China (2006): HIV/AIDS TRaC Study Examining Condom Use among Female Sex Workers in Mengzi, Yunnan Province. Second Round.

Tracking surveys serve as tools to inform programming by routinely collecting data from cross-sections of populations at risk for HIV/AIDS and other adverse health outcomes. This survey among female sex workers (FSW) aimed to: 1) identify and describe segments of FSW in terms of consistent condom use with commercial partners, and condom use with regular partners; 2) gain an understanding of opportunity, ability and motivational factors that related to HIV risk behaviour; 3) monitor key determinants of behaviour and logframe indicators over time; 4) measure change in key indicators and promoted behaviors in relation to exposure to PSI/China activities; and 5) use study data to improve an ongoing social marketing and behavior change communication campaign for HIV/AIDS risk reduction among FSW.Cluster sampling of hotspots was used to collect data among 495 FSW in Mengzi in November and December 2006. The study questionnaire collected data on FSWs opportunity, ability and motivation to consistently use condoms with sexual partners.追踪调查作为一类项目规划辅助工具，可通过定期收集艾滋病（HIV/AIDS）及其他不良健康结局高危人群的横断面数据，为项目实施提供决策依据。本次针对女性性工作者（Female Sex Workers, FSW）的追踪调查旨在达成以下目标：1）基于与商业性伴、固定性伴的安全套持续使用情况，对女性性工作者群体进行细分并描述各细分群体特征；2）探究与艾滋病病毒（HIV）风险行为相关的机会、能力与动机因素；3）长期监测行为关键决定因素及逻辑框架指标；4）评估接触PSI/中国项目活动后，关键指标与推广行为的变化情况；5）利用本研究数据优化针对女性性工作者的艾滋病风险防控社会营销与行为改变传播活动。2006年11月至12月，研究团队在蒙自采用高危热点地区整群抽样方法，共收集到495名女性性工作者的相关数据。本次研究使用的调查问卷，采集了女性性工作者与各类性伴持续使用安全套相关的机会、能力与动机数据。
