Abstract
This study was conducted to determine the factors affecting influenza vaccination practices among university students, specially influenza vaccination encouragement and perception of preventability. Questionnaires were distributed to 300 college students from April 30, 2018 to November 30, 2018 and of these, 239 answered the questionnaires were used for analysis. Over the past year, 36.8% of the students were vaccinated against influenza. Encouraging people to get vaccinated was a significant factor that affected the practice of influenza vaccination(p<.001). However, perception of preventability was not significant(p=.853). This study is expected to be an effective guide in developing influenza vaccination programs that encourage vaccination in order to increase the vaccination rate.
