摘要
India has the third highest number of persons living with HIV in the world. We evaluated the effectiveness of a structured teaching program on HIV-related knowledge and attitudes among 600 young women, aged 20-40years, in India. This study employed a quasi-experimental pre-post design. Significant differences were found in the level of the participants' knowledge of (t=78.89, p<.05) and attitudes toward (t=64.14, p<.05) HIV after the intervention. Our findings suggest that the structured teaching program could be utilized in increasing young women's knowledge of, and improving their attitudes about, HIV.
