Questions and instructions

Literal question
216. ASK FOR CONSENT FOR DBS COLLECTION FROM PARENT/ OTHER ADULT IDENTIFIED IN 215 RESPONSIBLE FOR NEVER IN UNION WOMEN AGE 15-17

As part of the survey we also are asking people all over the country to take an HIV test. HIV is the virus that causes AIDS. AIDS is a very serious illness. The HIV test is being done to see how big the AIDS problem is in Zambia.

For the HIV test, we need a few drops of blood from a finger. The blood will be collected on a paper card. The equipment used to take the blood is clean and completely safe. It has never been used before and will be thrown away after each test. No names will be attached so we will not be able to tell you the test results. No one else will be able to know (NAME OF ADOLESCENT)'s test results either. I will provide her with a list of [nearby] facilities offering counselling and testing for HIV. I will also give her a voucher for free services that can be used at any of these facilities.

Do you have any questions?
You can say yes to the test, or you can say no. It is up to you to decide.
Will you allow (NAME OF ADOLESCENT) to give blood on a paper card for the HIV test?

Description

Definition
HIVCONSENT (V473A) indicates whether permission was granted for the person's blood to be drawn and tested for HIV antibodies or, if not, why not. Interviewers read a statement about HIV testing and requested permission to draw and test the individual's blood; blood was drawn only if consent was given by the persons themselves (if adults) or by a parent or guardian (if a minor).
