Aging Behavioral Psychology Public Health randomized controlled trial motivational interviewing HIV/AIDS risky sex older adults By 2014, 50% of all adults living with HIV will be at least 50 years old. This pilot randomized controlled trial compared two telephone-delivered motivational interviewing (MI) interventions to reduce risky sexual behavior in HIV-infected older adults compared to an externally valid control condition. Participants were 100 HIV-positive adults 45-plus years old who reported engaging in one or more occasions of unprotected anal and/or vaginal intercourse in the three months prior to study enrollment. Participants were randomly assigned to receive four sessions of telephone-delivered MI (n = 38), one session of telephone-delivered MI (n = 39), or no MI (n = 23) using weighted simple random assignment. Participants completed telephone-administered interviews to assess sexual behaviors at baseline, three months, and six months. Generalized estimating equations found that, relative to 4-session MI participants, controls reported approximately three times as many occasions of unprotected sex at 3- (OR = 3.24, 95% CI = 1.79-5.85) and 6-month (OR = 2.70, 95% CI = 1.45-5.00) follow-up, while 1-session MI participants reported four times as many unprotected sex acts as 4-session MI participants at 3- (OR = 3.98, 95% CI = 2.38-6.67) and 6-month (OR = 4.39, 95% CI = 2.56-7.46) follow-up. No differences in condom use were observed between 1-session MI and control participants. Brief telephone-delivered MI interventions may effectively reduce risky sexual behavior in HIV-positive older adults. Additional large-scale studies that evaluate these interventions appear warranted. 2011-10-03 English text Ohio University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=ohiou1312573034 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=ohiou1312573034 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
