Characteristics of persons with varying vaccination personas: data from the CDC-funded PANDEMIC project.
Article in Discover public health, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Objectives: To examine characteristics of personas related to vaccination via a multi-state survey, to better inform strategies to address vaccine hesitancy, foster trust, and promote equitable health outcomes across diverse communities. Methods: Through a CDC-funded initiative, the University of Florida coordinated and participated with eight partner institutions to increase vaccination uptake and address vaccination hesitancy through trust-building. PANDEMIC (Program to Alleviate National Disparities in Ethnic and Minority Immunizations in the Community) developed an anonymous Survey of Perceptions (SoP), which assessed community perspectives on vaccination. Associations examined persona and gender, state where the interview was conducted, rurality, race/ethnicity, COVID-19 vaccination status, and trusted sources of vaccination information. Results: From September 18, 2023, to October 3, 2024, over 5,500 participants were surveyed through the SoP to assess general viewpoints on vaccination, with five personas characterized: Enthusiast (58.6%), Watchful (21.0%), Cost-Anxious (10.0%), Skeptic (6.2%), and System Distruster (4.2%). Group comparisons were made using the Kruskal-Wallis rank sum test for continuous variables, and Chi-square tests for categorical variables to assess associations between demographic characteristics and vaccination personas. Conclusions: Understanding vaccination personas and their predictors may provide a framework for designing targeted public health interventions. By addressing the distinct concerns and motivations of each persona, public health strategies promote equitable health outcomes and increase vaccine uptake across diverse populations.
