| 520 | |a The study investigated the influence of some psychosocial factors (self-efficacy, emotional Intelligence, gender and age) and knowledge on HIV/AIDS attitudes of early adolescents. 240 school-going early adolescents (132 males and 108 females) aged between 10 and 14 years participated in the study. The measured effects of the independent variables using the Pearson r and hierarchical regression statistics indicated a joint relationship of the measures on HIV-AIDS altitudes of early adolescents. Similarly, participants' self-efficacy, El, knowledge of HIV/AIDS, and age also influenced their attitudes towards HIV/AIDS. These findings suggest that early adolescents' attitudes towards HIV/AIDS could be improved through the variables investigated. | ||
