Interviewer instructions

Circle the codes for the responses given.

The last three questions aim to obtain information about the level of 'unmet need' for HIV testing. They first ask about experience of HIV testing. Voluntary testing and counselling are now encouraged, in the belief that if a person knows his/her status, he/she is more likely to adopt behaviours to prevent contracting the virus or (if HIV-positive) transmitting it. Many of those who get tested do not return to learn the result of the test, but the proportion of those who return should rise as the quality of pre-test counselling improves. It is important to obtain an estimate of the number of those tested who return to learn the result, in order to monitor this proxy indicator of the quality of available counselling and the level of demand for such services.

Before you ask the questions about AIDS testing, preface them with the introduction given below in Q. 15.
