非裔美国妇女感染艾滋病毒的比率超过白人妇女，40岁以上的非裔美国成年人中艾滋病毒/艾滋病的流行率正在不成比例地上升。我们回顾了1987至2003年间有关中年非裔美国女性艾滋病病毒传播的预防和冒险行为的数据。对相关数据库的搜索显示，有四份报告专门针对40-65岁的非裔美国女性。包括这一人口在内的五份报告还包括男子和其他族裔/种族群体。内容分析显示，与HIV风险相关的因素包括社会经济因素、知识、感知到的脆弱性、性自信和冒险行为。研究结果表明，对社会文化变量和个人因素之间的关系的进一步研究可能解释中年非裔美国女性的预防和冒险行为。(C)2005年威利期刊公司。
HIV occurs among African American women at rates exceeding those among White women, and the Prevalence of HIV/AIDS is rising disproportionately among African American adults over 40. The literature between 1987 and 2003 was reviewed for data on prevention and risk taking behavior regarding HIV transmission among midlife African American women. A search of relevant databases revealed four reports specifically targeting African American women aged 40-65. Five reports including this population also included men and other ethnic/racial groups. Content analysis revealed that factors related to risk for HIV included socioeconomic factors, knowledge, perceived vulnerability, sexual assertiveness, and risk taking behavior. Findings suggest that further research on the relationships between sociocultural variables and individual factors may explain prevention and risk taking behaviors in midlife African American women.
