摘要

摘要本研究关注的是那些将自己归类为女同性恋、男同性恋、双性恋、变性人、酷儿、双性人、无性恋和任何其他非异性恋取向（LGBTQIA+）的人，以及他们对艾滋病毒检测的总体态度。这项研究的假设是，预测变量水平较低的LGBTQIA+个体（outness和同伴开放度水平较低）对HIV检测的态度与预测变量水平较高的个体显著不同。通过配额抽样法进行了一项由三部分组成的调查，121名参与者回答了调查。结果表明，LGBTQIA+个体的外向程度与他们对HIV检测的态度之间存在统计学意义（p < 0.05），这导致了这样的结论，即outness水平可能是预测LGBTQIA+个体对HIV检测态度的指标。这项研究的发现可能有助于理解LGBTQIA+个体的心理障碍因素与对HIV检测的态度之间的关系，这可能为未来的研究和实践提供信息。

HIV testing among LGBTQIA+ individuals: the impact of outness and peer openness

ABSTRACT This study focused on individuals who classify themselves as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, intersex, asexual and any other non-heterosexual orientations (LGBTQIA+) and their general attitude towards HIV testing. The hypothesis for this study is that LGBTQIA+ individuals with lower levels of predictor variables (lower level of outness and peer openness) have significantly different attitudes towards HIV testing than those with higher levels of predictor variables. A three-part survey was passed out via quota sampling method, and 121 participants answered the survey. The result showed that there is a statistical significance between a LGBTQIA+ individual’s level of outness and their attitude towards HIV testing (p < 0.05), which leads to the conclusion that level of outness may be an indicator that predicts a LGBTQIA+ individual’s attitude towards HIV testing. Findings of this study may help understand the relationship between LGBTQIA+ individuals’ psychological barrier factors and attitudes towards HIV testing, which may inform future research and practices.
