In order to identify which factors predict a parturient womans intention to take up voluntary HIV testing in the antenatal clinic, 318 women were surveyed by anonymous self-completion questionnaire. The strongest predictors of intention to be tested were the perceived benefit of the test to the woman herself, her partner, and the midwife, perceived risk of HIV infection, younger age and being single and having a poor knowledge of the sexual routes of HIV transmission. Health education strategies should therefore concentrate on: (a) increasing the parturient woman's knowledge of HIV transmission which will increase accuracy of perception of risk; and (b) stressing the potential benefits of HIV testing to all antenatal attenders, particularly to those who are older and in long term relationships.
为了确定哪些因素能够预测产妇在产前诊所进行自愿艾滋病毒检测的意愿，通过匿名自填问卷对318名妇女进行了调查。检测意愿的最强预测因素包括：产妇认为检测对自己、伴侣和助产士的益处；感知到的艾滋病毒感染风险；年轻、单身以及对艾滋病毒性传播途径了解不足。因此，健康教育策略应集中于：(a) 增加产妇对艾滋病毒传播的了解，这将提高对风险感知的准确性；(b) 向所有产前就诊者强调艾滋病毒检测的潜在益处，特别是对年龄较大且处于长期关系中的人。
