Feasibility and acceptability of pre-exposure prophylaxis use among women in violent relationships
Intimate partner violence (IPV) is associated with a high risk of HIV acquisition. Pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP), which does not require partner knowledge or consent, is a promising HIV risk reduction option for women experiencing IPV. Drawing on semi-structured interviews with 26 women experiencing IPV within the last six months, this study explored the feasibility and acceptability of PrEP use in this population. Slightly more than half of th…
Mobile technology use and desired technology-based intervention characteristics among HIV+ Black men who have sex with men
HIV positive Black men who have sex with men (MSM) are retained in HIV medical care at suboptimal rates. Interventions targeted to Black MSM are needed to help to improve their retention in care. The purposes of this study were to investigate the use of mobile technology among HIV+ Black MSM and to explore participants' thoughts about the use of mobile technology for HIV retention in care interventions. Twenty-two HIV+ Black MSM completed a techn…

Predicting Condom Use among STD Clinic Patients Using the Information - Motivation-Behavioral Skills (IMB) Model
We assessed determinants of condom use postulated by the IMB model among STD patients ( N = 1474). The model provided acceptable fit to the data (CFI = 0.99, RMSEA = .04). Information was unrelated to condom use but had a negative effect on behavioral skills. Motivation had a positive effect on behavioral skills and condom use. Behavioral skills had a positive effect on condom use. In multiple-groups analyses, stronger associations between motiva…

Characteristics of Sexual Abuse in Childhood and Adolescence Influence Sexual Risk Behavior in Adulthood
Childhood and adolescent sexual abuse has been associated with subsequent (adult) sexual risk behavior, but the effects of force and type of sexual abuse on sexual behavior outcomes have been less well-studied. The present study investigated the associations between sexual abuse characteristics and later sexual risk behavior, and explored whether gender of the child/adolescent moderated these relations. Patients attending an STD clinic completed …
