Public Reactions to People With HIV/AIDS in the Netherlands

Abstract: A national telephone survey was conducted to (a) assess present-day public reactions to people with HIV/AIDS in the Netherlands, (b) measure how knowledge about highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) is related to public reactions to people with HIV/AIDS, and (c) investigate determinants of willingness to have personal contact with people with HIV/AIDS.

For example, an individual who knows that using a condom will reduce the risk of HIV, who knows that healthy-looking people can have the virus, and who can locate an HIV testing facility is 21.7 percent more likely to buy fresh vegetables from an afflicted shop keeper than one without this level of HIV-specific education.…”

“…Reflecting Bidirectional Tensions The ST rotates in both directions to fuel or quell stigmatization processes. Prior studies have focused on processes of stigma creation, coping, and intervention (Bos, Kok, and Dijker 2001). Some scholars have identified coping strategies that render stigmas less salient (Bos et al 2013).…”

“…Highly educated persons tend to have less stigmatizing beliefs about PLWHA (Bos et al 2001;Centers for Disease Control Prevention 2000). Whites may have more strongly negative feelings toward PLWHA than do African Americans, but African Americans may express a stronger desire to avoid contact with PLWHA (Herek et al 1993).…”
