Critical dialogues sparked by painted images facilitate critical consciousness among formerly incarcerated men
Expanding Knowledge About Music and Well-Being in Carceral Settings
This methodological review includes literature (1987–2022) concerning the role and influence of musical practices—including music therapy and participatory music interventions—on well-being in carceral settings such as jails, prisons, and immigration detention centers. We provide a thorough description of key methodological procedures used in 55 studies: (1) Key Elements of Research Questions; (2) Types of Musical Practices; (3) Musical Genres; (…
Urban, formerly incarcerated, black, heterosexual men with substance use disorders
Research on incarcerated men indicates low PrEP access even though HIV disproportionately affects them. Intersecting attributes – urban, incarcerated, Black, heterosexual men with substance use diagnoses (SUDs) – improves the odds of HIV transmission/acquisition. It is crucial to determine, among “key populations,” who might be eligible to take PrEP. PrEP eligibility criteria have been used inconsistently in research. This exploratory, quantitati…
Critical Dialogue and Capacity-Building Projects Reduced Alcohol and Substance Use in a Randomized Clinical Trial Among Formerly Incarcerated Men
Background: Rates of alcohol and/or substance use (ASU) among residents of predominantly Black and marginalized communities are similar to ASU rates in White communities. Yet ASU has worse consequences in predominantly Black and marginalized communities (e.g., higher incarceration). Objective: We randomized participants to one of 16 intervention conditions using a 24 full factorial design to optimize a multilevel intervention reducing ASU among 6…

Investigación Basada en El Arte Para Mitigar El Racismo/Colorismo Y Mejorar La Salud
Music and well-being in carceral settings
Well-being is defined as the multi-dimensional experience of positive emotions, as well as life satisfaction, autonomy, and purpose. This scoping review examines the impact of musical practices on the well-being of incarcerated individuals and uniquely contributes to the literature by focusing on the relationship between music and power in carceral settings and by expounding on the ways in which musical practices both facilitate and inhibit exper…
Participation in Critical Dialogues With Illustrative Images Increases Knowledge About Covid-19 Prevention
This intervention study uses community-based participatory research (CBPR) and longitudinal design to examine changes in COVID-19 prevention knowledge over time (3 time points) among racially minoritized participants ( n = 38). The intervention comprised critical dialogues alongside an illustration used to engage participants in conversations about socioeconomic conditions affecting acquisition of COVID-19 knowledge. Quantitative data showed that…
Factors that Influence Co-production among Student Interns, Consumers, and Providers of Social and Public Health Services
Providers of public health and social services ("providers") develop and deliver services by engaging in interprofessional collaboration (IPC), from seeking external advice to making referrals and linkages to various social and public health services. Providers collaborate with consumers of social and public health services ("consumers") and student interns (e.g., social work, public health) to explore, determine, and deliver relevant services th…
Teaching Note—Critical Issues in Sign Language Interpretation for Social Work Practice
Language barriers negatively affect access to social services, particularly for D/deaf populations who use Sign Language. “D/deaf” is used to encompass both the cultural conception of capital-D Deafness and the medical conception of lowercase-d deafness. Language translation/interpretation is a common need among practitioners of social, legal, medical, and public health services, all ethically bound to offer culturally sensitive services to D/dea…
Examining Interprofessional Collaboration across case managers, peer educators, and counselors in New York City
Many individuals who are vulnerable to HIV infection and People Living with HIV (PLWH) experience fragmented prevention and care. Prevention and care service integration, pivotal for the HIV care continuum, depends on relationships among service providers and agencies offering HIV services. Case managers, counselors, and peer educators often work together to provide integrated services through interprofessional collaboration (IPC) in HIV preventi…
Interprofessional collaboration improves linkages to primary care
The first steps of the HIV care continuum include patients finding access to HIV testing and primary care. Psychosocial providers ("providers"), such as social workers, health educators, and outreach workers comprise a workforce tasked with linking patients to HIV testing and primary care. This study examines longitudinal associations between provider- and organization-level factors and linkage to HIV testing and primary care. The sample included…
Is Insurance a Barrier to HIV Preexposure Prophylaxis? Clarifying the Issue
Clinical trials have demonstrated that preexposure prophylaxis (PrEP) protects against HIV infection; yet, even with its approval by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 2012, less than 10% of eligible users in the United States are currently taking PrEP. While there are multiple factors that influence PrEP uptake and pose barriers to PrEP implementation, here we focus on PrEP’s cost in the United States, which, at the current list price of …
Community health agents, nurses and physicians conducting research in Brazil’s family health program
While the integration of community-based providers within interprofessional health teams has been recommended by policymakers worldwide, there is limited research on how medical and community-based providers inform and participate in health research. Our study uses cross-sectional data from 169 Community Health Workers (CHWs), 62 nurses, and 31 physicians within Brazil's Family Health Strategy Program. Using an integrated framework of social cogn…
Nurturing Practitioner-Researcher Partnerships to Improve Adoption and Delivery of Research-Based Social and Public Health Services Worldwide
Research-based practices-psychosocial, behavioral, and public health interventions-have been demonstrated to be effective and often cost-saving treatments, but they can take up to two decades to reach practitioners within the health and human services workforce worldwide. Practitioners often rely on anecdotal evidence and their "practice wisdom" rather than on research, and may thus unintentionally provide less effective or ineffective services. …
Predicting Retention in HIV Primary Care
No Easy Answers
In 2012, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) began to de‐emphasize and de‐implement multiple evidence‐based HIV prevention practices that had been around for 20 years, thus changing the scope of implementation across the globe. The authors provide evidence how existing interventions (e.g., CDC HIV interventions) may influence implementation of interventions that came after the program was discontinued. De‐implementation is an eco…
Recruiting and retaining service agencies and public health providers in longitudinal studies
This article addresses a lack of attention in the implementation science literature regarding how to overcome recruitment and retention challenges in longitudinal studies involving large samples of service agencies and health service providers ("providers"). Herein, we provide a case-illustration of procedures that improved recruitment and retention in a longitudinal, mixed-method study-Project Interprofessional Collaboration Implementation-funde…
HIV Education and Welfare Services in Primary Care
Integration of health education and welfare services in primary care systems is a key strategy to solve the multiple determinants of chronic diseases, such as Human Immunodeficiency Virus Infection and Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (HIV/AIDS). However, there is a scarcity of conceptual models from which to build integration strategies. We provide a model based on cross-sectional data from 168 Community Health Agents, 62 nurses, and 32 physi…
Factors That Influence Linkages to HIV Continuum of Care Services
Worldwide, the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) continuum of care involves health promotion providers (e.g., social workers and health educators) linking patients to medical personnel who provide HIV testing, primary care, and antiretroviral treatments. Regrettably, these life-saving linkages are not always made consistently and many patients are not retained in care. To design, test and implement effective interventions, we need to first ident…

