Effectiveness of Educational Programs to Help Prevent School-Age Youth from Contracting HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus): A Review of Relevant Research

摘要

The paper reviews the research on AIDS and sex education programs. It examines the more significant studies that have evaluated the actual impact of those programs upon various outcomes, including knowledge, attitudes, skills, and sexual behaviors. The paper does not attempt to address the impact of programs upon intravenous drug use. Preferably, the review should focus primarily upon the impact of AIDS education.
