    Open AccessEdwin Hernan Ramirez Asis, Jorge Broncano Gala et al.ARTICLELlalliq2022

    La motivación en el trabajo es la clave del éxito institucional y, dado que tanto la motivación como el rendimiento laboral son de gran interés en las instituciones públicas, se deduce que la primera es crucial para la segunda.

  • The multidimensional nature of HIV stigma

    Miguel A Carrasco, Rosario Martı́nez Arias et al.ARTICLEAfrican Journal of AIDS Research2017

    HIV stigma continues to be a major challenge to addressing HIV/AIDS in various countries in sub-Saharan Africa, including Mozambique. This paper explores the multidimensional nature of HIV stigma through the thematic analysis of five qualitative studies conducted in high HIV prevalence provinces in Mozambique between 2009 and 2012. These studies included 23 interviews with people living with HIV (PLHIV) (10 women and 13 men); 6 focus groups with …

  • Regarding realities

    Open AccessEmily S Holman, C Harbour et al.ARTICLEGlobal Public Health2016

    This paper argues for the methodological merit of photo-based projective techniques (PT) in formative HIV communication research. We used this technique in Mozambique to study multiple sexual partnerships (MSPs) and the roles of social and gender norms in promoting or discouraging these behaviours. Facilitators used ambiguous photographs and vignettes to ease adult men and women into discussions of sexual risk behaviour and HIV transmission. Visu…

  • The effect of a joint communication campaign on multiple sex partners in Mozambique

    María García Figueroa, Maria Elena Figueroa et al.ARTICLEAIDS Care2014

    Mozambique is one of the countries in sub-Saharan Africa most affected by the HIV epidemic. Multiple and concurrent sexual partnerships (MSP/CP) have been recognized as one of the key drivers in the rapid spread of HIV in the region. Though HIV prevention programs have been successful in increasing condom use and HIV testing, reducing the practice of MSP/CP has been more difficult. Grounding their interventions in social and behavior change theor…

Launched between 2009 and 2010, they all…

  • Translation Barriers in Conducting Qualitative Research With Spanish Speakers

    Open AccessGriselda I Lopez, Maria Figueroa et al.ARTICLEQualitative Health Research2008Citada por: 33Referencias: 13

    Cross-cultural qualitative research is rare and challenging because of difficulties of collecting reliable and valid information when conducting research in a language other than the researcher's primary language. Although standards of rigor exist for the data collection, analysis, interpretation, and reporting of qualitative data, no such standards exist for translation of translinguistic qualitative research. Therefore, a new methodology modele…
