Serostatus disclosure, seroconcordance, partner relationship, and unprotected anal intercourse among hiv-positive latino men who have sex with men  / Paul J. Poppen ... [et al.].

Aids Education and Prevention, 17 (2005) 3 (june), p. 227-237
bron: Aids Education and Prevention jaargang: 17 (2005) 3 (june), p. 227-237
samenvatting: This article examined, in a sample of 219 HIV-positive Latino men who have sex with men (MSM), a set of three variables that can shape the context of sexual encounters between men and influence sexual risk behaviors: disclosure of positive HIV serostatus, seroconcordance of partners, and relationship between partners. Participants from Boston, New York, and Washington completed a survey in English or Spanish.

Perceived Partner Serostatus, Attribution of Responsibility for Prevention of HIV Transmission, and Sexual Risk Behavior with "MAIN" Partner Among Adults Living with HIV  / Daniel S. Hong ... [et al.].

Aids Education and Prevention, 18 (2006) 2 (april), p. 150-162
bron: Aids Education and Prevention jaargang: 18 (2006) 2 (april), p. 150-162
samenvatting: Persons living with HIV (PLH) often attribute HIV status to sexual partners based on observable partner characteristics. The present study investigated the relationship of sexual behavior with most recent 'main' partner to that partner's perceived serostatus among 1,232 PLH interviewed in clinics and community agencies in Los Angeles, California. PLH who believed their most recent main partner to be HIV-negative more often identified partner appearance as a basis for their perceptions than those who believed their most recent main partner to be HIV-positive. PLH who perceived their most recent main partner as HIV-negative were more likely to assume responsibility for partner protection and always to use condoms, and less likely to report recent unprotected vaginal or anal sex with that partner. Unprotected receptive anal intercourse with their most recent main partner was less common among African American, Latino, and White participants who believed that partner to be HIV-negative. Although PLH appear protective toward HIV-negative main partners, interventions to encourage valid methods of identifying partner serostatus are needed.

Positive, Negative, Unknown : Assumptions of HIV Status Among HIV-Positive Men Who Have Sex With Men  / Jeffrey T. Parsons ... [et al.].

Aids Education and Prevention, 18 (2006) 2 (april), p. 139-149
bron: Aids Education and Prevention jaargang: 18 (2006) 2 (april), p. 139-149
samenvatting: Serosorting (i.e., engaging in unprotected sex with partners known to be of the same serostatus) can be a difficult process for men who have sex with men (MSM) who frequently make assumptions about their partners' serostatus. This process can be further complicated by a partner's dishonesty as well as other individual and contextual factors. The present study specifically examined how assumptions of serostatus made about unknown serostatus partners impact on the sexual behavior of 110 alcohol-abusing HIV-positive MSM. Although previous research has shown that HIV-positive MSM are more likely to serosort with other known HIV-positive men than with known HIV-negative men, our data suggest that unprotected sex behavior may not be specifically driven by whether or not they made assumptions of seroconcordance or serodiscordance. The types of assumptions these HIV-positive MSM made about their unknown status sexual partners and the basis for such assumptions were also examined. Owing to the ambiguities involved in assumptions of a partner's serostatus in sexual encounters, the `unknown status' partner category is analytically distinct from `known status' categories, and needs to be more fully explored because of its impact on perceived serosorting, rather than actual serosorting, among HIV-positive men.

HIV Serostatus Disclosure to Sexual Partners among HIV-Positive Methamphetamine-Using Gay, Bisexual, and Other Men Who Have Sex With Men  / Karen C. McCready, Perry N. Halkitis.

