Mean affluence
score was 5.49 (SD = 1.84, range 1–10). Providing a reason
was not significantly associated with ethnicity, practising
a religion or family affluence, but was associated
with religion (Table 1). Girls who were Christian or
Muslim were less likely to provide a reason than girls
from other religions or those reporting no religion.
Among individuals who provided a reason, there were
no demographic differences between those who were
under vaccinated and those who were unvaccinated.
