Objective: Increased use of HIV screening is being promoted as a means of checking the increase in HIV infection, but screening is not yet sufficiently widespread. Although some prior research concerning HIV testing investigated motivations among individuals undergoing testing and test structures, investigation of conditions among ordinary groups is inadequate. The current research was conducted to determine awareness and usage of HIV testing among youth.<BR>Method: The research was conducted in June and July 2007 with 271 male and female students enrolled at five universities in Tokyo suburbs as the subjects. The analysis was conducted on the 233 subjects who provided adequate responses. The survey subjects were requested to access and respond to a Web survey questionnaire. The survey itemsused a scale developed by Misovich, S.J.<BR>Results: Approximately 70% of the subjects believe that an HIV test can be conducted when donating blood. Approximately 40% of the subjects do not fully understand that there is a period before infection can be detected by an HIV test. About 75 % of boththe male and female subjects were able to correctly identify locations where HIV testing is performed. Of the subjects, 3.5% have undergone HIV testing.<BR>Conclusions: This research revealed that many individuals incorrectly believe that HIV testing can be performed when donating blood, suggesting that the provision of accurate information and additional measures that will lead to testing are needed.
