| description | Immunological awareness plays a pivotal role in promoting adherence to health instructions during public health emergencies. This study assessed the influence of specialized immunology education on compliance behaviors among higher education students. To assess the influence of specialized immunology education on compliance behaviors toward health instructions and necessary vaccines during epidemics and pandemics among higher education students. A cross-sectional survey was conducted among 532 students at King Faisal University, Saudi Arabia using stratified random sampling. A validated questionnaire examined demographics, health awareness, and specific immunological knowledge. Regression analysis was performed to assess predictors of compliance with health instructions. Considerable knowledge gaps were found around fundamental immunological concepts despite fair awareness about vaccines. Marked disparities existed across gender and academic disciplines. Regression modeling established specialized immunology training as a significant predictor of compliance with guidelines like masking and vaccination during epidemics (p |
