Findings:
Among knowledge, attitudes and beliefs, and recommendation, more positive attitudes and beliefs were the only factors associated with initiation and/or completion of HPV vaccination and the intention to receive HPV vaccination.
Conclusions:
More positive attitudes and beliefs need to be enhanced for HPV vaccination.
Clinical Evidence:
Changes in attitudes and beliefs can be important targets of interventions to increase HPV vaccination.
