Susceptibilidad y autoeficacia frente al VIH/Sida en adolescentes de Cali-Colombia by Ana Fernanda Uribe Rodríguez, Tatiana Vergara Vélez, Claudia Barona

“…Encontramos diferencias significativas en la autoeficacia en función del género (p< 0,003) y la edad (p< 0,005), y en la susceptibilidad en función del género (p< 0,006). Concluimos que los jóvenes y las jóvenes con mayor predisposición al VIH/Sida son adolescentes varones entre los 16 y los 18 años de edad, que pertenecen a estratos socioeconómicos bajos; y que las mujeres jóvenes tienen mayor susceptibilidad y autoeficacia frente al VIH/Sida que los varones, lo cual posiblemente las hace más proactivas en la prevención de enfermedades como el VIH/Sida. …”
