Measuring the 7Cs of Vaccination Readiness

Mattis Geiger et al.

Summary: Vaccination readiness varies among individuals, and researchers have developed a questionnaire to measure the components of readiness. The questionnaire was revised to improve its validity, and two new components were added: compliance and conspiracy. The revised 7C scale was validated and found to explain a significant amount of variance in willingness to vaccinate against COVID-19. The instrument is publicly available in multiple languages, and collaboration is sought for translations.

Motivational Factors to Receive the COVID-19 Vaccine in the United Arab Emirates: A Cross-Sectional Study

Gabriel Andrade et al.

Summary: The United Arab Emirates has achieved great success in its COVID-19 vaccination campaign, with vaccine hesitancy not being a major concern. The motivations for residents in the UAE to receive the vaccine vary, with nationality playing a predictive role in motivation. South Asian expatriates showed the lowest motivation based on intrinsic health reasons, followed by expatriates from Arab countries, Emiratis, and expatriates from the rest of the world. The same nationality pattern was observed in vaccine readiness and vaccine knowledge. No significant difference across nationalities was observed regarding vaccine conspiracy beliefs, and this variable only weakly negatively correlated with motivations to receive the vaccine.

The 7C vaccination readiness scale was found to be useful for measuring acceptance, with social norms being the strongest predictor.
