Data from WHO (2024) show that approximately 40.8 million people are living with HIV worldwide, with an increasing number of cases in Asia and Indonesia. Adolescents are considered a high-risk group due to varying levels of knowledge and attitudes toward HIV/AIDS, especially in the current digital era. This study employed a cross-sectional design to determine the relationship between the level of knowledge about HIV/AIDS and adolescents’ attitudes toward the disease. The population consisted of adolescents aged 15–18 years at SMA X Palembang, totaling 85 respondents selected using simple random sampling. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire that had been tested for validity and reliability, then analyzed univariately and bivariately using the Spearman Rank test. Most respondents had a good level of knowledge (76.5%) and a positive attitude toward HIV/AIDS (65.9%). The Spearman Rank test showed a significance value of p = 0.000 < 0.05 and a correlation coefficient of r = 0.767 > 0.2383, indicating a significant relationship between the level of knowledge and adolescents’ attitudes toward HIV/AIDS. This study proves that the higher the adolescents’ knowledge level, the more positive their attitude toward HIV/AIDS. Good knowledge plays an essential role in reducing stigma and increasing empathy toward people living with HIV/AIDS. Continuous health education through schools, digital media, and outreach programs is needed to strengthen adolescents’ positive attitudes as part of early prevention efforts against HIV/AIDS and unwanted pregnancies in the digital era.
