Stress-responsive biomarkers and sexual behaviors among young women in rural South Africa
BACKGROUND: Adolescence is a critical period when youth develop their decision-making skills and may engage in their first sexual encounters. Stress during this time can affect decision making; however, limited research has examined the relationship between biological stress correlates and sexual behavior among adolescent girls and young women (AGYW) in high-HIV incidence areas. PURPOSE: To examine whether stress-responsive biomarkers are longitu…
The adolescent HIV executive function and drumming (Ahead) study, a feasibility trial of a group drumming intervention amongst adolescents with HIV
AHEAD feasibility trial assessed the feasibility and acceptability of an 8-session group drumming programme aiming to improve executive function, depression and anxiety symptoms, and perceived social support in adolescents living with HIV in a rural low-income South African setting. Sixty-eight 12- to 19-year-old adolescents participated. They were individually randomised. The intervention arm (n = 34) received weekly hour-long group drumming ses…
Validation of Oxford Cognitive Screen
Short, reliable, easily administered executive function (EF) assessment tools are needed to measure EF in low‐ and middle‐income countries, particularly in sub‐Saharan Africa given the prevalence of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)‐associated neurocognitive disorder. We administered Oxford Cognitive Screen—Executive Function (OCS‐EF) to 932 rural South African females (mean age 19.7 years). OCS‐EF includes seven tasks: two hot inhibition tasks …
The relationship between executive function, risky behaviour and HIV in young women from the HPTN 068 study in rural South Africa
Executive function (EF) may predict sexual risk-taking and HIV risk in young women in rural South Africa. We tested associations between EF and seven risky behavioural outcomes: binge drinking, illicit substance use, unprotected vaginal sex, concurrent sexual relationships, transactional sex, herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2) infection, and HIV infection. We compared EF in young women with HIV to matched controls. 1080 young women underwent cog…
