Σύνοψη	The WHO Vaccination Confidence Scale (VCS) is a multi-domain instrument measuring three conceptually distinct dimensions of vaccine hesitancy: Confidence (trust in vaccine safety and effectiveness), Complacency (perceived need for vaccination), and Convenience (accessibility and practical barriers). Developed by the WHO SAGE Working Group on Vaccine Hesitancy in 2015, it has become the international standard for measuring determinants of vaccination decisions across diverse populations and pathogen contexts.	The Health Protective Behavior Scale (HPBS) assesses self-reported engagement in preventive behaviors during infectious disease outbreaks, including hand hygiene, respiratory etiquette, isolation, and vaccination. Developed from literature review and behavioral theory by Bish and Michie, and refined through implementation research by Conner and colleagues, it measures adherence to public health guidance. The HPBS is widely used in pandemic surveillance research and behavioral intervention trials to track population adoption of protective measures.
