This is a revised proposal for the Psychosocial Core of the HIV Center. Sexual behavior is of central importance in psychosocial research on HIV and AIDS. Since HIV/AIDS is primarily a sexually transmitted disease, sexual risk behavior is the target of most primary and secondary prevention efforts and related research. In addition, research on behavior is the target of most primary and secondary prevention efforts and related research. In addition, research on the quality of life in persons with HIV/AIDS includes sexual functioning as an important issue, because it may be impaired by HIV disease. Various aspects of sexual behavior, its determinants, nd its modification will, therefore, be the focus of both assessment and intervention protocols in the majority of projects within the proposed HIV Center. To meet these needs, the Psychosexual Core has developed a variety of project-tailored sexual risk behavior assessment schedules (SERBAS) and will continue to assist the projects of HIV Center III in the development and modification of individually-tailored SERBAS schedules. Because of the topic's sensitive nature, the assessment of sexual behavior poses a special challenge for interviewers. To improve interviewer performance, and thereby facilitate interviewee self- disclosure and enhance data quality, the Core has developed systematic manualized training procedures for sexual interviewing. The Core will utilize these procedures to train and monitor staff who conduct interviews on sexual behavior ("sex interviewers") throughout the Center. We propose to complement these training procedures by developing training videos, which will also permit easier dissemination of our interviewing nd training procedures. In addition, the Core will conduct sex-assessment workshops that will be open to investigators both inside and outside the Center. To improve efficiency and selection of suitable staff, the Core will develop systematic methods for sex-interviewer selection. Another responsibility of the Core is the analysis of certain sexual-behavior data sets. Because sexual data from complex, behaviorally-oriented interviews pose special analytic problems, the Core will also provide sexual-data- specific consultations on data processing and analysis, which will complement the more broad-band consultations of the SED Core. Finally, the Psychosexual Core serves as an information resource on sex research for the HIV Center, and also participates in the development of new projects. In this context, the Core will provide a sexological forum for Center investigators and others, in the form of regular meetings such as the Psychosexual Conference and the Fellows's Sexuality Seminar, and as a series of special HIV/AIDS-related sexological Lecture/Workshop events.

这是针对艾滋病毒中心心理社会核心的修订提案。 性行为在艾滋病毒心理社会研究中至关重要 和艾滋病。由于艾滋病毒/艾滋病主要是一种性传播疾病， 性危险行为是大多数主要和次要的目标 预防工作和相关研究。此外，对行为的研究 是大多数一级和二级预防工作及相关的目标 研究。此外，针对患有此病的人的生活质量进行了研究。 艾滋病毒/艾滋病将性功能列为一个重要问题，因为它可能 受到艾滋病毒疾病的损害。性行为的各个方面，其 决定因素及其修改因此将成为双方的重点 大多数项目的评估和干预协议 拟议的艾滋病毒中心。为了满足这些需求，性心理核心有 开发了多种项目定制的性危险行为评估 时间表（SERBAS）并将继续协助艾滋病中心的项目 III 个性化定制的 SERBAS 的开发和修改 时间表。由于该话题的敏感性，评估 性行为给采访者带来了特殊的挑战。改善 访谈者的表现，从而促进受访者自我评价 披露和提高数据质量，核心开发了系统的 性访谈的手动培训程序。核心将 利用这些程序来培训和监督进行访谈的工作人员 整个中心的性行为（“性访谈员”）。我们建议 通过开发培训视频来补充这些培训程序， 这也将使我们的采访和传播更容易 培训程序。此外，核心将进行性别评估 研讨会将对国内外的调查人员开放 中心。为了提高效率并选择合适的员工，核心 将开发系统的性采访者选择方法。其他 核心的职责是分析某些性行为数据 套。因为性数据来自复杂的、以行为为导向的访谈 提出特殊的分析问题，核心还将提供性数据- 就数据处理和分析进行具体磋商， 补充 SED 核心的更广泛的磋商。最后， 性心理核心是性研究的信息资源 艾滋病毒中心，还参与新项目的开发。 在此背景下，核心将为中心提供一个性学论坛 调查员和其他人员，以定期会议的形式，例如 性心理会议和研究员性研讨会，并作为 系列特别的艾滋病毒/艾滋病相关性学讲座/研讨会活动。
