Knowledge of AIDS, attitudes toward AIDS and condoms, and behavioral changes because of AIDS were studied in 771 students, Grades 9-12 (mean age, 16 years) who completed anonymous questionnaires in gym classes of a New York City high school. Students demonstrated good knowledge of AIDS, with some misconceptions, and significant concerns about AIDS, with some behavioral changes, but most continued to engage in high-risk behaviors. These data indicate that efforts aimed at HIV/AIDS prevention in adolescents must translate knowledge and concerns into behavioral change.
对纽约市一所高中9至12年级(平均年龄16岁)的771名学生进行了研究,了解他们对艾滋病的认识、对艾滋病和避孕套的态度以及因艾滋病而产生的行为变化。这些学生在体育课上填写了匿名问卷。学生们对艾滋病有较好的认识,但也存在一些误解,对艾滋病有重大担忧并出现了一些行为变化,但大多数人仍继续从事高风险行为。这些数据表明,针对青少年预防艾滋病毒/艾滋病的努力必须将知识和担忧转化为行为改变。
