  1. Notes: Effects coded variables used for protection duration, serious side effects, and age at vaccination; Normal distribution for random coefficients used on all attributes; Number of observations = 7938 (i.e. 294 respondents completed 9 choice sets containing 3 response options each).
  2. a***Denotes p < .01; bWhen looking at an HPV vaccination that generates a 50%, 70% or 90% protection rate, the coefficient should be multiplied five, seven or nine times; cThe value of the omitted term equals the negative sum of the coefficients.
