What this trial studies

This clinical trial aims to enhance vaccine information literacy and confidence among individuals in Southeast Asia's Nusantara sociocultural sphere by utilizing a co-created 'prebunking' video. The study involves engaging representatives from Brunei, Indonesia, Malaysia, and Singapore to develop a culturally relevant video that addresses common vaccine misinformation tactics. Participants will be randomly assigned to watch either the intervention video or a control video about safe medication disposal. The effectiveness of the intervention will be evaluated through an online randomized controlled trial.
