非裔美国少女感染艾滋病毒的风险不成比例。尽管存在许多以证据为基础的减少风险干预措施,但传播和实施资源仍然有限,而且艾滋病毒感染风险最高的人群仍然无法获得预防服务。通过互联网提供减少艾滋病毒风险规划,有望成为扩大现有预防工作覆盖面和克服与传统服务提供有关的障碍的一种机制。本文(1)详细介绍了创建SiHLEWeb的开发过程,SiHLEWeb是一个基于证据的、文化知情的艾滋病毒预防项目的网络改编版本,传统上通过面对面的小组形式交付给非裔美国女性青少年;(2)介绍了在18名非裔美国女孩(13-18岁)中进行的定量和定性可用性测试的结果。结果表明,用户发现该网站提高了知识和学习,有帮助,使用效率高,总体上很有吸引力。用户反映了对网站导航的一些担忧。讨论了健康预防规划在互联网上提供的影响。
African-American adolescent girls are at disproportionate risk for HIV infection. Although numerous evidence-based risk-reduction interventions exist, dissemination and implementation resources remain limited, and prevention services remain notably inaccessible to the very populations at highest risk for HIV infection. Internet delivery of HIV risk-reduction programming has promise as a mechanism for extending the reach of existing prevention efforts and overcoming barriers associated with traditional service delivery. This article (1) details the development process for the creation of SiHLEWeb, a web-adapted version of an evidence-based, culturally informed HIV prevention program traditionally delivered to female African-American adolescents via an in-person group format, and (2) presents findings from quantitative and qualitative usability testing conducted among 18 African-American girls (13-18 years). Results suggest that users found the website improved knowledge and learning, was helpful, efficient to use, and generally attractive. Users reported some concerns about website navigation. Implications for Internet delivery of health prevention programming are discussed.
