美国的“终结艾滋病流行”倡议依靠艾滋病热点来确定新资源、专业知识和技术的地理目标。然而，针对艾滋病毒传播和感染风险高的地方，而不仅仅是艾滋病毒发病率高的地方，采取干预措施可能更有效地降低艾滋病毒发病率和实现卫生公平。我们描述了一个基于网络的活动空间调查艾滋病毒的危险行为的实施和验证。该调查旨在收集地理信息，用于绘制风险行为热点以及洛杉矶县性网络的地理位置。调查设计团队开发了一系列地理空间问题，这些问题遵循3级结构，随着参与者在各个级别上的移动，这些问题在地理上变得更加精确。该调查通过9次认知访谈进行验证，并根据参与者的反馈进行迭代更新，直到主题和技术问题达到饱和。总的来说，通过认知访谈确定了4个主题：地理空间问题的功能，代表性和可访问性，隐私，以及调查的长度和理解。地理空间问题的易用性至关重要，因为许多与会者不熟悉制图软件。列入著名地点、地标和道路网络对于易用性至关重要。增加了许多与会者熟悉的谷歌地图界面，有助于收集准确和精确的位置信息。地理空间问题增加了调查的长度，因此有必要列入一些内容，以简化调查并加快调查速度。使用昵称来指代之前输入的地理位置限制了调查中出现的地理空间问题的数量，并缩短了完成调查所需的时间。参与者和研究团队之间的长期关系提高了披露与吸毒和性有关的敏感地理信息的舒适度。认知访谈的参与者强调了调查中的信任和包容性以及验证性语言如何减轻了与隐私和代表性相关的担忧。这项研究就使用基于网络的地图调查来收集与结束艾滋病毒流行相关的敏感位置信息的可行性提供了有希望的结果。在几个地理层面的数据收集将允许深入了解行为的空间回忆以及未来热点和网络特征的空间尺度的敏感性分析。这种设计还促进了为敏感主题提供位置信息的参与者的隐私和舒适度。实施这类调查的主要考虑因素包括参与者、社区合作伙伴或研究团队的信任，以克服与隐私和舒适度相关的担忧。在进行类似调查时，在制作地理空间组成部分时应考虑到当地的特点和知识。
The Ending the HIV Epidemic initiative in the United States relies on HIV hotspots to identify where to geographically target new resources, expertise, and technology. However, interventions targeted at places with high HIV transmission and infection risk, not just places with high HIV incidence, may be more effective at reducing HIV incidence and achieving health equity. We described the implementation and validation of a web-based activity space survey on HIV risk behaviors. The survey was intended to collect geographic information that will be used to map risk behavior hotspots as well as the geography of sexual networks in Los Angeles County. The survey design team developed a series of geospatial questions that follow a 3-level structure that becomes more geographically precise as participants move through the levels. The survey was validated through 9 cognitive interviews and iteratively updated based on participant feedback until the saturation of topics and technical issues was reached. In total, 4 themes were identified through the cognitive interviews: functionality of geospatial questions, representation and accessibility, privacy, and length and understanding of the survey. The ease of use for the geospatial questions was critical as many participants were not familiar with mapping software. The inclusion of well-known places, landmarks, and road networks was critical for ease of use. The addition of a Google Maps interface, which was familiar to many participants, aided in collecting accurate and precise location information. The geospatial questions increased the length of the survey and warranted the inclusion of features to simplify it and speed it up. Using nicknames to refer to previously entered geographic locations limited the number of geospatial questions that appeared in the survey and reduced the time taken to complete it. The long-standing relationship between participants and the research team improved comfort to disclose sensitive geographic information related to drug use and sex. Participants in the cognitive interviews highlighted how trust and inclusive and validating language in the survey alleviated concerns related to privacy and representation. This study provides promising results regarding the feasibility of using a web-based mapping survey to collect sensitive location information relevant to ending the HIV epidemic. Data collection at several geographic levels will allow for insights into spatial recall of behaviors as well as future sensitivity analysis of the spatial scale of hotspots and network characteristics. This design also promotes the privacy and comfort of participants who provide location information for sensitive topics. Key considerations for implementing this type of survey include trust from participants, community partners, or research teams to overcome concerns related to privacy and comfort. The implementation of similar surveys should consider local characteristics and knowledge when crafting the geospatial components.
