简要总结
The goal of this community trial is to provide HIV education based on the newly developed HIV education kit (PREM-Kit) and evaluate the knowledge, attitude and practices related to HIV prevention among the late adolescents (aged 18 to 19 years old) in Malaysia. The main question it aims to answer is does the PREM-Kit improve the knowledge, attitude and practices related to HIV prevention among the adolescent?
Participants will be asked to:
- answer a questionnaire as a baseline screening to determine their knowledge, attitude and practices related to HIV prevention.
- Using PREM-Kit, they will participate in a series of health education sessions. There will be three sessions in total which will be delivered two weekly apart. Each of the sessions will take approximately 20 minutes duration.
- Following the last session (third session), participants will have to answer the same questionnaire ; once immediately after the last session, once at 3-months post-intervention, and lastly, at 4-months post-intervention.
Researchers will compare participants who received the existing Basic Science and Biology module to see if there is any improvement in the knowledge, attitude and practices related to HIV prevention.

结局指标
主要结局
Change in knowledge score related to HIV prevention
时间窗: t1:Measurement of knowledge score before intervention. t2:Measurement of knowledge score immediately post-intervention. t3:Measurement of knowledge score at 3-months post-intervention. t4:Measurement of knowledge score at 4-months post-intervention.
Knowledge score will be determined by using 15 questions related to HIV/AIDS transmission and prevention. The participants will be asked to respond on the individual statement using "Yes" or "No" or "I do not know" response. Each correct answer will be credited with 1 point, whereas wrong answers and ''I don't know'' answers will be assigned 0 points. The sum calculated to determine a total score for this scale. The possible range of total score is 0 to 15, where higher score indicates higher level of knowledge.
Change in attitude score related to HIV prevention
时间窗: t1:Measurement of attitude score before intervention. t2:Measurement of attitude score immediately post-intervention. t3:Measurement of attitude score at 3-months post-intervention. t4:Measurement of attitude score at 4-months post-intervention.
To assess the attitude score, eight items are used to assess the participants' attitude toward HIV/AIDS prevention. It consists of 5-point Likert scale (strongly agree, agree, undecided, disagree and strongly disagree). The scale given to the answers which is positive or agreeable is in the order of 5, 4, 3, 2, and 1. The scale given to the negative answers is in the reverse order. The possible range of the total score is 8 to 40, where higher score indicates higher positive attitude related to HIV prevention.
Change in practice score related to HIV prevention
时间窗: t1:Measurement of practice score before intervention. t2:Measurement of practice score immediately post-intervention. t3:Measurement of practice score at 3-months post-intervention. t4:Measurement of practice score at 4-months post-intervention.
Practice score will be assessed by six questions. All practice items are measured by "Yes", "No" and "I do not know" response. For questions such as (i) Do you watch any form of pornography?, (ii) Do you smoke?, (iii) Have you ever drink alcohol?, (iv) Have you ever tried any narcotic drugs?, and (v) Have you ever had sexual intercourse?, the "Yes" and "I do not know" responses will be scored as 0 point and "No" response will be scored as 1. On the other hand, the question of (vi) Have you ever talked about AIDS or HIV infection with your parents or other adults in your family?, "Yes" response will score 1 point, whereas, "No" and "I do not know" response will score 0. The possible range of total score of this practice measure is between 0 to 6, where higher score is indicative for more good practices related to HIV prevention.
