Ethnic Discrimination in Social Media and Depressive Symptoms Among Hispanic Emerging Adult College Students
With the rise of social media and the potential for ethnic discrimination on these platforms, this study examined the relationship between depressive symptoms, social media discrimination, 'powerful others,' and emotional self-efficacy with a convenience sample of 628 Hispanic emerging adult college students from Florida ( n = 401) and Texas ( n = 227). Results from a hierarchical multiple regression model indicate that higher social media discri…

Evaluating Cross-Sectional Associations Between Cannabis Use and Prospective Memory in People with HIV
Prospective memory (PM) deficits are common among people with HIV (PWH) and are linked to poor clinical outcomes. Risk factors for PM deficits in PWH are poorly understood. While cannabis use is associated with worse PM in people without HIV, it is unclear whether this association generalizes to PWH. Three hundred and seven PWH (79% with regular cannabis use) completed the Memory for Intentions Test (MIST). Associations between regular use (vs. n…

A Qualitative Exploration of Covid-19 Vaccine Hesitancy Among Hispanic/Latine and African American and Black Middle-Aged and Older Adults in South Florida
Racial and ethnic health disparities are more conspicuous in the United States since the start of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. While the urgency of these disparities was already alarming, the pandemic has exacerbated longstanding issues in health equity, disproportionate impacts, and social determinants of health. Vaccine hesitancy was a crucial factor during the U.S. COVID-19 vaccination campaign. We conducted a qualitative …
Comorbidities among persons living with HIV (PLWH) in Florida
People living with HIV (PLWH) experience a higher rate of age-related comorbidities at younger ages. Understanding common comorbidities among PLWH and their relationship to one another could be significant in improving aging for PLWH. The goal of the present study is to identify the most common comorbidities among PLWH and the relationship between them using network analysis. We used abstracted electronic medical record (EMR) data of PLWH from th…
Acceptability and Feasibility of a Tai Chi/Qigong Intervention for Older People Living With HIV
Condom use likelihood within the context of PrEP and TasP among men who have sex with men in Florida
Despite the development of targeted interventions for men who have sex with men, this population continues to comprise the majority of new HIV diagnoses. Though condoms are highly efficacious, some sexually active MSM use sero-sorting as a method of HIV prevention. This study aimed to characterize: (1) differences between partner sero-status and condom use likelihood, and (2) demographic, behavioral, and knowledge-related factors influencing cond…

HIV testing intentions and cognitive reappraisal among Latino emerging adults
which involves reframing the meaning of an event to modify one's emotional response to it may potentially help to regulate these emotions and facilitate decisions to get tested for HIV. In this exploratory study, we examined the association between cognitive reappraisal and HIV testing intentions and whether this association differs by gender. Cross-sectional data were collected from a convenience sample of 157 Latino emerging adults aged 18-25 y…
PrEP awareness among people living with HIV in Florida
In 2017, Florida ranked 2nd nationally in prevalence and incidence rates of HIV infections in the United States. Due to the high burden of HIV and low viral suppression in Florida, it is of increased importance to study methods of HIV prevention such as preexposure prophylaxis(PrEP) in this state. Our study aimed to examine correlates of PrEP awareness among PLWH in Florida and describe patterns of PrEP awareness/information sources. Using data c…
The Florida Cohort study
In 2013, Florida had the highest rate of new HIV infections and only 56% of persons living with HIV (PLWH) were virally suppressed. In response, we initiated a new HIV cohort in Florida to better understand issues affecting HIV health outcomes. This manuscript will describe the procedures of the Florida Cohort; summarize information regarding enrollment, follow-up, and findings to date; and discuss challenges and lessons learned during the establ…

Self-efficacy and HIV testing among Latino emerging adults
Latino emerging adults in the United States are at a high risk of HIV and have a low prevalence of HIV testing. This study examined the association between self-efficacy for HIV testing, distress tolerance and lifetime history of HIV testing, and tested the moderating effect of distress tolerance and sexual risk behaviors on the association between self-efficacy and lifetime history of HIV testing. Data were collected from a cross-sectional sampl…

Perceived neighborhood social cohesion moderates the relationship between neighborhood structural disadvantage and adolescent depressive symptoms
General and gay-related racism experienced by Latino gay men
Latino gay men report experiences of racial discrimination within and outside the gay community. This study focused on correlates of racism within general and gay contexts. Racism was assessed in a probability sample of 911 Latino gay men recruited from 3 U.S. cities.

Alcohol use severity and depressive symptoms among late adolescent Hispanics
Changes in Family Cohesion and Acculturative Stress among Recent Latino Immigrants
Family relationships can serve as an important source of support during the acculturation process; yet, how the stress related to acculturation, or acculturative stress, may impact family functioning across time is not clear. Participants (n = 479), between the ages of 18-34 were recruited using respondent driven sampling methodology. Findings suggest family cohesion decreased over time; however, it decreased less for those reporting more accultu…
Qualitative analysis of social support and conflict among Mexican and Mexican‐American disaster survivors

Using unstructured interviews, 25 Mexicans/Mexican Americans (14 women, 11 men) were asked to recount the ways that they received support, as well as the ways they experienced conflict. Interviews occurred across three cities: Guadalajara, Jalisco (n = 9), Homestead, Florida (n = 6), and Puerto Angel, Oaxaca (n = 10). Recurrent t…

Findings emphasize the importance of taking relational and cultural context into account when developing HIV prevention programs for Latina women. Interventions targeting English speaking Latina women should focus on women being more proactive in their sexual health; interventions focused on Spanish speaking women might target their prevention messages to either men or couples

Diversion of Benzodiazepines Through Healthcare Sources
Benzodiazepines (BZ) are often diverted from legal sources to illicit markets at various points in the distribution process beginning with a pharmaceutical manufacturer, followed by healthcare providers, and finally, to the intended users. Little is known about the extent of BZ diversion involving distribution points directly related to healthcare sources versus points further down the distribution chain. The present study examines the scope of B…

Condom use preferences among Latinos in Miami-Dade
Among Latinos, cultural values such as machismo and marianismo may promote inconsistent condom use representing a significant risk factor for HIV infection. Yet there continues to be a need for additional research to explore the influence these cultural values have on Latino men and women's condom use attitudes and behaviours given increasing HIV rates of HIV infection among Latinos. The purpose of this study was to explore further Latino traditi…

Racial/ethnic disparities in delayed HIV diagnosis among men who have sex with men, Florida, 2000–2014
Only about 85% of men who have sex with men (MSM) with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) have been tested for and diagnosed with HIV. Racial/ethnic disparities in HIV risk and HIV care outcomes exist within MSM. We examined racial/ethnic disparities in delayed HIV diagnosis among MSM. Males aged ≥13 reported to the Florida Enhanced HIV/AIDS Reporting System 2000-2014 with a reported HIV transmission mode of MSM were analyzed. We defined delayed …
