The effectiveness of education in reducing high-risk human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) transmission behaviors was examined in 313 injection drug users. Involvement in high-risk behaviors was assessed via structured interview at study entry and 4 months following the intervention. Subjects were randomly assigned to (1) AIDS education, (2) AIDS education with optional HIV antibody testing, or (3) a wait list. The sample as a whole decreased its involvement in high-risk behaviors, but there were no significant differences as a function of experimental group assignment.
在313名注射吸毒者中检验了教育在减少高危人类免疫缺陷病毒(HIV)传播行为方面的有效性。通过在研究开始时和干预后4个月进行的结构化访谈来评估参与高危行为的情况。受试者被随机分配到(1)艾滋病教育组,(2)可选择进行HIV抗体检测的艾滋病教育组,或(3)候补名单组。总体样本减少了其对高危行为的参与,但根据实验组分配情况没有显著差异。
