Resumo: This study investigated the relationships among the symbolic valuation given to eleven descriptor elements of the social representation of AIDS, the level of scientific knowledge about HIV and AIDS, and the information sources about aids. A self-administered questionnaire with closed-ended questions was employed in 150 high school students from a public school. Significant relationships between the elements were identified, that indicated three characterizing factors of the social representation of AIDS: responsibility towards contagion, fear of contagion consequences and aids description. There were also relationships between the symbolic valuation of six elements and four information sources, which corroborated the importance of communication outside the group in the constitution of social representations. However, the relationships between the symbolic valuation of elements and the levels of scientific knowledge were non-significant.

Este estudio investigó la relación entre el valor simbólico atribuido a once elementos descriptores de la representación social del SIDA, el nivel de conocimientos científicos sobre el VIH y el SIDA, y las fuentes para obtener información sobre el SIDA. Se utilizó un cuestionario autoadministrado con respuestas cerradas en 150 estudiantes de secundaria en una escuela pública. Se identificaron relaciones significativas entre los elementos, que señaló tres factores que caracterizan la representación social del SIDA: la responsabilidad ante el contagio, el temor de las consecuencias de la infección, la descripción del SIDA. Y relaciones entre el valor simbólico de seis elementos y cuatro fuentes de información, que confirmó la importancia de la comunicación fuera del grupo en las representaciones sociales. Sin embargo, entre el valor simbólico de los elementos y niveles de conocimiento científico las relaciones no fueron significativas. Investigaram-se, neste estudo, as relações entre a valorização simbólica atribuída a onze elementos descritores da representação social da aids, o nível de conhecimento científico sobre o HIV e aids, e as fontes de obtenção de informações sobre aids. Utilizou-se um questionário autoaplicável, de respostas fechadas, em 150 estudantes do ensino médio de uma escola pública. Identificaram-se relações significativas entre os elementos, que apontaram três fatores como caracterizadores da representação social da aids: responsabilidade diante do contágio; medo das consequências do contágio; descrição da aids. Foram encontradas relações significativas entre a valorização simbólica de seis elementos e quatro fontes de informação, que corroboraram a importância da comunicação extragrupo na constituição das representações sociais. Contudo, entre a valorização simbólica dos elementos e os níveis de conhecimento científico as relações não se mostraram significativas. Universidade de São Paulo.
