| Summary: | OBJECTIVES: To determine if populations at high risk are receptive to tailored, multimedia interventions as a means of promoting adoption of health-protective behaviors related to STD prevention and control. METHODS: Study participants (N = 41) were exposed to the tailored, multimedia intervention and asked for feedback. RESULTS: Participants were able to interact independently with the intervention. A majority found it engaging and indicated that their interaction with the intervention would change their future behavior. CONCLUSION: An urban, primarily African American sample of STD clinic patients was receptive to this tailored, multimedia intervention. |
