Evaluation of the impact of forum theatre on sexual health and HIV/AIDS prevention education among young students

目的探究论坛剧场运用于青年学生性健康及艾滋病预防教育领域的效果。方法以2023年4月举办的3场论坛剧场的学生观众作为研究对象进行问卷调查,对学生干预前后的艾滋病知识知晓情况及风险意识情况进行分析,并进行满意度调查。结果3场活动参与人数516人,活动前后均提交了有效问卷共460人,问卷有效率89.15%。年龄中位数为19(18,20)岁;其中男性占39.3%(181/460),女性占60.7%(279/460)。参加论坛剧场后学生艾滋病知识水平明显提高,各道题前后知晓率均高于干预前(均P<0.01),“国八条”知晓率由干预前的77.4%上升到93.0%(P<0.01)。在风险意识方面,学生对自己感染艾滋病病毒的风险定位发生了变化(P<0.01),对性行为对象的选择较干预前变得保守(P<0.01),对与未知感染状况的人发生性行为较干预前变得更为谨慎(P<0.01)。93.5%的学生对“知性防艾”论坛剧场表示喜爱,认同论坛剧场提高了自己的检测意愿(96.5%)、防护意识(96.1%)、性健康及艾滋病相关知识水平(95.0%)、对HIV暴露后预防用药的接受程度(95.0%),以及会更加慎重做出性决定(94.8%)。结论论坛剧场可以提高青年学生性健康及艾滋病知识知晓率,提高风险意识。青年学生对论坛剧场总体满意度较高,今后可充分发挥论坛剧场的作用,加强对青年学生预防艾滋病的干预。
