Complementing SBIRT for Alcohol Misuse with SBIRT for Trauma
Reducing alcohol misuse is a priority for U.S. health officials considering that misuse of alcohol is a leading preventable cause of morbidity and mortality. Consequently, health centers are integrating Screening, Brief Intervention, and Referral to Treatment (SBIRT) for alcohol misuse within usual care. Although SBIRT is well validated among general patient samples, results have not generalized to drinkers with probable alcohol use disorder; mor…
Developing Effective Social Work University--Community Research Collaborations
In many instances, departments of social work in universities and community-based social services agencies have common interests in improving professional practice and advancing knowledge in the profession. Effective university-community research collaborations can help partners achieve these goals jointly, but to be effective these collaborative partnerships require considerable effort and understanding by all partners involved. This article pro…
Barriers and Facilitators of Transferring Research to Practice
Based on Simpson's program change model, this study explored personal and organizational barriers and facilitators of transferring a research-based innovation, motivational interviewing (MI), into the practices of county-employed case managers and counselors. A mixed-method perspective was employed whereby practitioner and consumer data were gathered via focus groups, and additional practitioner data were collected by means of a 2-wave panel surv…
Reactions of Heterosexual African American Men to Women's Condom Negotiation Strategies
This study describes responses of 172 single heterosexual African American men, ages 18 to 35, to condom negotiation attempts. Strategies used included reward, coercive, legitimate, expert, referent, and informational strategies, based on Raven's (1992) influence model. The purpose was (a) to identify strategies influencing participant acquiescence to request and (b) to identify predictors of participant compliance/refusal to comply with negotiat…
Participant recruitment in intervention research
The success of any intervention study is dependent on the ability of investigators to recruit and retain appropriate and sufficient numbers of research participants. Yet, investigators sometimes overestimate their ability to address the methodological issue of participant recruitment. This is detrimental to scientific integrity and especially challenging when a study's recruitment resources are limited. This article describes the research recruit…
Condom Use Negotiation in Heterosexual African American Adults
This study examined gender differences and preferences in the use of and response to six different styles of condom use negotiation with a hypothetical sexual partner of the opposite gender. Participants were 51 heterosexually active African American adults attending an inner-city community center. Participants completed a semistructured qualitative interview in which they were presented with six negotiation strategies based on Raven's 1992 Power…

Outcomes of a Randomized Small-Group HIV Prevention Intervention Trial for People with Serious Mental Illness
Psychosocial Issues in the Era of New Aids Treatments from the Perspective of Persons Living with HIV
In the past, HIV disease meant an almost invariably downward health course. New highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) regimens have improved the health outlook for many persons living with HIV/AIDS but may create new psychological and coping challenges. In this study, open-ended, in-depth interviews were undertaken with an ethnically diverse sample of 44 purposively selected men and women with HIV disease who were on HAART regimens. The in…
Barriers to care among persons living with HIV/Aids in urban and rural areas
People living with HIV disease, particularly those in small towns and rural areas, face many barriers that prevent them from receiving important life-care services. We developed the Barriers to Care Scale (BACS) to delineate the problem severity of factors that impede care and service provision among a sample of 226 men and women living with HIV disease in a single midwestern state. Both urban and rural respondents indicated that major barriers t…
