 AB    Comparing data from national Los Angeles Times surveys allows for an
       examination of changes in attitudes toward AIDS in 1985, when the crisis
       was first coming to public attention, and in 1987, when public opinion
       had a greater opportunity to stabilize. The primary predictors of public
       opinion did not change from 1985 to 1987, but there were somewhat less
       irrational attitudes among most segments of the population by 1987.
       However, among those who were conservative on the issue of
       homosexuality, personal concern for AIDS fell and support for repression
       grew.
