Official title
Supporting Health Behavior Among Persons Living With HIV Using Technology, the Multiphase Optimization Strategy (MOST), and Principles of Behavioral Economics
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The present study focuses on adult persons living with HIV in the New York City and Newark, New Jersey metropolitan areas who are not highly adherent to HIV medication and who do not evidence undetectable HIV viral load (the ultimate goal of HIV treatment). Those who have not decided whether they wish to take HIV medications are invited to enroll. The study uses technology, is grounded in principles of behavioral economics, and uses the multiphase optimization strategy (MOST) to examine the acceptability, feasibility, and evidence of efficacy of three intervention components. The components are intended to increase rates of HIV viral suppression in the sample. The three components are: prizes for viral suppression (fixed compensation \[$275\] or lottery prizes \[up to $500\]), text messages and quiz questions that generate points to earn prizes (to foster engagement), and counseling sessions grounded in the motivational interviewing approach to help participants articulate goals with respect to health and viral suppression, identify and resolve barriers to HIV medication use, and build motivation for viral suppression. Participants are assessed at baseline and then 5- and 8-months later.
