Current Contraceptive Practices and Pre-exposure Prophylaxis Modality Preferences among Black and Non-Black Women in the United States
Evaluating an Experiential Learning Approach to Training and Supporting Early-Stage Researchers
The All of Us Researcher Academy Internship Program provided a 3-month experiential learning opportunity for graduate and undergraduate students to train on analyzing health data from the All of Us Research Program. Thirteen interns were paired with mentors who have ongoing projects using the All of Us Researcher Workbench, a cloud-based data analysis platform. Interns also participated in networking activities, attended weekly internship supervi…
Stigma and HIV testing behavior in a nationally representative sample of US adults
Research has examined the impact of HIV stigma on people with HIV (PWH), but little work has explored how stigmatizing beliefs toward PWH and instrumental stigma - the misplaced fears of infection through everyday contact with PWH - may serve as a barrier to HIV testing. We analyzed responses from 3,271 US adults in the fall 2021 ConsumerStyles Survey to estimate the prevalence of these stigmas and examine associations with sociodemographic facto…
Examining the Association Between Exposure to the #ShesWell Campaign and Black Women’s Conversations with Healthcare Providers About Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP)
Low uptake of pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) for HIV prevention among Black women has been partly attributed to barriers related to patient-provider communication. The goal of this paper was to investigate the association between exposure to the #ShesWell campaign and Black women's communication about PrEP with a healthcare provider (HCP). We conducted a cross-sectional survey of 403 sexually active, Black women after the initial phase of #ShesW…

Applying Engagement Marketing and Human-Centered Design to Cocreate a Digital Decision Support Tool for Research Participation with LGBTQIA+ Community Members
We used engagement marketing and human-centered design principles to cocreate a digital decision support tool for research participation with LGBTQIA+ community members to help them make an informed decision about joining the All of Us Research Program. Building on results from the research phase, we conducted eight problem validation and solutioning workshops with 48 LGBTQIA+ community members. Community members validated barriers to engagement …
Message Framing Strategies to Promote the Uptake of PrEP
Effectively Communicating About HIV and Other Health Disparities
Despite significant progress in the prevention and treatment of HIV, disparities in rates of infection remain among key groups in the United States, including blacks and African Americans; Hispanics/Latinos; and men who have sex with men (MSM). The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services’ initiative, Ending the HIV Epidemic: A Plan for America, calls for addressing HIV-related disparities and reducing stigma and discrimination associated wit…
HIV information needs of transgender people and their healthcare providers
Despite the disproportionate burden of HIV among transgender people in the United States, few HIV-related communication materials exist for transgender people or their healthcare providers. Our goal was to understand the barriers and facilitators transgender people face in accessing HIV prevention, testing, and care services and the potential implications for message development and dissemination. We reviewed the literature and interviewed nine k…

Beyond reminders
The availability of effective antiretroviral therapy has altered HIV from being an acute disease to being a chronic, manageable condition for many people living with HIV (PLWH). Because of their ubiquity and flexibility, mobile phones with short message service (SMS) offer a unique opportunity to enhance treatment and prevention for people managing HIV. To date, very few US studies using SMS for HIV self-management have been published. In this ar…
Beneficiary Knowledge of Original Medicare and Medicare Managed Care
BACKGROUND: Previous research on beneficiary knowledge of the Medicare program has shown that the beneficiary population is not well informed about Medicare. The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) implemented the National Medicare Education Program in 1998 to educate Medicare beneficiaries about program benefits; choices, rights, responsibilities and protections, and health behaviors. OBJECTIVES: We sought to measure beneficiary knowl…
How Does Beneficiary Knowledge of the Medicare Program Vary by Type of Insurance
Background. Prior research found that Medicare beneficiaries' knowledge of the Medicare program varied by the type of supplemental insurance they had. However, none of these studies used both multivariate methods and nationally representative data to examine the issue. Objectives. To measure beneficiary knowledge of the Medicare program and to evaluate how knowledge varies by type of supplemental insurance. Objectives. A mail survey with telephon…
Testing the Effect of Quality Reports on the Health Plan Choices of Medicare Beneficiaries
This article describes a laboratory experiment that used a convenience sample of 225 Medicare beneficiaries to test the effects of comparative quality information on plan choice. Providing information about quality did not significantly influence the choice between Original Medicare and a health maintenance organization (HMO), but did affect the choice of HMO. Results from this experiment suggest that information about plan quality may not be eff…
