TI  - Commentary on Joffe (1996) AIDS research and prevention: a social representation 
      approach.
PG  - 65-73
AB  - Helene Joffe's (1996) article provides us with a well-presented argument 
      detailing the failings of Knowledge, Attitude, Belief and Practice (KABP) 
      approaches in the domain of AIDS/HIV prevention behaviours and argues that the 
      Theory of Social Representations (Moscovici, 1984) offers a useful alternative 
      perspective. In this commentary I would like to expand on some of the issues she 
      raises and to counter-argue that the case for adopting social representations 
      theory as an alternative to KABP approaches has yet to be made convincingly. To 
      do this I will first consider the problems surrounding traditional KABP 
      approaches, then discuss social representations theory as an alternative and 
      consider alternatives on the way.
