Investigating previous studies show that personality traits have an important role in controlling risky behaviours related to AIDS; therefore, the aim of this study is to investigate the relationship between AIDS health literacy, personality traits and mental health and controlling risky behaviours related to AIDS through self-efficacy.
The statistical population includes all the young people in western provinces of Iran, 2015. Data analysis was carried out for a sample of 756 participants (59% female).
The results show that except for the socializing trait, all the other variables are related to controlling risky behaviours. In addition, variables of health literacy related to AIDS, mental health, activity, impulsive sensation seeking and hostility have a direct relation to controlling risky behaviours. Also, the predicting behaviours can predict 62% of the variance in controlling risky behaviours related to AIDS. The analysis results show that health literacy has an indirect impact on controlling risky behaviours through self-efficacy. In other words, health literacy related to AIDS leads to controlling risky behaviours when self-efficacy is high for controlling risky behaviours.
Based on the results, it is recommended that the role of self-efficacy in controlling risky behaviours be considered as a strategy for preventing AIDS. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
既往研究表明，人格特质在控制与艾滋病相关的危险行为方面具有重要作用；因此，本研究旨在通过自我效能感来探究艾滋病健康素养、人格特质与心理健康之间的关系以及控制与艾滋病相关的危险行为。
统计总体包括2015年伊朗西部省份的所有年轻人。对756名参与者（59%为女性）的样本进行了数据分析。
结果表明，除社交特质外，所有其他变量均与控制危险行为有关。此外，与艾滋病相关的健康素养、心理健康、活力、冲动性感觉寻求和敌意等变量与控制危险行为直接相关。而且，这些预测行为能够预测与艾滋病相关的危险行为控制中62%的方差。分析结果表明，健康素养通过自我效能感对控制危险行为产生间接影响。换句话说，当控制危险行为的自我效能感较高时，与艾滋病相关的健康素养会导致对危险行为的控制。
基于研究结果，建议将自我效能感在控制危险行为中的作用作为预防艾滋病的一项策略。版权所有© 2016约翰·威利父子有限公司。
