A Chi square analysis compared the intervention with control using the primary outcome of vaccination. A secondary outcome of the perceptions of health beliefs of maternal vaccination were measured through General Linear Model/ANOVA model for repeated measures. Overall 66.9 % (89/133) were vaccinated. Both the pamphlet group 72.9 % (35/48) (χ² = 6.81, df = 1 p = .009), and the pamphlet/benefit statement group 86.1 % (31/36) (χ² = 13.74, df = 1, p |
