Selection of Film Clips and Development of a Video for the Investigation of Sexual Decision Making among Men Who Have Sex with Men
Experimental research on sexual decision making is limited, despite the public health importance of such work. We describe formative work conducted in advance of an experimental study designed to evaluate the effects of alcohol intoxication and sexual arousal on risky sexual decision making among men who have sex with men. In Study 1, we describe the procedures for selecting and validating erotic film clips (to be used for the experimental manipu…

Effects of affective arousal on risky sexual decision-making in US emerging adult college students
Affect has been linked to risky sexual decision-making and may be particularly important for college students. Research has overlooked the role of affective arousal, rather focusing exclusively on affective valence. Other decision-making factors that may be impacted by affective states, such as sexual abdication (i.e. yielding sexual decision-making), have also been disregarded. Using a 2 × 2 randomized-factorial design, this experimental study i…

Alcohol use and HIV disease management
Alcohol use among HIV-positive (HIV+) individuals is associated with decreased adherence to antiretroviral therapy (ART) and consequently poorer HIV treatment outcomes. This study examined the independent association of individual and partner-level alcohol use with HIV disease management among men who have sex with men (MSM) in primary partnerships. In total, 356 HIV+ MSM and their male primary partners completed a baseline visit for a longitudin…
Qualitative Study of Changes in Alcohol Use Among HIV-Infected Adults Entering Care and Treatment for HIV/Aids in Rural Southwest Uganda
Alcohol has a substantial negative impact on the HIV epidemic in sub-Saharan Africa, particularly in Uganda, where heavy alcohol consumption is common. Using a content analytic approach, this qualitative study characterizes changes in alcohol use among 59 HIV-infected Ugandan adults (>18 years old), who reported any alcohol use in the previous year as they entered HIV care. Most participants reported attempting to cease or reduce alcohol intake o…

Assessing the interaction between depressive symptoms and alcohol use prior to antiretroviral therapy on viral suppression among people living with HIV in Rural Uganda
Although there is evidence of individual associations between depressive symptoms and hazardous alcohol use with suboptimal antiretroviral therapy (ART) adherence among people living with HIV (PLWH), few studies have established how the two risk factors may interact to predict viral suppression. We conducted secondary data analyses with two cohorts of Ugandan PLWH (N = 657) to investigate the hypothesized interaction between depressive symptoms (…

Framed Messages to Increase Condom Use Frequency Among Individuals Taking Daily Antiretroviral Medication for Pre-exposure Prophylaxis
Evaluating level of specificity and discrepancy of normative referents for condom promotion
Objective: College students are among the age-group most affected by sexually transmitted infections, yet few evidence-based interventions have proved effective in increasing college student condom use. The goal of this study was to determine which combination of referent proximity and width of discrepancy between perceived and actual norms within a normative feedback intervention produced the greatest motivation to increase condom use among US c…
Daily Associations Between Alcohol Consumption and Antiretroviral Therapy (ART) Adherence Among HIV-Positive Men Who Have Sex With Men
Development of a Telephone-Delivered Acceptance and Commitment Therapy Intervention for People Living with HIV who are Hazardous Drinkers
Understanding Patients’ Experiences with a Brief Alcohol Reduction Intervention among People Living with HIV in Uganda
Background: Brief alcohol reduction interventions for people living with HIV (PLWH) have resulted in mixed findings with some studies showing null or limited treatment effects. To better understand factors that may contribute to their success or failure, this qualitative study sought to explore participants’ experiences in a randomized trial (RCT) of a brief counseling-based alcohol reduction intervention, including challenges that may have imped…

A Mixed-Methods Approach to Develop a Combined Model of U.S. College Student Alcohol-Associated Condomless Sex
A Randomized Feasibility/Acceptability Trial of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy for People with HIV Who Drink at Unhealthy Levels
Unhealthy alcohol use is prevalent among people with HIV (PWH) and associated with significant health-related consequences. We describe here a randomized feasibility/acceptability trial of a brief, telephone-delivered transdiagnostic acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) intervention for PWH who drink at unhealthy levels. This pilot trail was designed to match the procedures of a planned definitive RCT that will compare the ACT intervention to …
Sexual Communication Self-Efficacy and Sexual Victimization Risk Among College Women Who Use Alcohol
Gendered sexual norms and power dynamics shape women’s ability to communicate sexual boundaries and negotiate consent, particularly within alcohol-involved contexts. Sexual communication self-efficacy is often conceptualized as an individual skill; however, it may reflect broader gendered constraints that influence sexual victimization risk. The current study investigated the association between sexual communication self-efficacy and sexual victi…