Aids Education and Prevention, 20 (2008) 1 (Feb), p. 15-29
bron: Aids Education and Prevention jaargang: 20 (2008) 1 (Feb), p. 15-29
samenvatting: Nineteen semistructured interviews with HIV-positive methamphetamine?using gay, bisexual, or other MSM were analyzed qualitatively and using Critical Incident Measure (CIM). Among those who reported successful disclosure, themes regarding disclosure strategies and precontact disclosure emerged. Although few men spontaneously discussed the association between methamphetamine and disclosure, those who did reported less inclination to ascertain partner serostatus while under the influence. Men who reported disclosure to an HIV-seroconcordant partner were more likely to report not exchanging semen in this encounter compared with nondisclosers, whereas condom nonuse emerged as a theme across disclosure groups. Most of those who reported nondisclosure described their most recent encounter under the influence as occurring in the context of a public sex environment and/or with multiple partners. Understanding the interaction between methamphetamine use and serostatus disclosure practices, particularly among HIV-positive men, and how this interaction impacts sexual risk-taking has important implications for HIV prevention work.

Barriers and Facilitators of HIV Disclosure : Perspectives from HIV-Infected Men Who Have Sex with Men  / Jeffrey R. Driskell ... [et al.].

Journal of Hiv/Aids & Social Services, 7 (2008) 2, p. 135-156
bron: Journal of Hiv/Aids & Social Services jaargang: 7 (2008) 2 , p. 135-156
samenvatting: HIV disclosure among sexually active HIV-infected men who have sex with men (MSM) is a complex phenomenon. To better understand factors that impact the decision-making process regarding HIV disclosure among HIV-infected MSM, the present study analyzed content from previously conducted counseling sessions where HIV disclosure was selected as the primary focus of the session. The counselor/participant dialogue was audio-recorded, transcribed, and analyzed qualitatively using content analysis. Factors identified as barriers that deter HIV-infected MSM from disclosing include rejection, issues of confidentiality, possible missed sexual opportunities, partner's HIV status, deferred responsibility, sexual partner type, and public sex environments. Participants identified ethical obligation, the potential for a dating relationship, timing of disclosure, and bidirectional communication as facilitators of disclosure. Findings can be used for policy development as well as to guide social workers and other healthcare providers' assessment and development of clinical interventions addressing sexual health among HIV-infected MSM as it relates to HIV disclosure.

An Intervention to Assist Men Who Have Sex With Men Disclose their Serostatus to Casual Sex Partners : Results from a Pilot Study  / Julianne M. Serovich ... [et al.].

Aids Education and Prevention, 21 (2009) 3 (june), p. 207-219
bron: Aids Education and Prevention jaargang: 21 (2009) 3 (june), p. 207-219
samenvatting: This article reports pilot data from a newly developed disclosure intervention and associated measures specifically tailored for disclosure to casual sexual partners. Treatment consisted of a four-session, theoretically driven intervention focusing on the costs and benefits of disclosure. Using a randomized control, crossover design 77 men were randomized into one of three conditions (wait-list control, facilitator only, and computer and facilitator). Results of the study suggest that facilitated administration of the pilot intervention was effective in reducing mean scores on the HIV disclosure behavior and attitude scales and that these reductions were both statistically and practically significant.

Moderators of Sexual Behavior in Gay Men  / David A. Moskowitz, Michael E. Roloff.

Archives of Sexual Behavior, 39 (2010) 4 (aug), p. 950-958
bron: Archives of Sexual Behavior jaargang: 39 (2010) 4 (aug), p. 950-958
samenvatting: We investigated factors that might moderate the association between sexual behavior desires and sexual behavior enactments in gay men. Condom eschewal, number of STIs, HIV serostatus, age, and relationship status were each hypothesized to moderate this association. An Internet survey collected data from 219 self-identifying gay men. Results indicated that sexual behavior desires and enactments were highly correlated, and of the five moderators tested, four varied this association. Condom eschewers had a stronger association between desires and enactments than condom users. Gay men with fewer STIs/STDs (excluding HIV) also had a stronger association between the two variables. HIV serostatus did not exclusively moderate the association. Rather, a three-way interaction was produced such that HIV-positive men with STIs had a stronger association between sexual behavior desires and enactments than HIV-negative men with STIs. Finally, gay men in monogamous relationships were least likely to have their desires associated with enactments. Age was not found to be a significant moderator. Overall, we concluded the moderators representing sexual health and sexual health behaviors were most influential over the enactment of sexual behavior desires.

