Background:HIV vaccine development is an urgent priority.An HIV vaccine preparedness study was conducted involving 243 HIV-negative injection drug users (IDU) in the Vancouver Injection Drag Users Study (VIDUS Ⅱ).Methods:Data were collected between October 2007 to May 2008.A cross-sectional design was used to examine the relationship between the cognitive factors of HIV optimism (including two questions on treatment optimism),self-efficacy for participation,and knowledge of vaccine trial concepts,as well as high-risk factors for HIV seroconversion,in relation to willingness to participate (WTP) in a preventive HIV vaccine trial.Logistic regression was used to determine the relationship between the sums of each cognitive factor,and high-risk factors and WTP.
