measure of effect.
"Q-methodology, a research technique that combines qualitative and quantitative methods to systematically study people's subjective viewpoints, was used to gain insights into parents' perspectives on HPV vaccination. 29 parents of Turkish or Moroccan origin in the Netherlands with children aged 7–9 were asked to rank 30 statements based on the Health Belief Model between April 2024 and January 2025." This exploratory approach identifies distinct perspectives that could inform intervention design but does not itself test an intervention or measure outcomes.
Small sample size (n=29) limits generalizability; exploratory design without intervention testing; does not measure actual vaccination uptake or test the effectiveness of tailored communication strategies
