were applied was to find out the influence of education and perceived seriousness of HIV-AIDS on telling partner if HIV positive. The study drew a sample of women from selected places in Blantyre and Lilongwe urban areas. The areas include: NBS (LL & BT) branches, NB (LL & BT) branches, KCN and TTC (LL &BT) campuses. The study had 263 women. Data was collected using a questionnaire and was analyzed both manually and using the computer (SPSS package). Chi-square statistical was used to test the study findings.
The study findings indicated that education does not influence disclosure to partner if positive and also that perceived seriousness does not influence disclosure to partner if
positive. It is with great hope that the results of this study will help health workers when doing pre and post counseling of HIV/AIDS people and their partners according to their level of education and level of perception |
