DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): NOT-OD-10-034: NIH Announces the Availability of Recovery Act Funds for Competitive Revision Applications for Small Business Innovation Research and Small Business Transfer Technology Research Grants through the NIH Basic Behavioral and Social Science Opportunity Network (OppNet). Abstract: HIV infection is on the rise among older women in the U.S. There is an urgent need for culturally-sensitive, gender-specific, and age-appropriate HIV prevention interventions for older women, particularly minority older women who are most at-risk - a need that is disturbingly unmet. The need to overcome stigma and privacy barriers to HIV/AIDS/STD education in this group, combined with the explosive growth in the number of wired seniors, including minority seniors, makes an e-intervention an ideal delivery method for addressing this problem, and for addressing ethnic disparities in HIV infection rates among older women. Our overall goal in the Phase 1 parent grant is to develop a comprehensive (educational and behavioral), tailored, accessible, and innovative HIV/AIDs and STD prevention e- intervention for culturally-diverse older women age 50 and over. Based on Phase 1 focus group findings, we now propose revising the site as conceived of in the parent grant to include 3 brief videos of an older woman discussing how she successfully negotiated a safe sex challenge. Recent CDC research shows brief videos can positively impact STD prevention, especially among older adults. Specific Phase 1 Aims from the parent grant are:1) Develop a prototype website for a risk reduction e- intervention for culturally-diverse older women, incorporating a peer chatroom and ask the expert segment; 2) Collect pilot data to develop an individually tailored online coaching component to be incorporated into the Phase 2 site; 3) Evaluate the feasibility, acceptability, and immediate effectiveness of the Phase 1 site for increasing knowledge and perceived risks; and, 4) Prepare for the Phase 2 application with respect to functional expansion, evaluation, and commercialization of the website. In this revision, Specific Aim #1 from the parent grant will be expanded as follows: 1) Develop a prototype website for a risk reduction e-intervention for culturally-diverse older women, incorporating peer chatroom, ask the expert, and brief video segments. Specific Aims for the proposed revision are: 1) Research, film, and edit 3 brief videos of an older woman (including minority) discussing how she successfully negotiated a real-life safe sex challenge 2) Evaluate feasibility & effectiveness of the website including 3 brief videos at increasing user safe sex self efficacy and HIV knowledge 3) Prepare for Phase 2 re: inclusion, refinement, and expansion of brief videos. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: HIV infection rates are rising among older women, particularly African American women, creating a public health imperative for culturally-sensitive and gender-specific HIV/STD prevention interventions for older women. In Phase 1 of the parent grant, we are developing the first comprehensive (educational and behavioral), tailored, accessible, and innovative STD/HIV prevention e-intervention for culturally-diverse older women. In the proposed revision, we aim to create and test a brief video component for the website, which is based on our focus group findings, and supported by CDC research. We expect the added component will enhance the impact of the site on older women's safe sex self-efficacy and HIV knowledge, as well as contribute to consumer appeal.

描述（申请人提供）：NOT-OD-10-034：NIH宣布通过NIH基本行为和社会科学机会网络（ oppnet）。摘要：美国老年妇女的艾滋病毒感染正在增长，迫切需要对年龄较大的妇女，尤其是少数妇女，尤其是最危险的老年妇女（尤其是最危险的妇女），迫切需要对文化敏感，特定性别和适合年龄的艾滋病毒预防措施。需要令人不安的需求。在该小组中克服对艾滋病毒/艾滋病/性病教育的污名和隐私障碍的必要性，再加上包括少数族裔老年人在内的有线老年人人数的爆炸性增长，使电子干预成为解决这一问题的理想交付方法，并解决老年妇女艾滋病毒感染率的种族差异。我们在第一阶段父母赠款中的总体目标是为50岁及以上的文化多元化妇女提供全面的（教育和行为），量身定制，可访问和创新的HIV/AIDS和STD预防E-Destd Ewestention。基于第1阶段的焦点小组调查结果，我们现在建议修改该网站，以包括父母赠款中的3个简短视频，其中包括一位老年妇女，讨论她如何成功地谈判安全的性挑战。 CDC的最新研究表明，简短的视频可以积极影响性病预防，尤其是在老年人中。父母赠款的特定阶段目标是：1）开发一个原型网站，以降低文化多元化妇女的风险降低，并纳入同行聊天室并询问专家细分市场； 2）收集飞行员数据，以开发单独量身定制的在线教练组件，以纳入第二阶段的网站； 3）评估第一阶段站点对增加知识和感知风险的可行性，可接受性和直接有效性；以及4）为第2阶段的应用程序做准备，以实现网站的功能扩展，评估和商业化。在此修订中，父母赠款的特定目标＃1将被扩展如下：1）开发一个原型网站，以降低风险降低文化多样性的老年妇女，并纳入同行聊天室，询问专家，并进行简短的视频片段。拟议的修订的具体目的是：1）研究，电影和编辑3个老年妇女（包括少数族裔）的简短视频，讨论她如何成功谈判现实生活中的安全性挑战2）评估网站的可行性和有效性，包括3用户安全性自我效能和艾滋病毒知识增加的简短视频3）准备第2阶段：包含，简化和扩展简短视频。 公共卫生相关性：老年妇女，尤其是非洲裔美国妇女的艾滋病毒感染率正在上升，这对老年妇女的文化敏感和特定性别的艾滋病毒/性病预防措施创造了公共卫生。在父母赠款的第一阶段中，我们正在为文化多样性的老年妇女开发第一个全面的（教育和行为），量身定制，可访问和创新的性病/艾滋病毒预防。在拟议的修订中，我们旨在为网站创建和测试一个简短的视频组件，该网站基于我们的焦点小组发现，并得到CDC研究的支持。我们希望增加的组成部分将增强该网站对老年妇女安全的性别自我效能感和艾滋病毒知识的影响，并有助于消费者的吸引力。
