Level of vaccine hesitation and type of trust. This figure shows a bar graph and 5 contingency tables that follow the scale located in the upper right section of the figure. (a) Respondents' approach to COVID-19 vaccines. (b) Distribution of vaccine hesitancy on Generalized trust. (c) Distribution of vaccine hesitancy on government trust. (d) Distribution of vaccine hesitancy on doctor trust. (e) Distribution of vaccine hesitancy on internet trust. The numbers inside the circles show the absolute frequency, the size of the circle indicates the proportion relative to the level of VH, and the color of the circle shows the value of the standardized residuals of the Chi-squared for each cell. The standardized residuals whose value is higher than 2 or lower than−2 are considered as significant differences and are highlighted with an asterisk above the circle.
