Abstract:
|
We examined relationships between sexual risk-taking and negative affect following exposure to a narrative-based HIV-prevention video. The intervention was designed for young men who have sex with men (MSM) and takes a socially optimized learning approach, using a virtual social environment to simulate the interpersonal, emotional, and contextual cues of a sexual scenario. Higher levels of intervention-induced negative affect (particularly fear) were associated with a greater reduction in subsequent risk-taking for MSM who were exposed to an interactive version of the intervention in which they actively made decisions in the context of risk. No such associations were evident for men who passively viewed a noninteractive version. Moreover, the association was restricted to younger MSM, suggesting that developmental factors play a critical role in the intervention’s ability to link affect with subsequent behavior. Unlike traditional approaches, our intervention may result in the automatic encoding of affective cautionary signals. |

| MSM Risk Taking 1 Negative Affective Reactions to an HIV Prevention Intervention: Impact on Subsequent Sexual Risk Taking Among Young MSM Since its apex in 1992 AIDS diagnoses have decreased and stabilized at about 40 000 new cases annually (CDC 2006). Nevertheless HIV the virus that causes AIDS continues to pose a severe health threat to men who have sex with men (MSM) (CDC 2004). Although only 5% to 7% of adult males in the United States are MSM |

In addition to the IAV and Yoked conditions discussed here there was also a control condition (in which participants did not receive an intervention) and a one-on-one condition in which participants interacted with a real-life HIV-prevention counselor. Since we are arguing that interactive decision-making in the context of risk is critical to the effects of interest it is important to note in neither the |
