Objetivo: o estudo examinou disposições atitudinais e crenças culturais como correlatos da aceitação da vacina contra a covid-19 por populações-chave em três estados da Nigéria. Método: o estudo teve como alvo populações-chave (profissionais de saúde) selecionadas entre três governos locais de cada um dos três estados envolvidos no estudo. Foi adotado um delineamento de pesquisa do tipo survey correlacional, utilizando questionário como instrumento para coleta de dados. O estudo testou três hipóteses com nível de significância de 0,05 e respondeu a uma pergunta de pesquisa. Resultados: os resultados revelam que as disposições atitudinais determinam a aceitação das vacinas contra a covid-19 entre populações-chave (agentes de saúde) em três estados da Nigéria; as crenças culturais tendem a determinar a aceitação das vacinas contra a covid-19 entre populações chave (agentes de saúde) em três estados da Nigéria; as disposições atitudinais e as crenças culturais contribuem significativamente para a aceitação da vacina contra a covid-19; e também os dois fatores, disposições atitudinais e crenças culturais, conjuntamente preveem ou determinam significativamente a aceitação da vacina contra a
covid-19 por populações-chave (agentes de saúde) em três estados da Nigéria. As populações-chave (profissionais de saúde) indicaram aceitação da vacina contra a covid-19; no entanto, existem alguns impedimentos, incluindo informações inadequadas sobre a vacina, longa distância do local de vacinação e risco de infecção muito baixo. Conclusão: o estudo recomendou, com base nos resultados, que haja esforços direcionados para abordar esses impedimentos. Fornecer informações abrangentes e acessíveis sobre a vacina é crucial, pois pode ajudar a dissipar equívocos e aumentar a confiança entre os profissionais de saúde.
