AIDSQuest: The HIV/AIDS Survey Library

AIDSQuest is a resource for researchers and others developing HIV/AIDS-related data collection tools. Horizons has collected surveys and scales from a number of international and local organizations, and from the published literature. Information on how each survey was developed and used is provided. Also featured in AIDSQuest are methodological tips on designing AIDS-related questions. Behavioral theories commonly used in HIV research are also explained, as are how the theories can be used to inform surveys.
