Abstract
Description: The child data set includes the responses of 579 children in families of which the reponses have been recorded of manual-based sessions done on groups of families with pre-adolescent children (9-11 years) and evaluated using a treatment versus no treatment repeated-measures design. Each session of the manual covers ten topics that include children's rights and responsibilities; parental styles; communication; puberty; hard to talk about issues; risky environmental influences; understanding HIV/AIDS; dealing with stigma; surviving loss and bereavement; developing support networks. The effect of the intervention was measured along all of these dimensions. This data set contains the responses of both the pre-test and the post-test. The responses of the pre- and post-test were merged into one data set.
Abstract: The primary aim of CHAMP was to apply a community collaborative partnership model to the adaptation, implementation and evaluation of a family - and community-based HIV preventive intervention that targets pre - and early adolescents in South Africa. The CHAMP Family Program was developed for low income, urban and predominantly ethnic minority populations in the United States. CHAMP is a developmentally-timed HIV prevention programme targeting youth and their families before youth become sexually active (9-11 years) in Kwadwdangendlale, a peri-urban township located about 30km outside of Durban. The adapted CHAMP SA programme, also known as the Amaqhawe programme, was delivered through a series of manual-based sessions to groups of families with pre-adolescent children (10-11 years) and evaluated using a treatment versus no treatment repeated-measures design. Each session of the manual covers ten topics that include children's rights and responsibilities; parental styles; communication; puberty; hard to talk about issues; risky environmental influences; understanding HIV/AIDS; dealing with stigma; surviving loss and bereavement; developing support networks. The effect of the intervention was measured along all of these dimensions.
