HIV/AIDS Clinical Trial
Official title:
A Mobile Phone Game to Prevent HIV Among Young Africans
This project will test the feasibility of an electronic game to prevent HIV among African preadolescents, delivered via inexpensive Android smart phones. In order to collect feasibility data for a future randomized controlled trial, this study involves the pilot-testing of the intervention with a sample of young people in Nyanza region, Kenya, where 11.4% of young women ages 15-24 are HIV-infected. This feasibility study will be carried out with the Kenya Medical Research Institute (KEMRI).
This project will test the feasibility of an electronic game for preadolescents, delivered
via inexpensive Android smart phones. The game is informed by socio-behavioral and
pedagogical theories, evidence-based practice, and formative research on youth sexual culture
in sub-Saharan Africa. It is designed to: educate young players, ages 11-14, about sexual
health and HIV/AIDS; build risk-reduction skills and related self-efficacy for prevention of
HIV, sexually transmitted infections (STIs), and unintended pregnancy; challenge harmful
gender norms and HIV stigma; and foster dialogue with parents and caregivers.
The proposed feasibility test will be conducted in Western Kenya. Sixty preadolescents will
be enrolled in the trial, 30 in the study arm and 30 in the control arm. The Kenya Medical
Research Institute (KEMRI) has established community advisory boards (CABs) in Kisumu, which
will be available to the proposed study.
Data collection will take place at KEMRI offices, health clinics, or in the meeting room of a
local community-based organization (CBO). In addition, data on game-play will be
automatically collected on mobile phones given to preadolescent study participants.
