很少有艾滋病毒预防项目专门针对拉丁裔大学生。这些年轻女性可能有感染艾滋病毒的风险，因为发展问题，规范行为，性别角色和文化信仰影响他们的性行为。SENORITAS项目（减少艾滋病/艾滋病毒和性传播感染感染所需的学生教育的首字母缩写）是一项创新计划，旨在为南佛罗里达一所城市西班牙裔服务机构的拉丁裔大学生提供服务。该项目有两个主要目标：（a）通过使用以理论为基础的单次同伴教育方案，为拉丁裔大学生提供适合年龄、性别和文化的艾滋病毒/性传播感染预防教育;（B）提高多族裔护理学生作为艾滋病毒预防教育者的能力、舒适度和技能。本文讨论了使用信息-动机-行为技能模型进行艾滋病毒预防的项目开发和设计，描述了与同伴教育者的实施情况，并总结了迄今为止的进展和未来的方向。
Few HIV prevention projects have specifically targeted Latina college students. These young women may be at risk for HIV infection because of developmental issues, normative behaviors, gender roles, and cultural beliefs that affect their sexual practices. The SENORITAS project (an acronym for Student Education Needed in Order to Reduce Infection and Transmission of AIDS/HIV and STIs [sexually transmitted infections]) is an innovative program designed for Latina college students at an urban Hispanic-serving institution in South Florida. The project has two major aims: (a) to provide age-appropriate, gender-specific, and culturally tailored HIV/STI prevention education for Latina college students through the use of a theoretically based, single-session peer education program: and (b) to improve the competence, comfort level, and skills of multiethnic nursing students as HIV prevention educators. This article discusses project development and design using the information-motivation-behavioral skill model for HIV prevention, describes implementation with peer educators, and concludes with progress to date and future directions.
