A Randomized Comparison Trial Testing Two Culturally Adapted HIV Prevention Approaches for Native Americans Reducing Trauma Symptoms Versus Substance Misuse
The Republic Shall Be Kept Clean
Can the framework of settler colonialism help us better understand late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century antileft repression? This is the core question asked and answered by Tariq D. Khan's impressive book. Khan, drawing on a wide range of theorists and digging into multiple case studies, makes a mostly convincing case. He maintains that the people who zealously denounced and aggressively fought anarchists, communists, socialists, and radi…

A feasibility study of the use of HIV self-tests in young men who have sex with men
Studies on HIV self-testing (HIV-ST) have been limited to adults (age 18+). The study assessed use of HIV-ST among a diverse group of young men who have sex with men (YMSM) in the United States (US) and assessed differences in uptake by demographic characteristics and requirements for parental consent. This study demonstrated feasibility of HIV-ST for YMSM as young as 14 years of age, which suggests potential for increasing HIV testing in this yo…

The Long Deep Grudge
Those in search of a fast-paced book that is both inspiring and tragic will profit from reading Toni Gilpin's The Long Deep Grudge: A Story of Big Capital, Radical Labor, and Class War in the American Heartland. This well-researched study explores decades of what Gilpin aptly calls “ceaseless class warfare” at International Harvester's production plants (282). She has produced the go-to book about labor unrest at the multilocational agricultural …
The 1886 Southwest Railroad Strike, J. West Goodwin's Law and Order League, and the Blacklisting of Martin Irons
This article explores blacklisting practices following the massive 1886 Southwest strike staged by the Knights of Labor (KOL) against Jay Gould's railroad empire. It focuses mostly on strike leader Martin Irons and blacklisting advocate and newspaperman J. West Goodwin. The strike, which started in Sedalia, Missouri, before spreading to other states, was a disaster for the KOL. The union declined in its aftermath chiefly because of the repression…
Homonegative Victimization and Perceived Stress among Adolescent Sexual Minority Males
Purpose: Research suggests social support may protect sexual minorities from the harmful effects of victimization that undermine mental and sexual health wellness; however, this relationship has been underexplored among a diverse youth population. We examined the association between lifetime homonegative victimization, perceived stress in the last month, and resilience factors among a diverse sample of adolescent sexual minority males. Methods: D…
Changes in high-risk sexual behavior, HIV and other STI testing, and PrEP use during the Covid-19 pandemic in a longitudinal cohort of adolescent men who have sex with men 13 to 18 years old in the Un…
The Enduring Significance of Black and Multiracial Working-Class History
Honor, face, and dignity norm endorsement among diverse North American adolescents
This article examined the psychometric properties and validity of a new self-report instrument for assessing the social norms that coordinate social relations and define self-worth within three normative systems. A survey that assesses endorsement of honor, face, and dignity norms was evaluated in ethnically diverse adolescent samples in the U.S. (Study 1a) and Canada (Study 2). The internal structure of the survey was consistent with the concept…

C hristian W right . Carbon County, USA
Christian Wright has produced a meticulously researched book about a topic familiar to labor historians: coal miners and their numerous struggles. Yet unlike many others, Wright’s nine-chapter study, Carbon County, USA: Miners for Democracy in Utah and the West, focuses on western miners, especially those in Utah, a region that has received less scholarly attention than other class-struggle hot spots like mining communities in Alabama, Kentucky, …
A randomized controlled efficacy trial of an mHealth HIV prevention intervention for sexual minority young men
ClinicalTrials.gov number, NCT03167606, registered May 30, 2017
Awareness, Willingness, and Perceived Efficacy of Pre-exposure Prophylaxis among Adolescent Sexual Minority Males
Third‐Party Intervention in Peer Victimization
African American, European American, Mexican American, and Native American adolescents (N = 270) described how they felt and appraised their own actions in response to a peer's victimization. Analyses compared times they had calmed victim emotions, amplified anger, avenged, and resolved conflicts peacefully. Adolescents felt prouder, more helpful, more like a good friend, and expected more peer approval after calming and resolving than after ampl…
Personal Outcomes in Community‐based Participatory Research Partnerships
Community-based participatory research (CBPR) has been embraced by diverse populations to address health inequities within their communities. CBPR has been shown to produce favorable health outcomes, but little is known about personal outcomes (e.g., individual growth and capacities) resulting from the direct involvement in a CBPR partnership. We empirically examine which CBPR partnerships' processes and practices are associated with personal out…
Tangled
Travis Sutton Byrd's excellent book about union struggles in the early 1930s will undoubtedly interest labor and southern historians, promising to stimulate productive discussions about trade union and official politics, the region's political economy, and class tensions. Byrd offers highly detailed, blow-by-blow accounts of numerous high-stakes labor conflicts involving the United Textile Workers of America and the communist National Textile Wor…
Culture-centeredness in community-based participatory research
Health education research emphasizes the importance of cultural understanding and fit to achieve meaningful psycho-social research outcomes, community responsiveness and external validity to enhance health equity. However, many interventions address cultural fit through cultural competence and sensitivity approaches that are often superficial. The purpose of this study was to better situate culture within health education by operationalizing and …
Randomized Control Trial of Culturally Adapted Cognitive Processing Therapy for PTSD Substance Misuse and HIV Sexual Risk Behavior for Native American Women
An overlooked sequela of HIV risk is trauma exposure, yet few HIV interventions address trauma exposure, mental health, and substance misuse. In a two-arm randomized controlled trial 73 Native American women were randomized to a culturally-adapted Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) or 6-weeks waitlist. Outcomes assessed: PTSD symptom severity, alcohol use frequency, substance abuse or dependence diagnosis, and high-risk sexual behavior defined as…

