摘要：The COVID-19 vaccination program in Malaysia is an effort launched by the Malaysian government as a means of containing the spread of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) and ending the outbreak in Malaysia by developing herd immunity among its citizens and non-citizen. A major effort will be required from health agencies, non-governmental organizations, industries, national and also state governments. In some states, low vaccination rates have resulted in outbreaks of Covid-19, while also impeding the government’s efforts to achieve its aim. The goal of this study is to establish the antecedents of Covid-19 vaccination acceptability in which to establish the data’s reliability and validity, a two-stage pilot study was conducted. Several antecedents were identified and examined and analysed using SPSS software. Findings of study in first stage postulated the items were validated and the elimination of more than 20% items indicated that item validity had been violated. Meanwhile, the second pilot tests produced high internal consistency of above 0.7 of the minimal value for cronbach alpha after further improvement. In summary, this paper validated the measurement of research variables and not all items can be used in examining the vaccine readiness in Malaysia context of study. The actual data will use the item validation based on this pilot study.
