Abstract

This study investigated knowledge, attitude and behavior on HIV/AIDS among blind and deaf students in primary school of Addis Abeba City administration. Eighty-Four respondents participated in the study. The research adopted a descriptive survey research design. Eighty-Four students (40 blind and 44 deaf) participated in the study. Four hypotheses were postulated and tested. The main instrument use to gather data was HIV/AIDS Education inventory with reliability coefficient of 0.83. Student t-test methods at alpha level of 0.05 were used to analyze the data collected. The findings revealed that there were no significant differences in knowledge and behavior about HIV/AIDS prevention on blind and deaf students.
