Knowledge about HIV and behavioral risks of foreign-born Boston public school students
In 1990, 3049 Boston public middle and high school students were surveyed anonymously in English, Spanish, Vietnamese, Chinese, French, or Haitian Creole. Significantly fewer immigrant students, 35% of those surveyed, knew the principal modes of human immunodeficiency virus transmission. Fewer immigrants reported having sexual intercourse (31% vs 53% of nonimmigrants), but among the sexually active only 38% always used condoms, and more immigrant…

Random telephone surveys with approximately 1,000 16-19 year olds in each state were undertaken prior to the law's enactment and twice at yearly intervals after the law to assess the law's impact on teenage drinking, dr…
