负责回顾美国墨西哥移民艾滋病毒预防的研究成果文献,得出以下广泛的观察和结论:(1)针对这一专门关注主题的研究很少; (2) 现有的研究反映了一种过于个人主义的行为科学方法,旨在减少个人风险因素,很少考虑影响艾滋病毒风险的结构和环境因素; (3) 迫切需要开发更好的理论框架来理解影响墨西哥移民性行为的复杂且动态的社会和文化过程,以便更好地为这一独特且多样化的拉丁裔人口的艾滋病毒预防工作提供信息。
Charged with the task of reviewing the research outcome literature on HIV prevention with Mexican migrants in the United States, the following broad observations and conclusion were made: (1) there is little research on this specialized topic of concern; (2) the research that exists reflects an overly individualistic behavioral science approach designed to reduce individual risk factors, with little regard for structural and environmental factors that influence HIV risk; and (3) there is a compelling need to develop better theoretic frameworks for understanding the complex and dynamic social and cultural processes influencing sexual behavior among Mexican migrants so as to better inform HIV prevention efforts with this unique and diverse Latino(a) population.
