简要总结
As part of Yale's Play2Prevent (www.Play2Prevent.org) program to develop videogame-based interventions targeting risk reduction and prevention in youth and young adults, this study is designed to develop a paper prototype and intervention design manual of an online social-network game, One Night Stan, with the goal of risk reduction and HIV/STI prevention in young black women. The ultimate plan is to incorporate focus group participants input and feedback into the development of a conceptual model, intervention manual, and videogame intervention prototype. This prototype will then be tested using 20 participants and will utilize a pre-post design to evaluate the effectiveness of the program.
详细描述
The specific aims of this study are to:
Develop an online social network game for HIV/STI risk reduction and prevention by conducting a first set of focus groups with a total of 25 participants (5 focus groups with 5 participants each) in order to better understand preferences for online social network and gaming platforms, characteristics and design.
These collected data, established theoretical constructs, and the literature will be harnessed to develop a conceptual model for HIV/STI risk reduction and prevention in this specific population of women.
From the data collected and the new conceptual model, an intervention manual will be created that will incorporate a culturally and socially-tailored online social network game intervention paper prototype and design manual. In an iterative fashion, a second series of focus groups will be conducted (5 groups with 5 participants each for a total of 25 participants) to refine the intervention.
To pilot test the prototype intervention we will determine, in a pre-post design: (a) the intervention's acceptability and feasibility based on self-report data on the game experience and (b) preliminary evidence of the efficacy of the intervention collecting data on 1) HIV/STI knowledge 2) intentions/attitudes regarding condom use and HIV/STI partner testing 3) self-efficacy to insist on condom use and HIV/STI partner testing 4) self-efficacy and beliefs related to sexual risk behaviors, 4) perceived social norms, and 5) behaviors related to condom use and partner HIV/STI testing.

结局指标
主要结局
Overall Incidence of Risk Behaviors Associated with HIV/STI Transmission
时间窗: 2 Weeks
The program will be assessed by determining if a decrease in the incidence of risk behaviors associated with HIV/STI transmission by participants occurred after 2 weeks exposure to the program.
Incidence of Condom Use
时间窗: 2 Weeks
The program will be assessed by determining if an increase in the incidence of condom use by participants occurred after 2 weeks exposure to the program.
