The objective is to compare students who were immunized or not immunized during the 1997
Simon Fraser University measles outbreak in British Columbia.  The study is a descriptive comparative study using the Health Belief Model as a theoretical framework. A self-administered questionnaire was mailed to a stratified random sample of 400 immunized and 400 non-immunized SFU students.
