Table 1 shows the number and percentage (in parentheses) of participants in each cluster, as a function of gender, age, educational level, religious affiliation, and income. Figures with the same exponent in each column are significantly different, p < .05. For example, in the second column,

a

= significantly higher number of older people in the Never Vaccinate cluster than of younger people. Clusters differed significantly as a function of age, educational level, religious affiliation, and income.
