To triangulate with the quantitative data, deductive qualitative analysis concentrated on women's knowledge and awareness of PrEP and HIV, their relationship dynamics and challenges, and their considerations (e.g., barriers, facilitators) related to taking PrEP; inductive analysis focused on women's experiences in the intervention.</p></div><div><h3>Results</h3><p>Participants in the WP3+ intervention reported: improved proportion of condom use in the past 90 days (<em>p</em> &lt; .01) and in a typical week (<em>p</em> &lt; .05); reduced PTS symptoms (<em>p</em> &lt; .05); increased HIV knowledge (<em>p</em> &lt; .0001) and awareness of PrEP (<em>p</em> &lt; .001); and greater consideration of using PrEP (<em>p</em> &lt; .001). In interviews, participants expressed not only increased knowledge but also appreciation for learning how to protect themselves against HIV, communicate with their partners, and take charge of their health, and they expressed greater receptiveness to using PrEP as a result of the knowledge and skills they gained.</p></div><div><h3>Conclusions</h3><p>The WP3+ pilot study demonstrated preliminary efficacy and acceptability as an HIV-prevention program for African American women. A controlled trial is needed to confirm its efficacy for increasing PrEP use among African American women.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":48039,"journal":{"name":"Womens Health Issues","volume":"34 3","pages":"Pages 241-249"},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2024-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139547416","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
