HIV
Prevention Research
HIV Prevention Research assimilates the
work of a team of social scientists and
educators in the development of preventive
interventions for adolescent high risk populations.
Target populations include young women who
live in urban housing developments, young
men in detention facilities and in MSM youth
groups, and high school students in the
United States, South Africa, and Ethiopia.
The behavior change model that this group
uses is based on work coming from the Theory
of Reasoned Action, the Health Behavior
Model, Social Cognitive Theory, and Diffusion
Theory. For more information, please contact
us at 859/257-8133.
