Multi-Dimensional Risk Factor Patterns Associated with Non-Use of Highly Active Antiretroviral Therapy among Human Immunodeficiency Virus-Infected Women
Association of Race, Substance Abuse, and Health Insurance Coverage With Use of Highly Active Antiretroviral Therapy Among HIV-Infected Women, 2005
Objectives. We examined racial/ethnic disparities in highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) use and whether differences are moderated by substance use or insurance status, using data from the Women's Interagency HIV Study (WIHS). Methods. Logistic regression examined HAART use in a longitudinal cohort of women for whom HAART was clinically indicated in 2005 (N = 1354). Results. Approximately 3 of every 10 eligible women reported not taking …
Generous or Parsimonious Cognitive Architecture? Cognitive Neuroscience and Theory of Mind
Recent work in cognitive neuroscience on the child's Theory of Mind (ToM) has pursued the idea that the ability to metarepresent mental states depends on a domain-specific cognitive subystem implemented in specific neural circuitry: a Theory of Mind Module. We argue that the interaction of several domain-general mechanisms and lower-level domain-specific mechanisms accounts for the flexibility and sophistication of behavior, which has been taken …
HIV Treatment in African Americans
This article reviews the current standard of care for HIV infection as well as how health disparities in the HIV care of African Americans present challenges for both providers and patients. The potential side effects in these antiretroviral treatment regimens that may be a source of additional challenges in treating African Americans are highlighted. A brief review of these issues as they relate to treatment adherence further demonstrates how ad…
An examination of HIV/Aids patients who have excellent adherence to Haart
This paper examines the attitudes and beliefs of HIV/AIDS patients with excellent adherence to highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) and how they differ from those with suboptimal adherence. Forty-four persons with HIV/AIDS, 28 men and 16 women, participated in a qualitative semi-structured interview which was based on the Health Belief Model. The main outcomes were themes consistent with several dimensions of this model, reflecting differ…
Recognition of Faux Pas by Normally Developing Children and Children with Asperger Syndrome or High-Functioning Autism
Measuring change in sexual behavior
Measuring change in sexual behavior as reliably as possible is a crucial methodological issue in evaluation research. We compared two methods of assessing behavior change: the retrospective change method, which asks respondents about change explicitly by asking whether they have made any changes in their sexual behavior in a past time period, and the longitudinal or panel method, which asks respondents at two different times about their sexual be…
Frontal Lobe Contributions to Theory of Mind
“Theory of mind,” the ability to make inferences about others' mental states, seems to be a modular cognitive capacity that underlies humans' ability to engage in complex social interaction. It develops in several distinct stages, which can be measured with social reasoning tests of increasing difficulty. Individuals with Asperger's syndrome, a mild form of autism, perform well on simpler theory of mind tests but show deficits on more development…
The Boston Aids Survival Score (Bass)
OBJECTIVES: This study developed a new acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) severity system by including diagnostic, physiological, functional, and sociodemographic factors predictive of survival. METHODS: Three-hundred five persons with AIDS in Boston were interviewed; their medical records were reviewed and vital status ascertained. RESULTS: Overall median (+/- SD) survival for the cohort from the first interview until death was 560 +/- 14…
Methodological Research on Sexual Behavior in the Aids Era
Changes in condom use among heterosexuals in wave 3 of the Amen Survey
We examined risk factors for HIV and changes in condom use among heterosexual adults (N = 987) over three waves of data from the AIDS in Multi‐Ethnic Neighborhoods (AMEN) cohort survey (1988–89, 1989–90, 1991–92). We found that respondents had maintained increases in condom use reported at Wave 2, but the overall picture is one of condom use having plateaued (and possibly decreased; see sales data). The self‐report condom use data parallel nation…
Changes in insurance status and access to care for persons with Aids in the Boston Health Study
The purpose of this study was to measure unmet needs and changes in insurance status for persons with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). Thirty-six percent of the study's Boston-area respondents (n = 305) had a change in insurance coverage between AIDS diagnosis and interview. Medicaid coverage increased from 14% to 41%. Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia prophylaxis was nearly universal. Only 5% did not receive zidovudine, and intravenous dr…