Coping, Drug Use, and Religiosity/Spirituality in Relation to HIV Serostatus among Gay and Bisexual Men  / Melvin C. Hampton, Perry N. Halkitis, Jacqueline S. Mattis.

Aids Education and Prevention, 22 (2010) 5 (oct), p. 417-429
bron: Aids Education and Prevention jaargang: 22 (2010) 5 (oct), p. 417-429
samenvatting: Cross-sectional data were collected on a sample of 259 gay and bisexual, male-identified individuals as part of a larger study of the psychosocial functioning of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender persons. Analyses considered differences between HIV-positive and HIV-negative men in relation to active and religious coping strategies; avoidant coping strategies (specifically, illicit drug use); and the psychosocial states of anxiety, hostility, and depression in relation to self-reported HIV-status of the participants. As compared with HIV-negative men, the HIV positive participants indicated a greater likelihood of engaging in illicit substance use within the previous 3 months, as well as higher levels of both active and religious coping strategies. Illicit substance use also was found to be related to higher levels of depression, anxiety, and hostility. A multivariate model indicated a significant difference in substance-based and active coping strategies among the men surveyed, with persons with a self-reported HIV-positive serostatus endorsing higher levels of both strategies. These results and their implications for prevention and future research are discussed, rooted in the understanding that a complex reality for coping is often enacted by HIV-positive men.

HIV Status Differences in Venues Where Highly Sexually Active Gay and Bisexual Men Meet Sex Partners: Results from a Pilot Study  / Christian Grov, Sarit A. Golub, Jeffrey T. Parsons.

Aids Education and Prevention, 22 (2010) 6 (dec), p. 496-508
bron: Aids Education and Prevention jaargang: 22 (2010) 6 (dec), p. 496-508
samenvatting: Highly sexually active men who have sex with men (MSM) are a critical population in which to provide HIV prevention and education. To inform the tailoring and placement of such services, this study reports on HIV status differences in nine venues where 50 highly sexually active MSM (defined as those who had nine or more male partners in the past 90 days) met recent male sex partners. HIV-positive men (95%) were significantly more likely than HIV-negative/unknown status men (68%) to have used the Internet to meet partners but were less likely to meet partners in bars/clubs (37% vs. 71%). Although both HIV-positive and HIV-negative/unknown status men reported a sizable portion of their total partners from the Internet (55% and 29%, respectively), HIV-positive MSM also gravitated toward meeting partners through sexual networks (private sex parties and via other sex partners), whereas HIV-negative/unknown status also gravitated toward gay bars/clubs and public cruising. Overall, HIV-positive men were more likely to report unprotected anal sex than to HIV-negative/unknown status men. Among HIV-negative/unknown status men, the highest rates of unprotected sex were with men they met online (20% of online partners) and through other sex partners (25% of these partners). Efforts targeted toward highly sexually active HIV-negative/unknown status men might be best positioned online and in gay bars/clubs, whereas those tailored for highly sexually active HIV-positive men may consider targeting the Internet and peers/sexual networks.

samenvatting: This study explored the extent to which social network, racism experienced, homophobia experienced, and sexual identity predicted condom use in a convenience sample of 148 African American Men Who Have Sex with Men (MSM). In multinomial logistic regression analyses, homophobia experienced was the strongest indicator of condom use when all the other predictors were held constant. Moreover, experiences of homophobia were greater than experiences of racism among the men in this study. The gay-identified MSM had more conversations about sensitive issues within intimate relationships than the non-gay-identified MSM (.i.e., bisexuals). On the other hand, the non-gay-identified men reported experiencing more internalized homophobia than the gay-identified men. Men of unknown HIV status were less likely to use condoms when compared with men of HIV negative status. Further, more than one-third of the men reported having had sex under the age of 16 with someone at least 5 years older and more than one-third of those men reported that the sex was nonconsensual. The primary limitation of this study was recruiting subjects, especially recruiting those subjects who identified as heterosexual or bisexual MSM.
