DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Surveillance estimates in the US indicate a resurgence of new HIV/AIDS cases among young men who have sex with men (YMSM).The investigator's career goal is to become an independent scientist who designs and implements Internet-based HIV-prevention interventions for YMSM given the Internet's promise for advancing HIV/AIDS research and diffusing HIV/AIDS prevention programs through YMSM's virtual networks. This Career Development Award focuses on strengthening the investigator's Internet research skills. The investigator will apply his new skills in a project that explores why and how YMSM use the Internet for dating and test how YMSM's intentions to use condoms with dates are associated with HIV/AIDS risk. Each training goal is matched to a research activity. Training goals are to:1) Master methodological strategies required for Internet- based data collection, measurement adaptation and intervention development;2) Develop, design and implement web-surveys that feature cutting-edge interactive enhancements to retain and maximize survey completion;3) Become proficient in the development and use of psychometrically-sound web-based assessments to study HIV/AIDS risk;4) Advance his training in the ethical conduct of web research, including considerations regarding recruitment, and data collection, management and security. The following specific aims guide the research proposal to: 1) Describe YMSM's dating experiences and discuss these experiences in the context of the opportunities and limitations they present for HIV/AIDS prevention; 2) Develop (or adapt) measures that capture YMSM's dating experiences and intentions to use condoms with their dates in an ethnically-diverse sample of YMSM (ages 18-24); 3) Describe and characterize YMSM's virtual social networks; 4) Assess the psychometric properties of measures regarding YMSM's romantic expectations and condom use with dates; and 5) Examine the role of virtual social networks characteristics, romantic expectations, condom use intentions with dates, and HIV/AIDS risk factors as predictors of condom use among YMSM who use the Internet to date. Findings will inform the development of a subsequent intervention.

描述（由申请人提供）：在美国的监测估计表明，新的艾滋病毒/艾滋病病例中的年轻男子与男性发生性关系（YMSM）的复苏。研究者的职业目标是成为一个独立的科学家谁设计和实施基于互联网的艾滋病毒预防干预YMSM鉴于互联网的承诺，促进艾滋病毒/艾滋病研究和传播艾滋病毒/艾滋病预防计划，通过YMSM的虚拟网络。这个职业发展奖的重点是加强调查员的互联网研究技能。调查人员将在一个项目中应用他的新技能，探讨YMSM为什么以及如何使用互联网约会，并测试YMSM使用避孕套的意图与艾滋病毒/艾滋病风险之间的关系。每个培训目标都与一项研究活动相匹配。培训目标是：（1）掌握基于互联网的数据收集、计量调整和干预措施制定所需的方法战略;（2）开发、设计和实施网络调查，其中包括先进的互动增强功能，以保持和最大限度地完成调查;（3）熟练开发和使用心理测量学上健全的网络评估，以研究艾滋病毒/艾滋病风险; 4）推进他在网络研究道德行为方面的培训，包括招聘、数据收集、管理和安全方面的考虑。以下具体目标指导研究建议：1）描述YMSM的约会经验，并在他们为艾滋病毒/艾滋病预防提供的机会和限制的背景下讨论这些经验; 2）开发（或调整）的措施，捕捉YMSM的约会经验和意图，使用避孕套与他们的日期在一个种族多样化的样本YMSM（18-24岁）; 3）描述和描述YMSM的虚拟社交网络; 4）评估关于YMSM的浪漫期望和避孕套使用的测量的心理测量学特性;和5）检查虚拟社交网络特征，浪漫的期望，安全套使用意图与日期的作用，和HIV/AIDS危险因素作为YMSM使用安全套的预测因子。调查结果将为后续干预措施的制定提供信息。
