Abstract(s)
Atualmente existe um grande número de pessoas
contaminadas com o vírus da SIDA, manifestando sintomas
entre os 20 e 30 anos. Como o vírus pode ficar
inativo no organismo por anos, existe a possibilidade
da contaminação ter ocorrido na fase da adolescência.
Com o objetivo de obter maior conhecimento sobre a
relação entre adolescência e SIDA, foram realizadas
entrevistas com uma amostra de 127 adolescentes na
faixa etária dos 13 aos 20 anos. Foi utilizado um questionário
contendo 22 perguntas. Resultados obtidos revelaram
que 67% dos entrevistados apresentaram um
nível bom de informação em relação ao conhecimento
da SIDA. Em relação ao conhecimento sobre as formas
de contaminação o sexo masculino apresentou um
bom nível e o o sexo feminino apresentou um nível regular.
Quanto às formas de prevenção, 51% dos entrevistados
denotaram um nível regular. Sobre a procedência
das informações, constatou-se que o maior
percentual encontrou-se nos meios de comunicação,
seguido da escola. Verificou-se que entre os adolescentes,
100% do sexo feminino relacionavam afetividade
e sexo, enquanto que entre o sexo masculino,
67% não faziam essa relação. A maioria afirmou que
houveram mudanças no comportamento relativas à
prevenção. De um modo geral pode-se concluir que os
adolescentes apresentaram um nível de conhecimento
adequado e suficiente sobre a doença, apesar da existência
de algumas concepções equivocadas e preconceituosas.
