HIV Prevention Toolkit for HIV-negative Male Couples (MCAP)

28 mars 2019 uppdaterad av: Daniel J Feaster, University of Miami

Development of a HIV Prevention Toolkit for At-risk HIV-negative Male Couples

Though technology is integrated into the lives of our target population, use of any particular technology will depend on the content delivered, aesthetic appeal, and overall design. Based on the completion and analysis of data from Phase 1, the investigators were able to obtain feedback on HIV-negative male couples' attitudes toward the original content in the prevention toolkit modules. The research team, along with the web-developers, used this feedback to specifically tailor the content of the modules to fit the unique needs of the intervention's target population: at risk HIV-negative male couples. For Phase 2, the investigators conducted focus groups at each site to help identify strengths and potential areas for improvement of the prevention toolkit, which will be incorporated before piloting it in the intervention for Phase 3 of this project. After assessing the acceptability of the prevention toolkit, including the content of modules, aesthetic appeal, and overall design with HIV-negative male couples target population, the research team will pilot test whether the RCT with the prevention toolkit will help reduce HIV risk through formation and adherence to a sexual agreement, reduction in occurrences of condomless anal sex with casual sex partners, and increase testing behaviors among at-risk HIV-negative male couples. The interactive website, herein referred to as the "HIV prevention toolkit" will contain unique modules about sexual agreements and effective HIV prevention strategies.
