Brief Summary:
This study will develop and evaluate the effectiveness of tailored web-based messages in promoting condom use among young adults
Detailed Description:
Adolescents and young adults are at the greatest risk for acquiring a sexually transmitted disease STD Approximately 3 million people between the ages of 18 and 24 become infected with an STD each year Education about the risks and consequences of unprotected sex is a powerful tool that can be used to prevent or reduce the risk of infection The program in this study will deliver messages to educate participants about condom use and the risk of STD infection The study will evaluate the effectiveness of a tailored interactive online risk reduction program versus a standard online risk reduction program in reducing the risk of STD infection in young adults
Participants in this open-label study will be recruited from one of two clinics in the Denver Colorado area Denver Metropolitan Health Clinic or Planned Parenthood of the Rocky Mountains Participants will be randomly assigned to receive internet-based messages from either the Youthnet program or the control program while filling out a risk assessment survey Participants in the Youthnet program will be asked their gender and ethnicity so they may be assigned to a role model of the same gender and ethnicity via a computer program This role model will appear online 5 times during the survey to deliver interactive messages that will be tailored to HIVSTD risk reduction and will specifically address attitudes about condom usage The control program will deliver 5 general non-tailored messages containing information on reproductive health not specific to condoms or STDs Participants will be assessed at baseline and a follow-up session 3 months after enrollment Frequency of condom use and attitudes toward condom use will be assessed using behavioral scales
