BENAVIDES CABUYA, Héctor Julio et al. Acceptability of strategies for human papillomavirus vaccination: A systematic review. Suma Psicol. [online]. 2020, vol.27, n.2, pp.125-141. ISSN 0121-4381.  https://doi.org/10.14349/sumapsi.2020.v27.n2.7.

Cervical cancer is the fourth leading cause of cancer in women, with the human papillomavirus (HPV) being its major risk factor. This virus also produces other types of cancer and infections that affect men and women. The HPV vaccine has shown efficacy and safety in its prevention, however, barriers have been evident that decrease its acceptance in communities. The objective of this study is to identify the most effective strategies in community intervention to improve the acceptability of HPV vaccination. A systematic review was conducted in Cochrane, Scopus, Embase, Medline, and Google Scholar from June to July 2019, without time constraints, in English and Spanish. We included clinical trials evaluating strategies to improve HPV vaccination. We reviewed 22 studies evaluating community intervention strategies, and identified mainly three: the use of virtual information and training, involvement of parents and/or caregivers as well as health personnel, and involvement of men and people of diverse sexual orientation as a target population.

Palabras clave : Human papillomavirus; HPV; vaccination; cervical cancer; communitarian intervention; anti-vaccine movement.
