Study Summary

This trial will use an online intervention to correct misperceived social norms related to vaccine hesitancy among young adults (18-25) in order to increase uptake & reduce time to first dose of the COVID-19 vaccine.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for young adults aged 18-24 in the US who haven't had a COVID-19 vaccine and are willing to participate. They must understand English well, pass attention checks during screening, and give their consent to be part of the study.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests an online intervention giving personalized feedback based on social norms to reduce vaccine hesitancy among young adults. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive this intervention or an attention-matched control, with follow-ups over six months.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves no medical treatments but rather informational feedback, there are no direct physical side effects expected from participating in the study.

Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Vaccine Norms FeedbackExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
The participants in the treatment condition will receive personalized normative feedback (PNF) that entails correcting normative misperceptions for US young adults' vaccine uptake rates and prevalence of vaccine hesitancies (e.g., fear of side effects). Participants will be shown discrepancies between their perceived estimate of young adults' vaccination rates and actual national estimates derived from the US Census Bureau's Household Pulse Survey to highlight, in most cases, that they underestimated the vaccination norms.
Group II: Alcohol Norms FeedbackActive Control1 Intervention
Participants randomized to control will complete all measures at the same time as participants in the treatment condition, but will not receive any normative information regarding vaccines. Instead, to match for attention and provide potential benefit, those in the control condition will receive a standard dynamic norms feedback pertaining to alcohol use norms and behaviors.
