摘要

ABSTRACT 虽然已有许多研究对医护人员、高危人群或医学生的知识和实践进行了评估,但针对非医学背景的大学生的研究却寥寥无几。我们的研究旨在评估孟买地区大学生对人体免疫缺陷病毒/获得性免疫缺陷综合征(HIV/AIDS)的知识、态度和看法,并确定它们与社会人口变量之间的关联。 从 2022 年 8 月至 2022 年 10 月,对 401 名大学生进行了横向在线和离线问卷调查。采用平均分和百分比对数据进行分析。 约 82.04% 的参与者表现出对艾滋病传播和预防的良好认知,46.38% 的参与者对艾滋病持积极态度。年龄、性别、宗教信仰和教育程度对知识和态度均无明显影响。总体而言,知识得分与参与者的态度呈微弱的正相关。 我们的研究结果表明,有必要在印度青年中采取涵盖知识、心理和社会健康等方面的综合方法,以积极改变人们的行为,实现艾滋病预防和管理目标,从而使整个公众健康受益。

Exploring factors influencing the perspective regarding HIV transmission and prevention among college students in India
ABSTRACT Although many studies have been conducted to assess the knowledge and practices among healthcare workers, high-risk groups or medical students, very few studies have been conducted among college students from non-medical backgrounds. Our study aimed to assess the knowledge, attitudes and perception about human immunodeficiency virus/acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (HIV/AIDS) among the college students of the Mumbai region and to determine their association with the socio-demographic variables. A cross-sectional online and offline questionnaire survey was conducted among 401 college students from the month of August 2022 to October 2022. Mean score and percentage were used to analyse the data. About 82.04% of participants exhibited good knowledge about HIV transmission and prevention, while 46.38% had a positive attitude towards HIV. Age, gender, religion and education had not influenced either knowledge or attitude significantly. Overall, knowledge score had a weak positive correlation with attitude of the participants. Our study findings indicate that a holistic approach covering knowledge, psychological and societal health aspects is necessary among youth in India for positive changes in people’s behaviour and achieving HIV prevention and management goals which will benefit public health at large.
