Parental knowledge on HIV/AIDS in Gauteng Region 3Ngcamu, Esther Avis Gugulethu 06 1900 (has links)
Recognizing that a parent is a key role player in fighting HIV/AIDS, the researcher conducted a study to examine and describe the knowledge parents have of this disease and its virus.
The study was conducted among a sample of 100 parents/guardians, using a questionnaire to
examine the respondents' conceptual, episodic, descriptive, procedural and declarative knowledge of HIV/AIDS.
The study found that the respondents lacked especially conceptual and declarative knowledge and that the main factor contributing to knowledge is the level of education. / Health Studies / M.A. (Health Studies)

The spatial distribution of HIV and AIDS in Gauteng, South AfricaEzike-Dennis, Uchechukwu Nneka 31 December 2007 (has links)
Since the earliest reported cases of HIV/AIDS probably in 1959 in Africa, there has been a
consistent progression in the new HIV/AIDS infection cases. In South Africa, Gauteng, records one
of the highest HIV/AIDS prevalence rates in the country.
The Department of Health (DOH) South Africa conducts ongoing studies on HIV/AIDS at provincial
levels; these studies monitor the prevalence of HIV/AIDS amongst pregnant women attending
antenatal clinics, as a tool for determining and monitoring the prevalence, trends, patterns and
spread of the disease in the general population.
This study analyses sentinel and spatial data collected from the (DOH) and Statistics South Africa
(StatsSA) respectively, and depicts them in the form of spatial maps, and then critically analyses
the spatial patterns that occur.
The research findings would hopefully contribute to the overall knowledge of HIV/AIDS and provide
framework and relevant literature for further investigation. / Geography / M.Sc. (Geography)

Exploring the perceptions on pathways to manhood amongst urban young African adult men by HIV-prevention programme practitioners in Gauteng, South AfricaRoets, Hendrik Johannes Leon 11 July 2014 (has links)
The pathways to manhood for young adult African men in urban settings are based more on socio-economic demands than socio-cultural expectations of being a man. This study was a qualitative explorative research on the perceptions of HIV-prevention practitioners on the different pathways to manhood among young adult African men in urban settings in Gauteng, South Africa. From the findings it was clear that there are diverse socio-cultural and socio-economic pathways to manhood, including the media, older men, peers, religion and women.
These pathways affirm, confirm, validate and value a man as a man and not a boy in urban settings such as cities and informal settlements in Gauteng. The research concluded that a great deal more could be done to ensure that men get involved in HIV-prevention programmes by ensuring dialogue on manhood and masculinities between men and men, and men and women. / Sociology / M.A. (Social Science)
