Perceived severity of HPV-related disease	3.23 (0.75)	3.27 (0.70)	1.08 (0.78 to 1.50)	–
Perceived likelihood of getting HPV-related disease	1.74 (0.61)	2.15 (0.57)	3.07 (2.00 to 4.71)**	1.80 (1.02 to 3.17)*

The multivariate model included variables from tables 1 and 2 bivariately associated (p<0.05) with willingness to get HPV vaccine. The multivariate model did not include variables with dashes (−).
