Description

Background:
This is a slightly modified version of the baseline assessment for the NIMH Multisite HIV Prevention Trial (Fishbein & Coutinho, 1997). The baseline assessment includes information on socio-demographic characteristics, acculturation, health and mental health status, STD history and symptoms, alcohol and drug use, sexual behavior in the past 90 days, and exposure to unwanted/uninvited sexual activity. For the assessment itself, see the NIMH Multisite Prevention Trial Protocol (1995). Only the items concerning sexual behavior in the past 90 days are presented below (Section D of the Baseline Assessment).
