IMB-guided Intervention to Encourage PrEP Uptake Among Young Men Who Have Sex With Men

Intervention content will be focused on the Information-Motivation-Behavioral Skills (IMB) model. We plan to incorporate previously developed content as much as possible and will include professionally produced videos about HIV testing and PrEP and other resources. We believe our approach of guiding YMSM through intervention modules based on theory will help improve content retention/use and ultimately influence constructs posited to result in behavior change. We foresee using multiple forms of attention-matched material, media, and programming to engage (and retain engagement) of YMSM throughout the brief single-session intervention (45-60 minutes).
