Discussion and conclusion

This study was a descriptive study that aimed to assess the knowledge and attitudes of Zanjan barbers towards HIV. The results of this study showed that less than half of the people who have good knowledge about a quarter of people with low level despite this level knowing that most people are relatively poor attitude was very positive and acceptable, contrary to the findings of our study 76% of Mahmoud Karimi good knowledge and 49% of the samples had a good attitude.(13) or that in another study by Mahmud as knowledge, attitude and practice of the barber was aimed at AIDS prevention in 50% and 48.43% of them had good knowledge and 43.4 percent average yield poor attitude in this study were between knowledge and attitude, attitude and practice with regard to experience significant relationship was observed (14). The difference in results may be due to differences in knowledge assessment tool, sample size and the economic and cultural issues. In this study, parsley and colleagues barber’s awareness about the prevention and control of AIDS, the 8.98% were good, while about 4.36% of them had wrong information and attitude, (51) In our study, knowledge and attitude of women to better than men do, which is in line with the parsley and colleagues (51). In our study who had attended training classes, Knowledge and attitude had better control of disease prevention. In this study, it was found that education about diseases transmitted hairdressers hairdresser correction needs to expand, which in the area of health care workers have an important role. And those who also had a history of previous education on AIDS knowledge and attitudes were more favorable effect of education on knowledge and attitude of barbers in the study were included in the study for the Bichari and colleagues that the impact of education on knowledge and attitude of Barbers Birjand on AIDS took place, in this study, the training sessions of 10 to 15 people in the class were provided in health centers, the results showed that education on awareness and attitudes Barbers Birjand had a great impact. (52) In the present study it was observed that the level of education significantly AIDS awareness and attitudes towards that this result is expected respectively. Among the age group 32-40 years age group with the greatest knowledge of the average score and the lowest score was in the age range of 56 years, with an average score. From these findings it can be concluded that in this age range, according to which the people are at risk At the same time experience Working in a variety of ways given the necessary information on AIDS and older than it is due to this that are not so prone to AIDS Less information than others and younger people with less work experience, The opportunity to acquire the necessary information has not been obtained. Suggestions: The results of this study showed that knowledge of the subjects at relatively low levels, and among less educated people, men and those who have no history of educational Know less and therefore should be considered more targeted training programs but the attitude of most people is desirable propose In future studies, in addition to knowledge, attitude and practice regarding preventive measures attitudes and awareness of AIDS and also to evaluate the performance of the as well as training programs for raising awareness beauticians and especially those in the study had low awareness level.
