Abstract
A random sample of 407 French Canadian adults responded to a questionnaire about perception of AIDS. Negative attitudes about AIDS are better predicted by homophobia than other measures as are attitudes about extramarital relations and attitudes about adolescent heterosexuality.This publication has 4 references indexed in Scilit:
