This paper assesses the factors related to self perception of developing AIDS among a group of 1,568 Puerto Rican injection drug users (IDUs). Incarceration history, years of drug injection, sharing needles, renting and borrowing needles, sharing rinse water or cooker, and having an IDU sex partner yielded a moderate association with HIV/AIDS risk perception. Use of sterile needles, shooting drugs alone, having had previous treatment episodes, and all the variables related to health status were also moderately associated with HIV/AIDS risk perception. A logistic regression model based on backwards elimination procedure, which included statistically significant variables in the bivariate analyses, yielded the variables living with children, sex with an IDU partner, shooting drugs alone, perception of health, having had a sexually transmitted disease, and results of HIV testing as statistically significant (p < 0.05).
本文评估了1568名波多黎各注射吸毒者（IDU）中与艾滋病自我认知相关的因素。监禁史、注射毒品年限、共用针头、租借针头、共用冲洗水或烹饪器具以及有注射吸毒者性伴侣与艾滋病毒/艾滋病风险认知呈中度关联。使用无菌针头、独自注射毒品、曾有过治疗经历以及所有与健康状况相关的变量也与艾滋病毒/艾滋病风险认知呈中度关联。基于向后排除程序的逻辑回归模型纳入了双变量分析中具有统计学意义的变量，结果显示与子女同住、与注射吸毒者性伴侣发生性行为、独自注射毒品、健康认知、曾患性传播疾病以及艾滋病毒检测结果具有统计学意义（p < 0.05）。