Longitudinal study with repeated semi-structured in-depth interviews; baseline captured anticipated contributions and returns; 6- and 18-mo…
HIV practitioners in Madrid and New York improving inclusion of underrepresented populations in research
Practitioners have frequent contact with populations underrepresented in scientific research--ethnic/racial groups, sexual minorities and others at risk for poor health and whose low participation in research does not reflect their representation in the general population. Practitioners aspire to partner with researchers to conduct research that benefits underrepresented groups. However, practitioners are often overlooked as a work force that can…
Factors Associated with Providers’ Perceptions of Mental Health Care in Santa Luzia’s Family Health Strategy, Brazil
Brazil has a unique mental health care system, characterized by universal coverage delivered by interdisciplinary teams both in the community and in specialized centros de atenção psicossocial (CAPS-psychosocial care centers). Provision of patient-centered mental health care is an important principle of Brazilian mental health care, but this topic has not been well-studied. We analyzed data from a cross-sectional survey of 151 community health wo…
Implementation of Brazil's “family health strategy”
Male-to-Female Transgender Individuals Building Social Support and Capital From Within a Gender-Focused Network
The literature on male-to-female transgender (MTF) individuals lists myriad problems such individuals face in their day-to-day lives, including high rates of HIV/AIDS, addiction to drugs, violence, and lack of health care. These problems are exacerbated for ethnic and racial minority MTFs. Support available from their social networks can help MTFs alleviate these problems. This article explores how minority MTFs, specifically in an urban environm…

Partnership Matters in Health Services Research
Health and social service practitioners have not readily incorporated research-based behavioral interventions in HIV prevention practice due to lack of awareness, lack of training, and challenges translating research findings into practice. Practitioners’ involvement in research is associated with their willingness to use research to guide practice. Likewise practitioners’ personal and organizational characteristics have been shown to be associat…

Domínio geográfico da língua portuguesa
O português é o estádio atual de uma língua anterior, o latim vulgar ou corrente, outrora falado em todo o Império Romano. Diversas foram as causas, externas e internas, da diversificação do latim na Ibéria. Das primeiras, a mais importante foi, sem dúvida, o fato político-social da fragmentação do vasto império de Roma. No entanto, as causas intrínsecas constituem a essência mesma da diversificação. Destacam-se: o polidialetismo do latim vulgar …

Adherence to antiretroviral therapy in a context of universal access, in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
Adherence is integral to improving and maintaining the health and quality of life of people living with HIV. Two-hundred HIV-positive adults recruited from teaching hospitals and non-governmental organizations (NGOs) in Rio de Janeiro City were assessed on socio-demographic factors, adherence to antiretroviral therapy (ART) and psychosocial factors hypothesized to be associated with ART. Predictors of non-adherence were analyzed using bivariate a…
It's really a hard life’
Scientific studies demonstrate high rates of HIV infection among male-to-female (MTF) transgender individuals and that stigma and discrimination place MTFs at increased risk for infection. However, there is little research examining how gender roles contribute to HIV risk. This paper reports on in-depth interviews with 20 MTFs attending a community clinic. Data reveal that stigma and discrimination create a heightened need for MTFs to feel safe a…

Exploring group dynamics for integrating scientific and experiential knowledge in Community Advisory Boards for HIV research
To demonstrate how Community Advisory Boards (CABs) can best integrate community perspectives with scientific knowledge and involve community in disseminating HIV knowledge, this paper provides a case study exploring the structure and dynamic process of a "Community Collaborative Board" (CCB). We use the term CCB to emphasize collaboration over advisement. The CCB membership, structure, and dynamics are informed by theory and research. The CCB is…
“I feel like I'm carrying a weapon.” Information and motivations related to sexual risk among girls with perinatally acquired HIV
Some adolescent girls perinatally infected with HIV (PIH) engage in sexual behavior that poses risks to their own well-being and that of sexual partners. Interventions to promote condom use among girls PIH may be most effective if provided prior to first sexual intercourse. With in-depth interviews, we explored gender- and HIV-specific informational and motivational factors that might be important for sexual risk reduction interventions designed …
Let's talk about sex
Integrating HIV prevention into substance abuse counselling is recommended to ameliorate the health outcomes of men who have sex with men. However, culture-based countertransferences (CBCs) may hamper this effort. Using a case illustration, this paper will explain the manifestation of CBCs held among substance abuse counsellors and how they hinder counsellors' work with men who have sex with men. The following CBCs will be explored: distancing, t…
