Over the last decade, HIV infections have increased in Western Australia amongst Australian men travelling, living and working in Thailand. Using symbolic interaction as the theoretical lens, in-depth interviews, analysis of online forum posts and observational fieldwork led to a grounded theory explaining: 1) social network processes of male expatriates, longer-term or frequent travellers (ELoFTs); and 2) how ELoFT social networks may be harnessed for public health intervention, particularly via peer education and social influence. | en_US |
