Prague population is at highest risk of HIV/AIDS acquisition within the Czech region and the patterns that young people employ need to be monitored for possibility of effective intervention.
Design and Method |
A quantitative survey of a sample of 500 male students and 500 female students of the last two years of grammar schools, specialized high schools and apprentice training centers in Prague, a method of selection based on quotes was used, the quotes being: sex, type of school and year of study.
Results |
A wide range of data about attitudes, knowledge and HIV/AIDS risky behavior were acquired, and the differences in some of the aspects between students from grammar schools and apprentice training centers as well as between men and women of the sample were proven statistically.

The sample shows rather high number of sexual partners, limited use of condom (especially in anal sex) and knows minimally the benefit of lubrication gel in such practices. The intervention should be aimed to more positive image of “safe sex strategies” in students of lower educational levels and more precise information about the correct use of safe sex techniques.
