In July-August 1992, a directory was made of research projects on socio-behavioural aspects of HIV infection and AIDS in Zimbabwe. A total of 92 research projects were identified, most of which were already completed. Whilst there was a wide variety of topics, populations and geographical areas covered, there was a strong bias towards AIDS awareness and knowledge, attitudes and practices (KAP) studies. Many of these were not linked with any specific AIDS prevention programme or with policy making. Suggestions are given to make better use of existing scientific information. A call is made upon researchers to conduct action-oriented studies and to consult HIV/AIDS programme implementers when specifying 'researchable' problems, so as to increase the likelihood that the study results will indeed have an impact on policy making and programme implementation.
1992年7月至8月，编制了一份关于津巴布韦艾滋病毒感染和艾滋病社会行为方面研究项目的目录。共确定了92个研究项目，其中大部分已经完成。虽然涵盖的主题、人群和地理区域多种多样，但对艾滋病意识和知识、态度及行为（KAP）研究存在强烈偏向。其中许多研究与任何具体的艾滋病预防计划或政策制定都没有关联。文中给出了更好利用现有科学信息的建议。呼吁研究人员开展以行动为导向的研究，并在确定“可研究”问题时咨询艾滋病毒/艾滋病项目实施者，以便提高研究结果确实对政策制定和项目实施产生影响的可能性。
