The purpose of study will be to test two vaccine education strategies to learn how they
impact flu and pertussis (Tdap) vaccination rates and attitudes regarding vaccination during
pregnancy after participating in the intervention. The education strategies will be based
on the elaboration likelihood model (ELM). This model is based on experimental psychology
and has been previously used to increase breast cancer screening rates. These education
strategies will be delivered through routine prenatal care visits to black/African-American
women in Atlanta.
