TITLE: _ Focus Groups and Intercept Interviews for Message and Materials Pretesting __
GENERIC CLEARANCE UNDER OMB# _0925-0585-04___ EXP. DATE: _02/28/2011__
NIAID
funds HIV vaccine research. In an effort to develop support for HIV
vaccine research, NIAID created the NIAID HIV Vaccine Research
Education Initiative (NHVREI) to educate US populations most
affected by HIV/AIDS about HIV vaccine research. In 2006, NIAID
developed educational materials about HIV vaccine research; however,
major events in HIV vaccine research have since occurred, creating a
need to reexamine the messages and materials to ensure they remain
appropriate for the current environment. Based on the outcome of
pretesting with target audiences (OMB-cleared instruments: “In-Depth
Interviews for Message and Materials Pretesting” and “Focus
Groups for Message and Materials Pretesting”) NIAID developed
new educational materials for subsequent rounds of pretesting. This
pretesting will include a series of focus groups (FGs) and intercept
interviews (IIs) with individuals from four hard-to-reach or
minority populations (Black/African-American, Hispanic/Latino, men
from all racial/ethnic groups who have sex with men (MSM), and
transgender individuals (male-to-female only)) that represent those
US populations most affected by HIV/AIDS. The results of the FGs and
IIs will provide NIAID with guidance for improving its education
initiative that aims to increase awareness of and support for HIV
vaccine research.
