Proposed Project Formative Research to Inform the Routine HIV Testing for gynecologists providing primary care services and Prevention Is Care (PIC) Social Marketing Campaigns—New—National Center for HIV/AIDS, Viral Hepatitis, STD, and TB Prevention (NCHHSTP)[Proposed], Coordinating Center for Infectious Diseases (CCID), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Background and Brief Description This project involves formative research to inform the development of two Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)-sponsored social marketing campaigns: Social Marketing Campaign to Make HIV Testing a Routine Part of Medical Care for Gynecologists Providing Primary Care Services (Routine HIV Testing), and Prevention Is Care (PIC). The goal of the Routine HIV Testing Campaign is to increase HIV testing rates among women seeking gynecological primary care services and the objective of the campaign is to make HIV testing a routine part of primary care provided by obstetrician/gynecologists (OB/GYN). PIC entails encouraging primary care physicians (PCP) and Infectious Disease Specialists who deliver care to patients living with HIV and screen them for HIV transmission behaviors and deliver brief Number of respondents Respondents messages on the importance of protecting themselves and others by reducing their risky behaviors. The long-term objective of the campaign is to establish PIC as the standard of care for persons living with HIV. The study entails conducting focus groups and interviews to test creative materials with a sample of Obstetrician/Gynecologists (OB/GYN) for Routine HIV Testing and with PCP and Infectious Disease Specialists for PIC. Findings from this study will be used by CDC and its partners to inform current and future program activities. For Routine HIV Testing, we expect a total of 81 physicians to be screened for eligibility. Of the 81 physicians who are screened, we expect that 27 will participate in a focus group and 27 will participate in an interview. For PIC, we expect a total of 162 physicians to be screened for eligibility. Of the 162 physicians who are screened, we expect that 54 will participate in a focus group and 54 will participate in an interview. There are no costs to the respondents other than their time.

of the HIV Testing Social Marketing Campaign for African American 
Heterosexual Men, a CDC-sponsored social marketing campaign aimed at 
increasing HIV testing rates among

young, single, African American men. The study entails conducting focus 
groups and interviews with a sample of single African American 
heterosexual men, ages 18 to 45, with less than 4 years of college 
education to: (1) Explore participants' knowledge, attitudes and 
beliefs about HIV and HIV testing to inform the development of campaign 
messages; (2) identify the most motivating approach, supporting data, 
and key messages for materials development; (3) test creative concepts, 
potential campaign themes, logos and names; and (4) test creative 
materials developed based on the findings from the previous phases of 
the research. Findings from this study will be used by CDC and its 
partners to inform current and future program activities.
    We expect a total of 306 participants to be screened for 
eligibility. Of the 306 participants who are screened, we expect that 
81 people will participate in a focus group and 72 people will 
participate in an interview. There are no costs to the respondents 
other than their time.
