Vaccination Games with Peer Effects in a Heterogeneous Hospital Worker Population
We develop a game theoretic model to analyze the Nash equilibrium of vaccine decisions in a hospital population with heterogeneous contacts. We use the model in conjunction with person-to-person contact data within a large university hospital. We simulate, using agent-based models, the probability of infection for various worker types in the data and use these probabilities to identify the Nash...
متن کاملA general approach for population games with application to vaccination.
Reconciling the interests of individuals with the interests of communities is a major challenge in designing and implementing health policies. In this paper, we present a technique based on a combination of mechanistic population-scale models, Markov decision process theory and game theory that facilitates the evaluation of game theoretic decisions at both individual and community scales. To il...
متن کاملDynamic equilibria of group vaccination strategies in a heterogeneous population
In this paper we present an evolutionary variational inequality model of vaccination strategies games in a population with a known vaccine coverage profile over a certain time interval. The population is considered to be heterogeneous, namely its individuals are divided into a finite number of distinct population groups, where each group has different perceptions of vaccine and disease risks. P...
متن کاملHospital health care worker (HCW) vaccination coverage after implementation of an HCW vaccination policy.
The purpose of this study was to assess knowledge, attitudes, practices, and self-reported vaccination status of HCWs at a tertiary Australian hospital, one year after implementation of a HCW vaccination policy. Two cross-sectional telephone surveys were conducted with HCWs at the hospital prior to and one year after HCW vaccination policy implementation. There was a 95% (272/287) response rate...
متن کاملPeer Prediction with Heterogeneous Tasks
Peer prediction is a method to promote contributions of information by users in settings in which there is no way to verify the quality of responses. In multitask peer prediction, the reports from users across multiple tasks are used to score contributions. This paper extends the correlated agreement (CA) multi-task peer prediction mechanism (Shnayder et al. [2016]) to allow the reports from us...
