METHODS: A sample of 150 HIV+ and HIV- Zambian women was recruited from the University Teaching Hospital HIV Voluntary Counseling and Testing Centre, randomized into one of three conditions, and assessed at baseline and 6 months. Group and individual intervention participants attended a 3-session intervention plus pre- and post-HIV test counseling; control participants received pre- and post-test counseling only. RESULTS: Group intervention participants increased use of sexual barriers and had higher levels of acceptability than did individual intervention participants. HIV- group participants increased use of chemical barriers and female condoms. CONCLUSIONS: Results support the use of group interventions to increase sexual barrier use and acceptability and decrease sexual risk behavior in both HIV+ and HIV- women.</p>","PeriodicalId":89286,"journal":{"name":"The journal of multicultural nursing & health : official journal of the Center for the Study of Multiculturalism and Health Care, Inc","volume":"10 1","pages":"24-31"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2004-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3034147/pdf/nihms7960.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"29658138","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
