001 Questionnaire Identification Number ___ ___ ___

002 Town: Livingstone

003 Province__________________

04 Site______________________

Introduction: "My name is… I'm working for Tropical Disease Research Centre and Family Health International. We're interviewing people here in [name of city, region or site] in order to find out about people's HIV/AIDS knowledge, attitude, and risk behavior. Following this interview you will be asked to provide specimens for Sexually Transmitted Diseases and be given treatment. Have you been interviewed in the past few weeks for this study? If The Respondent Has Been Interviewed Before, Do Not Interview This Person Again. Tell them you cannot interview them a second time, thank them, and end the interview. If they have not been interviewed before, continue:

Confidentiality and consent: "I'm going to ask you some very personal questions that some people find difficult to answer. Your answers are completely confidential. Your name will not be written on this form, and will never be used in connection with any of the information you tell me. You do not have to answer any questions that you do not want to answer, and you may end this interview at any time you want to. However, your honest answers to these questions will help us better understand what people think, say and do about certain kinds of behaviors. We are only talking with women who have sex in exchange for money. Can I go ahead? We would greatly appreciate your help in responding to this survey. The interview will take about 30 minutes to ask the questions. Would you be willing to participate?"

That is the end of the questionnaire. Thank you very much for taking time to answer these questions. We appreciate your help. As I stated earlier we would also like to take some specimens to test for STDs (NOT HIV). Your name will never be asked and you will receive treatment. Are you willing to go with me?
