本文利用荷兰全国样本的调查数据，考察了不同情绪反应对艾滋病患者个人接触意愿的影响。结果表明，对PWAS的三种情绪反应(恐惧、愤怒和同情)中的每一种都独立地预测了受试者是否愿意与PWAS进行个人接触。研究发现，对同性恋者的态度与对PWAS的恐惧无关，这反驳了人们通常认为的“同性恋恐惧症”和对PWAS的恐惧之间的关系。相反，这些态度与更具攻击性的情绪(激怒)有关。风险认知似乎与恐惧和愤怒的情绪有关，而责任归因似乎与怜悯负相关。
Using survey data of a Dutch national sample, the present paper examines how people's willingness to engage in personal contact with persons with AIDS (PWAs) is influenced by different emotional reactions to PWAs. Results indicate that each of the three measured emotional reactions to PWAs (fear, irritation, and pity) independently predicts subjects' readiness to have personal contact with PWAs. Disconfirming the often assumed relationship between ''homophobia'' and fear of PWAs, it was found that attitudes toward homosexuals are unrelated to fear of PWAs. Instead, these attitudes are associated with emotions of a more aggressive nature (irritation). Risk perception seems to be related to the emotions of fear and irritation, whereas responsibility attribution seems to be negatively associated with pity.
