很少有干预措施旨在改善艾滋病毒感染者的行为结果并降低艾滋病毒传播的风险,大多数干预措施侧重于针对艾滋病毒阴性者的预防工作。然而,艾滋病毒感染者对个人和公共健康构成风险(感染不同的艾滋病毒株、感染性病引起的健康并发症、与艾滋病毒状况不明的人持续发生性活动),这些风险已成为干预工作的重点。目前的论文探讨了一种有前途的新干预措施,即积极选择映射(PCM)干预措施,旨在提高感染艾滋病毒的非洲裔美国人可卡因吸烟者的安全套自我效能和使用率。该干预基于社会认知理论,并结合了经验支持的视觉表征策略(节点链接映射)。本文件的重点是干预的主要组成部分。
Few interventions have been designed to improve behavioural outcomes and reduce risk of HIV transmission of individuals living with HIV, most focusing on preventative efforts directed at individuals who are HIV‐negative. However, people living with HIV present individual and public health risks (infection with a different strain of HIV, health complications from contracting STD's, continued sexual activity with individuals with unknown HIV status) that have become the focus of intervention efforts. The current paper explores a promising new intervention, The Positive Choices Mapping (PCM) intervention, designed to increase condom self‐efficacy and use among African American crack cocaine smokers who are living with HIV. The intervention was grounded in Social Cognitive Theory and incorporated an empirically backed visual representation strategy (node‐link mapping). The focus of the current paper is on the main components of the intervention.
