Methods: The participants were 246 male and 298 female studentsfrom an academic high school located in Seoul. Data were collected in June 2017, which were analyzed usingdescriptive statistics, the chi-test, t test, Mann-Whitney U test, Pearson correlation coefficients and logisticregression with SPSS for Windows 21.0.
Results: 47.6% of the male participants and 86.2% of the female participantsindicated HPV vaccination intention. The median score of the HPV knowledge level was 0 (total score:16)in the boys and 3 in the girls (p<.001). There were significant differences in attitudes and health beliefs relatedto HPV by gender. Religion (OR=0.50), sexual experience (OR=0.09), safety concerns (OR=0.65), perceivedneeds (OR=1.59), importance of prevention (OR=1.78) and perceived susceptibility (OR=1.80) determined HPVvaccination intention in the male students, whereas awareness of HVP vaccination (OR=2.25) and importanceof prevention (OR=1.92) significantly predicted HPV vaccination intention in the female students.
