Trial Outcomes & Findings for Podcasting HIV Prevention Within African American Communities (NCT NCT05365958)

Last Updated: 2025-10-06

Results Overview

A change between baseline and 1 month regarding condom use self-efficacy scale scores. Results reflect mean difference and mean standard deviation in a repeated measures t-test analysis. The 5-item subscale scores were summed and averaged across participants, yielding an average scale score range of 1-5; higher scale values indicating greater self-efficacy to use condoms. Scale scores were assessed for participants immediately before the intervention and 1 month after the intervention. The method used was repeated measures t-test. The analysis reports the group average scale score and standard deviation for participants at 1 month followup.

Measure	African American Heterosexuals n=128 Participants Group participated in the pretest, intervention, \& posttest/follow-up. (Single arm study)
Change in Condom Use Self-Efficacy (From Baseline to 1 Month Follow-up)	4.4 score on a scale Standard Deviation .6

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: To be measured 1 month after film viewing

Uses the condom use intention item (average) of the measure. "I plan to use condoms the next time I have sex." Item was scaled from 1-strongly disagree to 5-strongly agree. Higher scale scores indicate greater intention to use a condom during intercourse; Lower scale scores indicate lesser intention to use a condom during intercourse.The item was summed across participants, separately for baseline and 1 month followup to yield a pretest group mean average (baseline) and a 1 month followup group mean average. The method used was repeated measures t-test, which tested group mean differences between baseline (pretest average) and 1 month followup average. The analysis reports the group average scale score and standard deviation for participants at 1 month followup.

Measure	African American Heterosexuals n=128 Participants Group participated in the pretest, intervention, \& posttest/follow-up. (Single arm study)
Condom Use Intention Item (1 Month Followup)	4.1 score on a scale Standard Deviation 1.1

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 1 month after film viewing

Uses a single item "I intend to obtain an HIV test within the next 2 months?" Item was scaled from 1-strongly disagree to 5-strongly agree. Higher scale scores indicate greater intention to acquire an HIV test; Lower scale scores indicate less intention to acquire an HIV test.The item scores were summed across participants, separately for baseline and 1 month followup to yield a pretest group mean average (baseline) and a 1 month followup group mean average. The method used was repeated measures t-test, which tested group mean differences between baseline (pretest average) and 1 month followup average. The analysis reports the group average scale score and standard deviation for participants at 1 month followup.

HIV Test Intentions (Single Item)	4.3 score on a scale Standard Deviation .6

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: To be measured 1 month after film viewing

To observe whether the film viewing influenced behavior of obtaining a HIV test at 1 month followup. Outcome was measured with a single item: "Have you obtained an HIV test (-you will not be required to disclose the results of this test)?" Item was scaled on a nominal scale of measurement as (0) No, (1) Maybe, and (2) Yes. A count of "Yes" (converted to percentage) was used as the primary outcome.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: To be measured 3 months after film viewing

To observe whether the film viewing influenced behavior of obtaining a HIV test at 3 month followup. Outcome was measured with a single item: "Have you obtained an HIV test (-you will not be required to disclose the results of this test)?" Item was scaled on a nominal scale of measurement as (0) No, (1) Maybe, and (2) Yes. A count of "Yes" (converted to percentage) was used as the primary outcome.
