艾滋病毒检测是艾滋病毒预防和治疗的门户。然而，人们对加勒比男子艾滋病毒检测的相关性知之甚少。安德森行为模型被用来检查与艾滋病毒检测相关的因素，这些因素涉及参与2012年在海地进行的人口与健康调查的7,354名男性。很少有男子（35%）报告曾接受过艾滋病毒检测。Logistic回归分析显示，艾滋病毒检测随着教育和财富的增加而增加。婚姻状况与HIV检测相关，已婚男性比未婚男性更有可能接受检测（aOR：2.57，95%CI：2.07-3.19）。对艾滋病毒感染者的积极态度，即愿意照顾感染艾滋病毒/艾滋病的亲属，也与接受检测的几率较高相关（aOR：1.28，95%CI：1.08-1.51）。在最近一次性行为中报告使用避孕套的男性更有可能接受检测（OR：1.58，95% CI：1.33-1.88）。调查结果表明，海地男子的艾滋病毒检测率仍然很低，需要作出更多努力，增加未婚、受教育程度低和进行无保护性行为的男子的艾滋病毒检测。
HIV testing serves as the gateway to HIV prevention and treatment. However, little is known about the correlates of HIV testing among men in the Caribbean. The Anderson Behavioral Model was used to examine factors associated with HIV testing among 7,354 men who participated in the 2012 Demographic and Health Survey conducted in Haiti. Few men (35%) reported having ever been tested for HIV. Logistic regression analyses revealed that HIV testing increased with education and wealth. Marital status was associated with HIV testing, with married men more likely to have been tested (aOR: 2.57, 95% CI: 2.07–3.19) than unmarried men. Positive attitudes towards people living with HIV, indicated by willing to care for a relative who has HIV/AIDS, was also correlated with higher odds of having been tested (aOR: 1.28, 95% CI: 1.08–1.51). Men who reported condom use during last sex were more likely to have been tested (OR: 1.58, 95% CI: 1.33–1.88). The findings indicate that HIV testing rates remain low among men in Haiti and more efforts are needed to increase HIV testing among men who are not married, have low level of education, and engage in unprotected sex.
