简要总结
The aim of this study is to examine the effect of social media intervention on the use of pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) by young men who have sex with men (YMSM) in the greater New Haven area.
详细描述
There are three specific aims of this study. In the first specific aim, two focus group discussions (FGDs) of YMSM will be conducted to assess the feasibility and acceptability of social media intervention. In the second specific aim of the study, a quasi-pre-post experimental study will be conducted to examine the effect of social media intervention on PrEP uptake (primary outcome) and PrEP use intention, HIV testing, PrEP knowledge, self-efficacy and social support (secondary outcome). In the third specific aim of the study, the most important topics around PrEP will be assessed on the Facebook page of the intervention group by conducting a content analysis.
