Abstract
Disrupted self-regulation can increase youths' risk for substance use and HIV acquisition. Latent profile analysis (LPA) was used to explore profiles among 124 youth ages 11-13 who had impulse control disorders. LPA was based on self-regulation factors and three HIV/AIDS-specific domains: AIDS-related knowledge; perceived severity of AIDS; and worry about HIV. LPA identified four profiles: 1) low knowledge/low regulation; 2) low perceived severity/high regulation; 3) high knowledge/low regulation; and 4) moderate knowledge/moderate regulation. Youth with the highest HIV/AIDS knowledge showed the highest impulsivity, emotion dysregulation, and violence exposure. Youth may benefit from tailored prevention based on HIV-related knowledge/beliefs and self-regulation.
