“…One intervention study 22 was excluded because although it showed that people's knowledge levels increased, it did not show how it affected their perceptions of risk for infection. Three [23][24][25] were excluded because they did not mention how risk perception was assessed. A total of 15 studies [26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37][38][39][40] were excluded because either the knowledge measure was missing completely or because no validity or reliability check was done for the measure.…”

This systematic review tries to elucidate the association between what people know about HIV/AIDS and how they perceive their risk of infection. The initial search for articles yielded 1,595 abstracts, 16 of which met the inclusion criteria. Five studies found a positive correlation, four reported a negative correlation and seven found no association between knowledge and risk perception. It was found that the existing psychometrically sound measure of HIV/AIDS risk perception had not been used in any of the studies. The context in which the risk is assessed is pivotal to whether an association between knowledge and the perceived risk is found. Biases in judgement such as optimistic bias, psychological distancing, anchoring bias and overconfidence also explain how knowledge may fail to predict risk perception. It was concluded that the association between HIV/AIDS knowledge and risk perception might follow a continuum from positive to no association and finally to negative. The hypothesis, however, still needs to be studied further.

“…The majority of these (n = 16) were conducted in Africa between 2004 and 2013 (Brown et al, 2008;Chng, Eke-Huber, Eaddy, & Collins, 2005;Hoque & Ghuman, 2011;Mill et al, 2004;Mkumbo, 2013;Nkuo-Akenji et al, 2007;Nwezeh, 2010;Odu et al, 2008;Ogbuji, 2005;Onah, Mbah, Chukwuka, & Ikeme, 2004;Oppong Asante & Oti-Boadi, 2013;Oyefara & Bisiriyu, 2007;Petro-Nustas, 2000;Reddy & Frantz, 2011;Tagoe & Aggor, 2009;Unadike, Ekrikpo, & Bassey, 2012). Ten of the articles that focused on HIV/AIDS were published in the United States (Grin, Chan, & Operario, 2013;Inungu, Mumford, Younis, & Langford, 2009;Lance, 2001;Mancoske, Rountree, Donovan, & Neighbors, 2006;Sileo & Sileo, 2008;St. Rose, 2008;Sutton et al, 2011;Tung, Hu, Efird, Su, & Yu, 2013;Weinstein et al, 2008).…”

Sexual health plays an important role in the well-being of university students. The literature shows that the majority of university undergraduates are sexually active and at high risk of contracting sexually transmitted infections (STIs); however, the breadth and degree of the literature on their sexual health knowledge is unclear. The purpose of this scoping review was to gain a deeper understanding of the state of research on the sexual health knowledge of university/college students globally. A 5-stage framework was used to guide the review and to characterize the literature on sexual health knowledge. Articles published in English between 2000 and 2014 were reviewed if they included university students as a population of interest and described the methods used to measure sexual health knowledge. Of the 2,386 articles retrieved, 91 met the criteria. The majority of the articles (n = 79) used a cross-sectional design to investigate students' knowledge about HIV/AIDS (n = 45), STIs (n = 23), HPV (n = 9), and contraception (n = 24). The review highlights gaps in the literature and in findings relating to the research dominance of various geographic locations, common research designs, the wide range of measurement tools used, and the variety of sexual health knowledge outcomes of interest. The review provides a useful description of the literature on sexual health knowledge among university/college students and some recommendations for moving the field forward.

“…The Advisory Board was diverse, which contributed to minimizing tribal bias based on their varying tribal affiliations and geographic locations. This process was important to ensure that the adaptation included appropriate content that reflects the practices, worldviews, and experiences of Native Americans from multiple (Sileo & Sileo, 2008). As a result, varied Native American cultural stories and teachings, statistics, and history of colonization from different tribal nations were incorporated into the cultural adaptations to respect tribal diversity.…”

Relatively few HIV evidence-based interventions (EBIs) among Native Americans have been developed, adapted, evaluated, and/or published in the scientific literature. An adolescent HIV EBI was adapted in three phases: (1) securing input from a Native American Advisory Board; (2) modifying the EBI to be more consistent with Native American culture; and (3) conducing a pilot with 14 Native American adolescents to examine acceptability and cultural congruence between the adapted intervention and the youth's culture based on Likert-scale ratings and a focus group. The adaptations included diverse Native American social and cultural stories that assisted with responsible decision-making skills. The adolescents consistently rated each intervention session as highly acceptable. A difference in knowledge from pre-survey (M = 13.93, SD = 3.08) to post-survey (M = 17.14, SD = 2.25) was statistically significant; t(13) = 4.166, p < .0005. The adapted curriculum did appear culturally responsive based on the pilot test results.
