Ineffectiveness of AIDS education and HIV antibody testing in reducing high-risk behaviors among injection drug users.

D A Calsyn1, A J Saxon, G Freeman, S Whittaker.   

Abstract

The effectiveness of education in reducing high-risk human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) transmission behaviors was examined in 313 injection drug users. Involvement in high-risk behaviors was assessed via structured interview at study entry and 4 months following the intervention. Subjects were randomly assigned to (1) AIDS education, (2) AIDS education with optional HIV antibody testing, or (3) a wait list. The sample as a whole decreased its involvement in high-risk behaviors, but there were no significant differences as a function of experimental group assignment.
