Presenting an international cross-sectional study using a purposive sample of high school students from Fiji (South Pacific), Vanuatu (South Pacific), Guyana, and Antigua & Barbuda (Caribbean) to assess HIV and AIDS knowledge and stigma-related attitudes by gender, age, religion, race/ethnicity, and socioeconomic status, the book shows how stigmatizing attitudes and beliefs negatively impact interventions to prevent and treat HIV and AIDS.Health care managementHealth services administrationEconomic developmentCritical criminologyHealth economicsBehavioral sciencesHealth Care Managementhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/527030Development and Healthhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/913060Ethnicity, Class, Gender and Crimehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/1B1030Health Economicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W35000Behavioral Scienceshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L13009Health care management.Health services administration.Economic development.Critical criminology.Health economics.Behavioral sciences.Health Care Management.Development and Health.Ethnicity, Class, Gender and Crime.Health Economics.Behavioral Sciences.362.10681Misir Premauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut980120BOOK9910350210303321HIV2235681UNINA
