Abstract：Objective To investigate the current status of AIDS/HIV-related stigma in teenage students, and to explore the impact of perspective-taking intervention on it. Methods A cluster sampling method was used to select teenage students from five classes of junior Grade I in a middle school, and then all the students were divided into the control group and the intervention group based on their single or double student numbers. AIDS/HIV-related stigma questionnaire was used to evaluate all the students’ AIDS/HIV-related stigma baseline. After implementing perspective-taking intervention in the intervention group, the levels of AIDS/HIV-related stigma of the two groups were assessed, and their levels of empathy were simultaneously evaluated by the Basic Empathy Scale. The level of AIDS/HIV-related stigma was compared between the two groups, and the mediating role of empathy in the impact of perspective-taking on AIDS/HIV-related stigma was analyzed. Results One hundred and forty-six students were enrolled into this study, including 72 students in the control group and 74 in the intervention group. Before implementing the perspective-taking intervention, no statistically significant difference was found in the total score of AIDS/HIV-related stigma between the control group and the intervention group ((43.75±8.95) vs. (44.40±10.41), P>0.05). After implementing the perspective-taking intervention, the total scores of AIDS/HIV-related stigma of the control group and the intervention group were (42.65±11.40) and (37.82±9.94) respectively, with a statistically significant difference (P<0.05). The coefficient c (c=-0.210), coefficient a (a=0.181), coefficient b (b=-0.163) and coefficient c' (c'=-0.181) of mediating effect of empathy showed statistically significant differences (all P<0.05). Mediating effect accounted for 14.05% of the total effect. Empathy had a partial mediating effect on the relationship between perspective-taking and HIV/AIDS-related stigma. Conclusions HIV/AIDS-related stigma is common in teenage students. Perspective-taking intervention can effectively reduce the level of HIV/AIDS-related stigma, and empathy plays a partial mediation role in the relation between perspective-taking and HIV/AIDS-related stigma.
