Uganda (2008): Evaluating Faithfulness among Married / Cohabiting People aged 24-54. Round One.

To address this group, PSI Uganda, in collaboration with Ministry of Health (MOH), designed a comprehensive HIV prevention program to contribute to the MOH strategic objective of reducing new HIV infections by 25% through promoting safer sexual behaviors. This study aims to 1) establish current levels of risky sexual practices among married people 2) identify behavioral determinants and population characteristics associated with unfaithfulness. Study results will guide decision makers in the development of program promoting faithfulness. A nationwide cross sectional survey was conducted in March 2008. A multi stage cluster sampling approach was used to select 1960 respondents among married people aged 24-54. Data was collected through structured face to face interviews. Multivariate analyses were conducted to identify independent variables significantly associated with faithfulness. Simple f requencies and means were derived for monitoring behavior and related determinants.为针对性服务该目标人群，乌干达PSI（PSI Uganda）与卫生部（MOH）合作设计了一项综合性艾滋病病毒（HIV）预防项目，旨在通过推广安全性行为，助力卫生部达成将新增HIV感染减少25%的战略目标。本研究旨在实现两大核心目标：1）明确已婚人群当前的危险性行为发生水平；2）识别与不忠行为相关的行为决定因素及人群特征。本研究结果将为决策者制定推广忠贞行为的相关项目提供指导依据。本研究于2008年3月开展了一项全国性横断面调查，采用多阶段整群抽样法，从24至54岁的已婚人群中抽取了1960名调查对象。数据通过结构化面对面访谈方式采集，研究开展多变量分析以识别与忠贞行为显著相关的自变量，并计算简单频数与均值，用于监测行为及其相关决定因素。
