Abstract

Dating apps are a novel means of delivering HIV prevention messages. Young black sexual minority men (YBSMM) app users are at high risk for HIV and could benefit from frequent testing. Understanding testing behaviors among YBSMM is critical to inform tailored prevention interventions. We analyzed testing behaviors of 273 YBSMM, comparing typical testing frequency between app users and non-users using odds ratios. Overall, testing rates were high. App users were more likely than non-users to test at least every 12 months. App-using YBSMM exhibit high compliance with testing guidelines, which may indicate future successful uptake of biomedical preventions, such as Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis.

年轻黑人性少数群体男性在网上寻找性伴侣和进行 HIV 检测的频率。
约会应用程序是传递艾滋病预防信息的一种新手段。年轻的黑人性少数群体男性 (YBSMM) 应用程序用户是 HIV 的高危人群,可以从频繁的检测中获益。了解 YBSMM 的检测行为对于提供有针对性的预防干预措施至关重要。我们分析了 273 名 YBSMM 的检测行为,使用几率比对应用程序用户和非用户的典型检测频率进行了比较。总体而言,检测率很高。应用程序用户比非用户更有可能至少每 12 个月进行一次检测。使用应用程序的 YBSMM 对检测指南的依从性很高,这可能预示着未来会成功采用生物医学预防措施,如暴露前预防。
