AIDS beliefs in young women: are they related to AIDS risk-reduction behavior?
Little is known about the relationship between AIDS beliefs and AIDS risk-reduction behavior, especially in young heterosexual adults. This study explores young women's beliefs and behavior regarding AIDS. The results of this exploratory study indicate that college women generally see AIDS as serious, do not see themselves as susceptible, and are uncertain if AIDS beliefs influence their contraceptive behavior. Higher susceptibility scores are consistently correlated with AIDS risk-reduction behavior, and women who believe that AIDS affects their contraceptive use are more likely to use condoms. Implications for practice and strategies to increase susceptibility in women at risk are discussed.
