由于获得性免疫缺陷综合症(艾滋病)流行病在一定程度上是一种社会现象,因此,改变传播这种疾病的社会行为与开发疫苗和其他疗法一样必要。为了帮助设计、实施和评估遏制艾滋病传播的方案,有必要更好地了解传播人类免疫缺陷病毒(HIV)感染的人类行为以及这些行为发生的社会背景。为此,请美国艾滋病研究和行为社会与统计科学委员会:(1)描述对美国艾滋病毒和艾滋病传播的了解,特别注意现有信息的质量和所需的补充信息;(2)确定关键人群,并指出与他们有关的目标和任务;(3)描述行为科学和社会科学中的现有研究成果,这些研究成果应有助于规划和选择旨在控制艾滋病毒感染传播的干预措施;(4)描述旨在促进行为改变的干预措施的现有研究以及评估其有效性的方法;(5)确定在这些领域应开展的新研究。该报告的7个章节分为3个部分:了解艾滋病毒感染的传播;采取干预措施限制艾滋病毒感染的传播;以及研究和干预的障碍。还包括6份背景文件。该委员会的建议包括:对人类性行为进行基本社会和行为研究的有力方案;通过地方公共卫生当局提供避孕套和性传播疾病治疗;应要求为静脉注射毒品者提供药物治疗;试验消毒针头方案;以及在自愿基础上进行匿名艾滋病毒抗体检测并提供适当咨询。
Since the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) epidemic is partly a social phenomenon changes in the social behaviors that spread the disease are as necessary as the development of vaccines and other therapies. To help in the design implementation and evaluation of programs to curb the spread of AIDS there is a need for greater understanding of the human behaviors that transmit human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection as well as the social contexts in which these behaviors occur. Toward this end the US Committee on AIDS Research and the Behavioral Social and Statistical Sciences was asked to: 1) describe what is known about the spread of HIV and AIDS in the US with special attention to the quality of information at hand and the kind of additional information that is needed; 2) identify critical populations and indicate objectives and tasks related to them; 3) describe existing research findings in the behavioral and social sciences that should be useful in planning and choosing among interventions designed to control the spread of HIV infection; 4) describe existing research on interventions intended to facilitate behavior changes and ways to evaluate their effectiveness; and 5) identify new research that should be undertaken in these areas. The 7 chapters of the resultant report are divided into 3 parts: Understanding the Spread of HIV Infection; Intervening to Limit the Spread of HIV Infection; and Impediments to Research and Intervention. Also included are 6 background papers. Among the recommendations of the Committee are: vigorous programs of basic social and behavioral research on human sexual behavior; availability of condoms and treatment for sexually transmitted diseases through local public health authorities; drug treatment upon request for intravenous drug users; trials of sterile needle programs; and anonymous HIV antibody testing with appropriate counseling on a voluntary basis.
