This article describes the development and implementation of an acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) intervention program for female sex partners of male injection-drug users. Four psychoeducational workshops were designed to motivate personal risk reduction, provide participants with necessary cognitive and behavioral skills, and enhance participants' perceived ability to enact positive changes in their lives. The development of the workshop modules was guided by traditional theories of health behavior change and social learning. Also included in the intervention are referral and advocacy services, personal risk reduction counseling, and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) antibody testing. Preliminary results indicate that the program has made a significant impact on the AIDS risk of participants--91 percent of women who completed the program reported that they had made positive changes in their lives to reduce their risk of HIV infection.
本文描述了一项针对男性注射吸毒者女性性伴侣的获得性免疫缺陷综合征（艾滋病）干预项目的开展与实施情况。设计了四个心理教育工作坊，旨在激发个人降低风险的意识，为参与者提供必要的认知和行为技能，并增强参与者认为自己有能力在生活中做出积极改变的信念。工作坊模块的开发以健康行为改变和社会学习的传统理论为指导。干预措施还包括转介和宣传服务、个人降低风险咨询以及人类免疫缺陷病毒（HIV）抗体检测。初步结果表明，该项目对参与者的艾滋病风险产生了重大影响——91%完成该项目的女性报告称，她们在生活中做出了积极改变以降低感染HIV的风险。
