Description This survey among male clients of female sex workers1 aimed to:-Identify and describe segments of the population who consistently use condoms when having sex with sex workers (SWs);-Identify factors related to their opportunity, ability and motivation for consistent condom use and to adopt safer behaviors; and -Apply study findings to design interventions aimed at reducing the risk of HIV transmission among male clients of SWs.Stratified two-staged cluster sampling was used to recruit 645 eligible men for the baseline survey. Inclusion criteria included: 1) must have visited SWs in the last three months; 2)aged 18 to 40; and 3) currently lived or worked in Hanoi or Ho Chi Minh City at the time of recruitment. Recruitment of respondents took place in entertainment establishment venues, mainly beer halls and popular restaurants. A screening questionnaire and main questionnaire served as survey tools. The study questionnaire was developed from PSI's generic sample questionnaire. It included a number of questions measuring PSI's behavior change factors, with a particular emphasis on risk perception, beliefs, and social norms concerning condom use while having sex with SWs. Factors with statistically significant associations with consistent condom use were identified using multivariate analysis. Simple descriptive analyses were run on data to permit monitoring of project indicators. Results are presented in standard PSI Dashboard format.
