确定导致性风险行为的因素对于解决撒哈拉以南非洲的艾滋病毒流行至关重要。学者们主要依靠传统的SES（收入、财富和教育）指标来预测风险，忽视了住房、医疗和食品支出等重要社会领域的剥夺指标。研究结果表明，所有三个剥夺措施，特别是住房和医疗保健，是强大的性风险的影响，即使控制传统的SES措施。一个多方面的剥夺框架似乎对制定有效的政策干预措施以减少艾滋病毒感染至关重要。(C)2011爱思唯尔有限公司保留所有权利。
Identifying the factors that lead to sexual risk behavior is crucial in addressing the HIV epidemic in sub-Saharan Africa. Scholars have primarily relied on traditional measures of SES (income, wealth, and education) to predict risk, overlooking measures of deprivation in important social arenas such as housing, medical care, and food expenses. Findings demonstrated that all three deprivation measures, particularly housing and health care, were robust influences of sexual risk even while controlling for traditional SES measures. A multifaceted deprivation framework appears crucial to the development of effective policy interventions to diminish HIV infection. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
