Widely varying HIV prevalence and risk behaviours among the ethnic minority peoples of northern Thailand
We compared HIV prevalence, risk behaviours, and social and sexual norms among nine ethnic minority (Hilltribe) groups in northern Thailand. Communities were selected on the basis of size, ethnicity, development level and geography. Subjects (15-45 years) were stratified by gender and selected by household using two-stage randomization. Forty volunteers were identified in each of 27 villages. Participation was voluntary and informed consent was o…

Sexual risk behaviour reduction associated with voluntary HIV counselling and testing in HIV infected patients in Thailand
Sexual risk behaviour, measured by anonymously self-reported sexual activity, number of sexual partners, and condom use rates, was studied in age- and gender-matched HIV-1 positive consecutive patients from the Thai Red Cross Immune Clinic (IC) (study group, questioned after voluntary HIV counselling and testing) and the Thai Red Cross Anonymous Clinic (AC) (control group, questioned before voluntary HIV counselling and testing) in Bangkok, Thail…

Two Views of Risky Sexual Practices Among Northern Thai Males
We apply the Health Belief Model (HBM) and the Theory of Reasoned Action (TRA) to an analysis of unsafe sexual practices (inconsistent condom use with commercial sex workers) among men living in a high HIV-prevalence area. The empirical analysis is based primarily on a survey of sexual practices that was conducted by the authors during the fall of 1991. The survey sample includes university undergraduates, soldiers, clerks, and laborers living in…
Sexual activity among never-married men in northern Thailand
We use data collected in 1991 to investigate sexual activity among never-married men in Thailand, with a focus on age at first intercourse, characteristics of sexual partners, and conditions under which men visit prostitutes. We sampled men from a broad spectrum of northern Thai society, including university undergraduates, soldiers, and semiskilled/unskilled workers. We found that except for the students, the majority of each subsample is sexual…
The Impact of Family Size on Wealth Accumulation in Rural Thailand
An analysis of survey and focus-group data collected in 1988 in two rural sites in Thailand indicates that couples with few children are better able to accumulate wealth than those with larger numbers of children. The study is based on partly matched samples of couples in intact marriages who began their childbearing during the 1960s or early 1970s. Family size is inversely related to accumulated wealth, as measured by consumer goods acquired, sa…
