DOI: 10.1177/097206340000200106 Knowledge and Attitudes towards AIDS of Social Work Students in MauritiusUniversity of Mauritius, Reduit, Mauritius E-mail: ubhowon{at}morn.a1.mu. The study looked at the knowledge and attitudes of social work students in Mauritius regarding AIDS. Seventy-six students participated in the survey. Results indicate that although a majority had excellent to good knowledge about AIDS, they lacked suffi cient information in crucial areas of AIDS prevention. As many as 80.2 per cent were supportive in their attitudes towards AIDS victims. Knowledge and attitudes did not significantly differ with respect to age, gender, ethnic group and marital status.
