Abstract in Portuguese
Os caminhoneiros de estrada constituem um grupo de grande mobilidade geográfica em função do trabalho – o transporte de cargas, que exige vários dias até meses fora de suas casas e longe da família. A solidão a que se vêem condicionados torna alguns destes profissionais vulneráveis a manterem relacionamentos sexuais no transcurso das viagens. Assim, este estudo tem por objetivo investigar os fatores de vulnerabilidade entre os caminhoneiros de estrada para o risco de contaminação com o HIV/aids. A metodologia utilizada foi o método quali-quantitativo que teve como eixo norteador a pesquisa – ação e o método da problematização de Paulo Freire. A coleta de dados foi realizada no período de janeiro a fevereiro de 2003, através de uma entrevista semi-estruturada. Foram entrevistados neste período 50 caminhoneiros de estrada presentes nas cooperativas que serviram de campo para este estudo. A análise dos dados quantitativos foi feita com base na estatística descritiva e os dados qualitativos através do método de Bardin (1979). Os resultados encontrados apontam que os caminhoneiros têm conhecimentos sobre vários aspectos da transmissão da aids, mas muitos se envolvem em relacionamentos sexuais na estrada sem o uso do preservativo. Por outro lado, o uso de álcool e anfetaminas (para reduzir o sono) faz parte do cotidiano de alguns destes profissionais, constituindo fatores de vulnerabilidade, uma vez que sob o efeito da bebida nos pontos de paradas para descanso alguns se envolvem com prostitutas. Finalmente, concluímos que os comportamentos observados entre os caminhoneiros estão fundamentados em princípios socialmente construídos com base na cultura machista, levando muitos a se envolverem no sexo sem proteção ou a aventuras como forma de mostrar sua virilidade a qualquer custo, tornando-os, deste modo, vulneráveis a DST/aids.

Abstract in English
The truck drivers constitute a group of great geographical mobility through the cargo transport that requires many days and until months far from their family and home too. The loneliness that they are conditioned, lead some these professionals to vulnerability and to keep sexual relations during their journeys through the highway. Thus, this study aims to investigate the vulnerability factors among truck drivers to the risk of HIV/AIDS’ contamination. The methodology utilized in this study was the quanti-qualitative method that had as the reference the research-action and the Paulo Freire’s problematization method. The data were collected in the months of January to February 2003 through the semi-structured interview. Fifty truck drivers were interviewed in the cooperatives that served as place to this study. The analysis of the quantitative data was based on descriptive statistic and the qualitative data through the Bardin’s method (1979). The results indicate that the truck drivers have knowledge about the several aspects of AIDS’ transmission, but many of them involve to sexual relations in the highway without use of condom. On the other hand, the use of alcohol and amphetamine (to reduce the sleep) is present in the daily life of some them and constitute vulnerability factors in the stop points to rest where the use of alcoholic beverages facilitates the sexual relations together whores. At last, we can conclude that the watched behaviors among the truck drivers are founded in socially built principles based on the culture of masculinity leading many of them to involve in sexual relations or just adventure without use of condom to show their virility all time, becoming them so vulnerable to STD/AIDS.
