一个具体的会话代理可以作为一个关系代理，并提供信息，动机和行为技能。为了评估我的个人健康指南的可行性，可接受性和初步疗效，一个基于理论的移动交付体现对话代理干预，以提高坚持抗逆转录病毒治疗的年轻非洲裔美国男性与男性发生性关系，我们进行了这项前瞻性试点研究，采用3个月的前后设计。结果的措施包括坚持，可接受性，可行性，前与后的健康素养，和前与后的自我效能。有43人参加。药丸计数依从性> 80%从基线时的62%提高到随访时的88%（p = 0.05）。APP的可接受性很高。确定的可行性问题包括因计划外的参与者应用程序删除而导致的使用数据丢失。健康素养提高，而自我效能是高的基线和后续行动。我的个人健康指南的这项试点研究证明了在这一重要人群中提高依从性的可接受性和初步疗效。
An embodied conversational agent can serve as a relational agent and provide information, motivation, and behavioral skills. To evaluate the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary efficacy of My Personal Health Guide, a theory-based mobile-delivered embodied conversational agent intervention to improve adherence to antiretroviral therapy in young African American men who have sex with men, we conducted this prospective pilot study using a 3-month pre-post design. Outcome measures included adherence, acceptability, feasibility, pre versus post health literacy, and pre versus post self-efficacy. There were 43 participants. Pill count adherence > 80% improved from 62% at baseline to 88% at follow-up (p = .05). The acceptability of the app was high. Feasibility issues identified included loss of usage data from unplanned participant app deletion. Health literacy improved whereas self-efficacy was high at baseline and follow-up. This pilot study of My Personal Health Guide demonstrated acceptability and preliminary efficacy in improving adherence in this important population.
