本研究旨在评估中国高中生的艾滋病相关知识、来源和感知需求。共有2668名15.17-23.42岁的高中生参与了调查。采用自填式问卷收集有关艾滋病毒/性传播感染相关知识、来源和感知信息需求的信息。结果显示，艾滋病知识知晓率分布为：低知晓率6.8%，中等知晓率29.6%，高知晓率63.7%。最重要的信息来源依次为电视/摄影记录（72.1%）、学校健康教育课程（51.8%）和阅读材料（45.7%）。大约一半的学生（46.3%）确认需要更多信息，并且87.8%的抽样高中生在遇到艾滋病相关问题时会与他人进行沟通。加强和改进信息来源，特别是其准确性和全面性，将有助于确保青少年获得所需的艾滋病毒/艾滋病健康信息。
This study aimed to assess HIV/AIDS-related knowledge, sources and perceived need among senior high school students in China. A total of 2668 senior high school students aged 15.17-23.42 years participated in the survey. A self-administered questionnaire was used to collect information on HIV/sexually transmitted infection-related knowledge, sources and perceived information need. The results showed that levels of HIV/AIDS knowledge were distributed as follows: low for 6.8%, moderate for 29.6% and high for 63.7%. The most important information sources were, in rank order, TV/photographic recording (72.1%), school heath education curriculum (51.8%) and reading materials (45.7%). About half of the students, 46.3%, confirmed a need for more information and 87.8% of the sampled senior high school students communicated with others if he/she had problems related to HIV/AIDS. Strengthening and improving information sources, particularly its accuracy and comprehensiveness, would help in ensuring that adolescents obtained the HIV/AIDS health information they needed.
