 In summary, African Americans have been disproportionately affected by the HIV epidemic. The prevalence of HIV infection among African American MSM is alarmingly high, paralleling rates observed in some countries in sub-Saharan Africa. For condoms to prevent the transmission of HIVAIDS, they must be used correctly and consistently. Behavioral interventions have been found to be effective in reducing rates of sexual risk behaviors, but few have been conducted with African American MSM. This research seeks to answer the call for culturally appropriate interventions for high-risk subgroups of MSM. The primary hypothesis is that the BRO HIV Risk Reduction Intervention will increase the consistent use of condoms and decrease other sexual risk behaviors compared with the control group and that the interventions effects on condom use with be mediated by variables from the social cognitive theory and the reasoned action approach.
