Factors associated with HIV counseling and testing behavior among undergraduates of universities and vocational technical training schools in Tbilisi Georgia

摘要

BackgroundStigmatizing attitude towards HIV/AIDS alongside other factors such as HIV knowledge, substance use, sexual behavior, and involvement in various social activities (e.g., internet use, exposure to media) may be related to likelihood of having HIV counseling and testing (HCT). Thus, we examined these associations among 18–24 year old post-secondary school students in Tbilisi, Georgia.
