这项研究的目的是确定一项旨在降低即将获释的成年男性囚犯中艾滋病毒/艾滋病感染风险的干预措施的影响。这项分析基于116名成年男性囚犯的随机抽样，这些人在参加艾滋病毒/艾滋病和减少再次犯罪风险干预之前和重新融入社区三个月后再次招募和采访。该干预计划旨在减少危险的性行为以及酒精、烟草和其他与药物有关的行为。它有一个随机的拉丁方设计来评估四种情况下的成年男性罪犯。结果表明，在三个月的时间里，对服刑人员的干预有效地降低了性自我期望和物质使用，提高了避孕套使用的自我效能。
The purpose of this study was to determine the impact of an intervention seeking to reduce risk for HIV/AIDS infection among a sample of soon-to-be-released adult male inmates. This analysis is based on a random sample of 116 adult male prisoners recruited and interviewed prior to their participation in an HIV/AIDS and recidivism risk reduction intervention and again three months after they were reintegrated into the community. The intervention program was designed to reduce risky sexual behaviors and alcohol, tobacco, and other drug-related behaviors. It had a randomized, Latin-square design to evaluate adult male offenders across four conditions. Findings indicate that the intervention for the inmate population was effective in reducing sexual self-expectation and substance use and increasing condom use self-efficacy over a three-month period.
