OBJECTIVE: In this study we investigated adolescent students' (13-15 years old) social representations of the vaccination against human papillomavirus (HPV) by analysing their iconographic productions of the vaccination. DESIGN: A qualitative study with workshops was set up in three volunteer schools. Student groups created a total of 27 posters about the vaccination. RESULTS: Two types of messages emerged: the first presented vaccination as a means of preventing cancer, while the second presented it as a means of promoting sexual health. CONCLUSION: The choice between using one message type or the other seemed to stem from the fact that students appropriated the subject of the workshops differently
