Objectives : This study aimed investigate general characteristics, vaccination status and health beliefs related to vaccination for herpes zoster and to identify variables. Methods : The structured questionnaire was conducted from March 31, 2016 to April 20, 2016 with 312 outpatients who visited a university hospital. The data were analyzed by frequency analysis, t-test, χ²-test, correlation analysis and logistic regression analysis via SPSS statistics 22.0. Results : The vaccination rate of the herpes zoster was 16.0% and the vaccination cost was the most common reason for rejecting inoculation. More highly educated people with more than a university degree(OR=4.28, p=.002), those with higher susceptibility to herpes zoster(OR=1.56, p=.000), those more aware of the benefits of vaccination(OR=1.51, p=.009) and those with lower disability for vaccination(OR=0.74, p=.003) were more likely to be vaccinated. Conclusions : Therefore, to increase the vaccination rate of herpes zoster in adults over 50 years old, continuous publicity and education are needed to emphasize the susceptibility of herpes zoster and the benefit of vaccination. In addition, it is necessary to develop policies at the national level for the expensive vaccination cost that obstructs vaccination.
