AB This paper investigates domains of drug injection behavior and the
association of derived factors to HIV serostatus. Two sets of data were
randomly selected and matched from a national data set of over 40,000
drug injectors. One set was HIV seropositive and the other HIV
seronegative heterosexual injectors. Samples were matched to control for
the effects of race/ethnicity, gender, and age on serostatus. Factor
analysis was used to investigate relationships among drug injection
behaviors. Four independent factors were found. Two factors were found
to be statistically related to HIV serostatus in high seroprevalence
areas. None of the needle use factors was found to be significantly
associated with serostatus in low seroprevalence areas.
