Abstract
Socio-demographic factors are also important to determine the knowledge
about HIV prevalence and transmission. The current study has used the
Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey 2011 to estimate the impact of sociodemographic factors to determine the knowledge about HIV. Age and
wealth index showed highly significant relationship (p<0.0000) in
determining the knowledge of HIV. Similarly, the people belonging to the
“Rich” group as compared to the “poor” had high percentage for the
spread of HIV and, likewise, the misconception of the rich about the spread
of HIV was low as compared to the poor and vice versa. Moreover, the
increasing level of education showed a decreasing trend of misconception
about the spread of HIV
