COVID-19 vaccination coverage among children remains low, and many parents report being hesitant to get their children vaccinated. This study explores factors influencing hesitancy and the facilitators that helped hesitant adopter parents choose to vaccinate their children against COVID-19 despite their hesitancy. We use a qualitative descriptive design with individual interviews ( = 20) to explore COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy and facilitators of vaccination among hesitant adopter parents. The Increasing Vaccination Model domains (thoughts and feelings, social processes, and practical issues) provided the framework for initial coding, and the research team identified nine emergent themes. Findings document the factors influencing hesitancy and the facilitators motivating COVID-19 vaccination among hesitant adopter parents. Findings fill the gap in the literature by providing hesitant adopters’ lived experience, perspectives on vaccine hesitancy, and the influential factors that helped participants overcome their hesitancy and choose to vaccinate their children against COVID-19.

使用增加疫苗接种模型探索对疫苗犹豫不决的收养父母对 COVID-19 疫苗接种的犹豫、动机和实际问题

儿童中的 COVID-19 疫苗接种覆盖率仍然很低，许多家长表示对是否让孩子接种疫苗犹豫不决。本研究探讨了影响犹豫的因素，以及帮助犹豫不决的收养父母选择为孩子接种 COVID-19 疫苗的推动因素。我们采用定性描述性设计和个人访谈 (= 20) 来探讨犹豫不决的收养父母对 COVID-19 疫苗的犹豫和疫苗接种的促进因素。增加疫苗接种模型领域（思想和感受、社会过程和实际问题）提供了初始编码的框架，研究团队确定了九个新兴主题。调查结果记录了影响犹豫的因素以及犹豫的收养父母是否愿意接种 COVID-19 疫苗的推动因素。研究结果填补了文献中的空白，提供了犹豫不决的采用者的生活经历、对疫苗犹豫的看法，以及帮助参与者克服犹豫并选择为孩子接种 COVID-19 疫苗的影响因素。
