Abstract:
Individual's vaccination behaviors are influenced by factors such as values and beliefs. Applying latent class analysis (LCA) to such factors from the Longitudinal Internet Studies for the Social Sciences (LISS) panel[1], Matthijssen et al.[2] identified 12 distinct COVID-19 vaccination decision-making profiles in a sample of 2,567 Dutch adults. However, the extent to which membership in these profiles can be predicted using sociodemographic administrative data remains unknown. We assessed that by linking survey data to administrative records from the Statistics Netherlands (CBS) database and employing an Explainable Boosting Machine (EBM) model. The model showed substantial predictive performance and revealed the central role of income, interacting with other variables, in predicting profile membership.