Scholarship on the Rise of the Right
While the explosion of studies on the rise of the right has undoubtedly enriched our understanding of these powerful forces and individuals, we are due for critical assessments of these studies from the left. Over the past few decades, dismissals of class-based interpretations of history have plagued this type of scholarship. Expressed by some of the profession's most institutionally privileged members, such dismissals have led to a narrowing of …
Development of a Mixed Methods Investigation of Process and Outcomes of Community-Based Participatory Research
This article describes a mixed methods study of community-based participatory research (CBPR) partnership practices and the links between these practices and changes in health status and disparities outcomes. Directed by a CBPR conceptual model and grounded in indigenous-transformative theory, our nation-wide, cross-site study showcases the value of a mixed methods approach for better understanding the complexity of CBPR partnerships across diver…

Hormone replacement therapy, cancer, controversies, and women’s health
Routine acceptance of use of hormone replacement therapy (HRT) was shattered in 2002 when results of the largest HRT randomised clinical trial, the women’s health initiative, indicated that long term use of oestrogen plus progestin HRT not only was associated with increased risk of cancer but, contrary to expectations, did not decrease, and may have increased, risk of cardiovascular disease. In June 2004 a group of historians, epidemiologists, bi…

Capacity Building from the inside Out
Current human subject research training modules fail to capture ethically relevant cultural aspects of research involving American Indian and Alaska Native (AI/AN) community members. Applying a Community Engaged Research (CEnR) approach, we adapted the Collaborative IRB Training Initiative training module "assessing risk and benefits." In a two-arm randomized controlled trial, followed by debriefing interviews, we evaluated module acceptability a…

Efficacy of Interventions in Improving Highly Active Antiretroviral Therapy Adherence and HIV-1 RNA Viral Load
Adherence to highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) is generally suboptimal, limiting the effectiveness of HAART. This meta-analytic review examined whether behavioral interventions addressing HAART adherence are successful in increasing the likelihood of a patient attaining 95% adherence or an undetectable HIV-1 RNA viral load (VL). We searched electronic databases from January 1996 to September 2005, consulted with experts in the field, a…
Assessing Antiretroviral Adherence via Electronic Drug Monitoring and Self-Report
Modeling HIV transmission risk among Mozambicans prior to their initiating highly active antiretroviral therapy
Understanding sexual behavior and assessing transmission risk among people living with HIV-1 is crucial for effective HIV-1 prevention. We describe sexual behavior among HIV-positive persons initiating highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) in Beira, Mozambique. We present a Bernoulli process model (tool available online) to estimate the number of sexual partners who would acquire HIV-1 as a consequence of sexual contact with study particip…
Conceptualizing antiretroviral adherence in Beijing, China
International health experts agree that China is on the verge of an AIDS crisis. In response, the Chinese government initiated the "Four Frees and One Care" policy in 2003 to decrease economic barriers and increase access to antiretroviral therapies for people with HIV. However, long-term treatment success requires not only access, but high rates of medication adherence. This qualitative interview study with 29 persons receiving HIV care at Beiji…
Discussion and revision of the mathematical modeling tool described in the previously published article “Modeling HIV Transmission risk among Mozambicans prior to their initiating highly active antire…
Mathematical models are increasingly used in social and behavioral studies of HIV transmission; however, model structures must be chosen carefully to best answer the question at hand and conclusions must be interpreted cautiously. In Pearson et al. (2007), we presented a simple analytically tractable deterministic model to estimate the number of secondary HIV infections stemming from a population of HIV-positive Mozambicans and to evaluate how th…
