Comparative analyses of COVID-19 vaccine acceptance among children of different age groups.
| Sub Group | Vaccine acceptance N (Yes/No) (%) | Group-variables compared | χ 2 | p-value |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Group 1 (5–8 years) (N = 530) | 336/194 (63.40%) | Group 1 (5–8 years) vs. Group 2 (13–18 years) | 4.35 | .037* |
| Group 2 (13–18 years) (N = 471) | 328/143 (69.64%) | Group 1 (5–8 years) vs. Group 3 (9–12 years) | 34.87 | <.001* |
| Group 3 (9–12 years) (N = 541) | 431/110 (79.67%) | Group 2 (13–18 years) vs. Group 3 (9–12 years) | 13.50 | <.001* |
| Participants with ≥5 children (N = 1,542) | 1,095/447 (71.01%) | N/A |
Participants with more than one child in the family responded individually about vaccine acceptance for children of each subgroup.
*p-value <.05 was considered significant.
