Abstract
Background: Despite improving trends, immunization rates among U.S. preschool children are still suboptimal. It has been recently recognized that healthcare providers play a critical role in undervaccination. Despite this fact, few reliable and validated instruments to assess immunization knowledge, attitudes, and practices have been developed for use among healthcare providers. In a cross-sectional study involving groups of 38 general pediatricians, 46 subspecialty pediatricians, 11 third-year pediatric residents, and 33 first-year pediatric and family medicine residents an instrument was developed to evaluate provider knowledge, attitudes, and practices.
