Tóm tắt :

45 p. This publication provides a succinct summary of the main conclusions reached during a meeting convened to assess the psychosocial aspects of HIV infection and AIDS in Europe, and to consider the importance of behavioural factors in planning programmes for prevention and control. Discussions and conclusions are summarized under four main headings. These cover the uses of social and behavioural research, the monitoring and evaluation of educational campaigns, the selection of target groups, and measures needed to sustain public interest and counter denial. Key points include the need to focus on risk behaviours rather than risk groups, the reasons why fear-arousing media campaigns may be counterproductive, and the value of using local, as opposed to national, surveys to gather information on risk-related attitudes, behaviours and practices. This report will be a useful and encouraging review for decision-makers, managers of national AIDS programmes, professionals in the health, educational and related sectors, and the public.
