Tuberculosis Knowledge, Awareness, and Stigma Among African-Americans in Three Southeastern Counties in the USA
Vaginal Ring Adherence in Sub-Saharan Africa
High Acceptability of a Vaginal Ring Intended as a Microbicide Delivery Method for HIV Prevention in African Women
Preference Between Precoital and Daily Use of Duet® and BufferGel in Zimbabwe
Preventive Misconception as a Motivation for Participation and Adherence in Microbicide Trials
Using Integrated Mixed Methods to Develop Behavioral Measures of Factors Associated With Microbicide Acceptability
Our current understanding of factors associated with microbicide acceptability and consistent use typically has been derived from separate and distinct qualitative or quantitative studies. Specifically, rarely have investigators used mixed methods to both develop and validate behavioral measures. We utilized an integrated mixed methods design, including qualitative metasyntheses, cognitive interviews and expert reviews, psychometric evaluation, a…
Women's Autonomy and Informed Consent in Microbicides Clinical Trials
ACHIEVING RESPECT FOR PERSONS is problematic in settings with concepts of autonomy that differ from Western values. For international research, women's autonomy to consent to participation is an increasingly contentious issue. We present data from ancillary studies conducted in preparation for a clinical trial testing the safety and efficacy of topical microbicides, used to prevent HIV infection. These ancillary studies were conducted in seven co…
A Framework for Examining the Sustained Acceptability of Microbicides
A Model Designed to Enhance Informed Consent
HIV prevention research in developing countries has resulted in increased attention to and discussion of ethical issues, particularly the issue of the quality of informed consent. We present a conceptual framework for an enhanced informed consent process, drawing on experiences garnered from domestic and international studies conducted by the HIV Prevention Trials Network, funded by the National Institutes of Health. This framework guides the dev…
Context of Acceptability of Topical Microbicides
Domains central to the effects of sexual relationships on the acceptability of a vaginal protection method were explored in 14 focus groups and 38 in‐depth interviews with women and men recruited from a health department's sexually transmitted infections (STI) and family planning clinics. Findings indicate that acceptability depended on a couple's relationship type, classified as serious, casual, or “new.” Potential barriers to communication abou…
Generation of Knowledge for Reproductive Health Technologies
Advances in new reproductive health technologies have surfaced an array of social and behavioral issues regarding decision‐making and use of these technologies, underscoring the need for research on such topics as reproductive health decision‐making, sexual practices, and norms and values for childbearing and family formation. Using topical microbicides as an example of a new method to prevent Sexually Transmitted infections (STIs), Human Immunod…
Covert Use of Topical Microbicides
The introduction of microbicides is still a few years away which affords researchers time to study the implications consequences and advisability of secret use. Covert use and its possible risks and benefits should be considered far in advance of product introduction. Well-informed introduction is paramount. Careful attention to product presentation and cultural context is necessary as some marketing strategies could either encourage or discourag…
The ‘natural’ body, God and contraceptive use in the southeastern United States
Data collected among African-American and Caucasian women and men in the southeastern USA indicate that participants' perceptions of nature, God's will and the human body influence reproductive health and decision-making. Attitudes about the health care system, pharmaceutical companies and government programmes for fertility regulation reinforce these views and may negatively affect willingness to use contraceptive methods consistently and correc…

Creating and Transforming Households
This book, first published in 1992, seeks an explanation of the pattern of sharp discrepancy of wage levels across the world-economy for work of comparable productivity. It explores how far such differences can be explained by the different structures of households as 'income-pooling units', examining three key variables: location in the core or periphery of the world-economy; periods of expansion versus periods of contraction in the world-econom…
