Develop, implement and evaluate the effectiveness of a peer-led education program related to HIV/AIDS among university students.
randomized controlled trial with 276 university students at Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences University Putra Malaysia (UPM), Serdang in 2011.
A peer-led education program on HIV prevention by university students.
differences in knowledge, attitude and risk behavior practices related to HIV between baselines, immediate follow-up after intervention and after three months.
Significant improvement in sound knowledge in the intervention group as compared to the control group (Odds ratio, 1.75; 95% CI 1.01, 3.00; p=0.04) and improvement in good attitude related to HIV (Odds ratio 2.22; 95% CI 1.37, 3.61; p=0.01). The odds of high substance risk behavior was significantly reduced in the intervention group as compared to the control group (Odds ratio 0.07; 95% CI 0.02, 0.34; p=0.01). The association between good knowledge and intervention was modified by the different time points (baseline, immediately after intervention and 3 months after intervention), ethnicity and gender.
Peer-led education program in HIV prevention improves knowledge, attitude and substance risk behavior. Changes in sexual risk behavior may require a longer follow-up.
开发、实施并评估一项针对大学生的艾滋病相关的同伴教育计划的效果。
2011 年在马来西亚博特拉大学（UPM）赛城医学与健康科学学院对 276 名大学生进行的随机对照试验。
大学生主导的艾滋病预防同伴教育计划。
基线、干预后即刻以及干预后三个月时与艾滋病相关的知识、态度和风险行为实践方面的差异。
与对照组相比，干预组在正确知识方面有显著改善（优势比，1.75；95%置信区间，1.01，3.00；p=0.04），并且与艾滋病相关的良好态度也有所改善（优势比，2.22；95%置信区间，1.37，3.61；p=0.01）。与对照组相比，干预组高度物质风险行为的几率显著降低（优势比，0.07；95%置信区间，0.02，0.34；p=0.01）。良好知识与干预之间的关联受到不同时间点（基线、干预后即刻以及干预后 3 个月）、种族和性别因素的影响。
艾滋病预防中的同伴教育计划可提高知识、态度和物质风险行为。性风险行为的变化可能需要更长的随访时间。
