This study indicates that the positive and negative effects of word-of-mouth (WOM) have an impact and moderating effect on vaccine uptake willingness, which is important to exploring the factors that affect vaccine uptake. We further analyzed the differences in the impact relationship between variables through questionnaire research. Based on the Health Belief Model (HBM) widely used to explore global health issues, this study focuses on Taiwanese residents and uses a questionnaire survey method. Furthermore, this study investigates the impact of various factors in the HBM on the willingness to receive the COVID-19 vaccine when faced with positive and negative word-of-mouth evaluations from the perspective of vaccine recipients, as well as whether WOM evaluations have an interference effect, along with the differences between variables. Practical recommendations are provided based on the research results, which can serve as a reference for future vaccine promotion programs and health promotion. By improving the national vaccination rate and achieving herd immunity, we aim to increase the persuasiveness of word-of-mouth on public healthcare decision-making. We also hope to provide a basis for health promotion and encourage people to make informed decisions about vaccination. |
