A survey of AIDS knowledge and condom-related attitudes and behaviours was conducted among 896 randomly selected men and women in and around Lae, Goroka, Mt Hagen and a rural area of Madang. While 93% of those interviewed were familiar with the disease name, only 3% demonstrated adequate knowledge of modes of transmission and prevention. Condom acceptance, in theory, appears high, but must be strongly promoted for substantial change in usage patterns to be acquired.
在莱城、戈罗卡、哈根山以及马当一个农村地区，对896名随机抽取的男性和女性进行了关于艾滋病知识以及与避孕套相关的态度和行为的调查。虽然93%的受访者熟悉该病名称，但只有3%的人对传播方式和预防措施有足够了解。理论上避孕套接受度似乎较高，但必须大力推广，才能使使用模式发生实质性改变。
