Résumé :
FRANÇAIS :
Etude statistique du comportement à long terme des toxicomanes par voie intraveineuse par rapport à la prévention de la contagion du sida. Une baisse de la vigilance a été constatée chez 36% des personnes concernées. Etude de programmes à long terme susceptibles de soutenir le changement de comportement.
ENGLISH :
Intravenous drug users have surprised many policymakers and researchers by exhibiting large-scale AIDS risk reduction. Relapse from desired behavior change has been a traditional problem in treatment for drug misuse/dependence. Failure to maintain AIDS risk reduction was examined in a study of 399 intravenous drug users from New York City. Over 80% of the subjects reported initiating risk reduction, but 36% of those also reported that they did not fully maintain the risk reduction. Factors associated with initiating risk reduction were not necessarily associated with maintenance, indicating that different types of change processes may be occuring. At the policy level, one needs to think of long-term efforts to reduce the spread of HIV among drug users ; "quick fix" programs are not likely to be effective. (Author's abstract)
