OBJECTIVE: To evaluate a workshop for increasing condom use among men who work in bars and who are at risk for HIV infection. METHOD: We conducted workshops in 3 bars and 2 bars served as controls. The workshop consisted of a play, a video of an interview with a Thai person with AIDS and an informal question and answer period. Free condoms and lubricants were provided in all study bars during the study. We compared knowledge about HIV infection, attitudes about condom use, reported condom use and sexual practices. RESULTS: TABULAR DATA, SEE ABSTRACT VOLUME. CONCLUSION: The workshop was able to increase the knowledge about HIV infection but changed attitudes about condom use little. Unexpectedly, condom use increased more in the control than in the experimental group.
