Is there any relationship between knowledge of HIV/AIDS prevention and transmission and safe sexual behaviour?

0

The case of young people in Botswana Gobopamang Letamo, University of Botswana This article investigated the extent to which young people knew the facts about HIV/AIDS, its prevention, and transmission modes, sources of HIV/AIDS information, people with whom they discuss HIV/AIDS issues, and whether the acquired knowledge translated into positive sexual behaviours. This research used a nationally representative sample of the Botswana AIDS Impact Survey conducted in 2004. Both bivariate and logistic regression analyses were used to investigate the topic. The findings showed that HIV/AIDS knowledge levels were fairly high, though young people still harboured various misconceptions about HIV prevention and transmission. The study concludes that correct knowledge of HIV/AIDS does not necessarily translate into safe sex behaviour.
