This study sought to understand factors associated with COVID-19 vaccine brand preferences, including Moderna, Pfizer, and Johnson and Johnson. Using a series of monthly repeated cross-sectional surveys, this study investigated whether beliefs about vaccine efficacy and perceived dangers of getting the vaccine were associated with brand-specific vaccine preferences. Using the extended parallel process model as a guiding theoretical framework, we examined how these beliefs (i.e. perceived dangerousness and effectiveness) about vaccine brands changed over time. Results indicated that preference for a specific brand was associated with the perceptions of the preferred vaccine being more effective and less dangerous but was not related to sociodemographic characteristics of the respondents. Most beliefs did not change over time except that the Johnson and Johnson vaccine was perceived as more dangerous in April and May 2021 compared to the following summer months. Findings provide theoretical implications for correcting fear-based messages during pandemics and highlight the importance of using strategic health messaging and social marketing when promoting vaccines.
本研究旨在了解与COVID-19疫苗品牌偏好相关的因素，包括Moderna、辉瑞（Pfizer）和强生（Johnson and Johnson）。通过一系列每月重复的横断面调查，本研究调查了对疫苗效力的信念和接种疫苗的感知危险是否与品牌特异性疫苗偏好有关。使用扩展平行过程模型作为指导理论框架，我们检查了这些信念（即感知的危险性和有效性）如何随着时间的推移而变化。结果表明，对特定品牌的偏好与首选疫苗更有效和危险性更低的看法有关，但与应答者的社会人口学特征无关。除了2021年4月和5月被认为比接下来的夏季月份更危险之外，大多数信念没有随着时间的推移而改变。研究结果为在大流行期间纠正基于恐惧的信息提供了理论意义，并强调了在推广疫苗时使用战略性卫生信息和社会营销的重要性。

Language plays a key role in shaping and maintaining social-category stereotypes. While past research often examined isolated linguistic features in experimenter-generated sentences, in largely independent fields, this article takes an integrative approach by focusing on how stereotypes are communicated in natural, freely generated language. As social-category stereotypes are generalized impressions, a central mechanism in linguistic stereotyping is generalization, expressed in language that generalizes across individuals, situations, and time. I first examine how generalization takes shape in communication about others, and how this results in stereotype formation in recipients. Next, I explore when people generalize in their communication, rather than specify and use more nuanced descriptions about individual, situated behavior. Together, this reveals how everyday language perpetuates stereotypes in society. In conclusion, I discuss potential future research directions.
