This study proposes a conceptual framework explaining how individual motivators (self-interest and collective interest) influence vaccination attitudes, mediated by institutional trust and moderated by gender. Using an online survey of Israelis (N=464), the study found a positive direct effect of collective interest and a negative effect of self-interest on vaccination attitudes. Institutional trust mediated these effects, and gender moderated the mediating effect of institutional trust, with females showing a stronger impact of trust on vaccine acceptance.
