THE PERCEIVED THREAT OF HIV/AIDS BETWEEN MEN WHO HAVE SEX WITH MEN AND HETEROSEXUAL MALES by TRACI LAQUEY CLEVELAND (Under the direction of Helen M. Graf) ABSTRACT This study compared the perceived threat of HIV/AIDS and explored the sexual risky behaviors between men who have sex with men (MSM) and heterosexual males. Participants were asked to complete a 33 question survey which included 22 Likert-type scale questions developed to measure the perceived threat of HIV/AIDS, 8 dichotomous questions designed to measure sexual risk behavior and 3 demographic variables: age, sexual orientation and race. The case group consisted of 52 MSM and the control group consisted of 96 heterosexual males. No statistical significant difference was found between the perceived threat of HIV/AIDS; however, a statistical significant difference was found among sexual risky behaviors.

  • HIV / AIDS Timeline with an Emphasis on Australia &
    HIV/AIDS INFORMATION LINE 150 - 154 Albion Street Surry Hills NSW 2010 Tel: +61 (2) 9332 9700 Freecall: 1800 451 600 A HIV/AIDS TIMELINE Emphasising the Australian / New South Wales Perspective The Origins of HIV/AIDS It is generally agreed that Simian Immunodeficiency Virus (SIV) found in African primates became Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) which causes Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS). Genotyping research, comparing different types of HIV with different types of SIV, suggests that HIV has been introduced to humans on at least 12 different occasions, once each for the 12 different types of HIV-1 and HIV-2 discovered so far. HIV-1 is divided into 4 types - Groups M (main), O (outlier), N (new or non-M/O) and P. HIV-1 Group M, is by far the most easily transmitted and widespread form of HIV found today, being responsible for more than 99% of all HIV infections worldwide and it is the form of HIV usually intended when this document just refers to HIV. HIV-1 Group M is also further divided into 9 further subtypes or clades and there are also 48 recognised recombinant forms (made up of a mix from the genome of 2 or more of the 9 clades which are most likely the result of superinfection of individuals with multiple subtypes). Countries or risk groups can have different dominant subtypes. HIV-1 Groups O, N and P only occur in small numbers of people and are rare outside of Africa. HIV-2 has 8 subtypes, 2 of the subtypes are common and are called Group A and B.
