通过对西南地区不同类型商业性场所招募的 1,022 名女性性工作者 (FSW) 进行横断面调查，我们考察了她们的互联网使用行为，并探讨了基于互联网的 HIV/STI 干预对该人群的可行性。大约 75% 的 FSW 是互联网用户；其中57%是经常使用的人，40%曾在网上搜索过HIV/STI信息。互联网使用与互联网用户年龄较小、受教育程度较高、收入较高以及参与社交网络显着相关。频繁使用互联网仅与社会环境因素相关，例如同龄人的互联网使用情况。三分之二的使用互联网的女性工作者愿意参与在线艾滋病毒/性传播感染预防计划。多变量分析表明，参与在线艾滋病毒/性传播感染预防干预的意愿与较高的互联网使用率和较低的年龄显着相关。我们的数据表明，互联网可能提供一种有前途的策略，为中国的 FSW 提供低成本的艾滋病毒/性传播感染预防项目。
Based on a cross-sectional survey with 1,022 female sex workers (FSWs) recruited from different types of commercial sex venues in Southwest China, we examined their Internet-using behaviors and explored the feasibility of Internet-based HIV/STI intervention in this population. About 75% of FSWs were Internet users; among them 57% were frequent users, and 40% had searched HIV/STI information online. Internet use was significantly associated with younger age, more schooling, higher income, and engagement in a social network of Internet users. Frequent use of the Internet was associated only with factors of the social environment, such as peers’ Internet use. Two thirds of Internet-using FSWs were willing to participate in an online HIV/STI prevention program. Multivariate analyses showed that willingness to participate in an online HIV/STI prevention intervention was significantly associated with higher Internet use and younger age. Our data suggest that Internet may offer a promising strategy to deliver low-cost HIV/STI prevention programs for FSWs in China.
