A chi-squared test was used to examine the characteristics between athletic and non-athletic students based on their answers. A total of 261 students (51.9%) answered that they did not want to receive the vaccine, while willingness to accept the vaccine was significantly greater among non-athletic( 56.5%) as compared to athletic (43.6%) students. That finding might have been due the necessities of vaccitinization for other viruses such as rubella and measles, causing them miss taking an important examination to acquire a registered dietitian certificate. Consciousness of accepting other viral vaccines might be related to acceptance of receiving the novel influenza A( H1N1) vaccine. In addition, our results suggest that non-athletic students have a higher level of consciousness of being willing to receive both the new influenza A( H1N1) vaccine and seasonal influenza vaccine. The athletic students in our study showed a higher level of willingness to receive the seasonal influenza vaccine, which may contribute to preventing seasonal influenza from spreading among athletes. Individuals not willing to receive the novel influenza A( H1N1) vaccine should clearly understand that they do not have substantial cross tolerance from receiving the seasonal influenza vaccination. Students in both groups showed a favorable attitude in 2009 for the H1N1 vaccination, though further study is needed.}, pages = {29--35}, title = {Willingness to accept novel H1N1 influenza A vaccine by Japanese athletic and non-athletic students in 2009}, volume = {2}, year = {2011}, yomi = {タナカ, シゲヒロ} }
