Summary

This trial tests whether an AI-powered chatbot can improve health literacy about the HPV vaccine among Japanese caregivers of unvaccinated daughters aged 12–18. Participants will either interact with the chatbot or read a standard government leaflet, then complete surveys to measure changes in knowledge and vaccination decisions. The goal is to see if a digital tool can more effectively counter misinformation than traditional written materials.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
An AI-powered chatbot delivering tailored HPV vaccination information
What this could lead to
If effective, this chatbot could become a scalable tool to counter vaccine misinformation and improve HPV vaccination rates among young girls in Japan.
What could go wrong
The trial measures knowledge and decision-making, not actual vaccination uptake. The chatbot's impact may be limited if caregivers already hold strong beliefs or lack internet access.

Show the full entry requirements

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * A nationally representative sample of female caregivers with daughters aged 12-18 who have not received any HPV vaccine. * Those who have access to a smartphone or computer with internet connectivity to interact with experiment materials (chatbot or online leaflet). * Those who provide informed consent and agree to participate in the study. Exclusion Criteria: * Those who need help reading through the participant information sheet, providing consent online, accessing experiment materials (chatbot or online leaflet), or answering surveys will be excluded. This may include people who do not have access to an online environment or people with severe cognitive impairments who cannot interact with the experiment materials. Also, those who have participated or are participating in similar studies regarding vaccination or experiments that utilize chatbots will be excluded.
