This study examined whether preventive counseling of HIV-positive men (N= 255) was associated with self-disclosure of serostatus to sex partners. Men who reported being counseled at posttest and at their current HIV clinic to disclose their serostatus to partners were more likely to have done so than men counseled only at posttest, only at the HIV clinic, or not counseled at either site. Disclosure increased with the number of times counseled at the HIV clinic. These patterns held for HIV-negative partners, but not for HIV-positive or HIV-unknown partners. Disclosure to HIV-negative partners was associated with safer sexual practices. The findings suggest that counseling interventions for HIV-positive men, when delivered by multiple sources, may provide an effective means of increasing disclosure to sexual partners.(PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2016 APA, all rights reserved)
