Booster vaccination is one of health behaviors that divided into three domains: cognitive (knowledge), affective (attitudes), and psychomotor (actions). Based on the background above, the authors are interested in researching the relationship between knowledge level about vaccination and willingness to be vaccinated COVID-19 boosteramong radiographers at Jember.This type of research is a correlational analytic survey with a cross-sectional approach. Population in this research were all radiographers who are members of the Indonesian Radiographers Association (PARI) and active in Jember. The sampling method using total sampling(n=60). Data analysis in this research included editing, scoring, coding, tabulating, univariate analysis, normality test, and bivariate analysis (Rank Spearman Correlation Test) using IBM SPSS Statistics 25 software.Respondent's knowledge level about vaccination showed 46% good, 27% moderate, and 27% less. Respondent’s willingness to be vaccinated COVID-19 boostershowed 47% good, 43% moderate, and 10% less. Rank Spearman Correlation Test (Spearman Rho) showed p value or Sig.
