Filter by:The goal of this stepped-wedge cluster randomized control trial is to assess whether a Ugandan community-based intervention for young fathers (ages 18-25 years) of children ages 0-3 years impacts fathers' knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors surrounding positive parenting practices, father-child interaction, harsh physical punishment of children, and intimate partner violence.
The purpose of this clinical trial is to evaluate and test a newly developed gender-affirming intervention that addresses the dual and interconnected risks of HIV and intimate partner victimization (IPV) among transgender women (TW). The main questions it aims to answer are: (1) will the study intervention reduce HIV risk within the context of IPV and related risk factors (e.g., substance use and PTSD); (2) will STARS improve primary prevention behaviors, such as condom use, pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) use, and repeat HIV testing; and (3) what are the mechanisms of change relevant to the theoretical foundations of the intervention, including gender affirmation, empowerment, and self-efficacy. The findings from this study will provide the necessary groundwork to examine the efficacy of this combined HIV-IPV intervention in a future, large-scale clinical trial. There are several components to this research study: - First, participants will be asked to complete a series of screening interviews/questionnaires to determine eligibility, including completing a HIV test. - If eligible, participants will then take part in a 2-3 hour baseline assessment consisting of both interviewer administered questionnaires as well as self-administered surveys. - Participants will then be randomly assigned to one of two treatment conditions: (1) a newly developed gender affirming intervention, known as Program STARS (Supporting Trans Affirmation, relationships, and Sex) or (2) a time-matched, attention-controlled program that offers free training in relaxation and stress reduction techniques (a.k.a., the comparison group). Both interventions offer unique components and the researchers do not yet know the impact the programs may have on participants' overall well-being. - Participants randomized to Project STARS, will be invited to complete a semi-structured exit interview (lasting 60-90 min.) after the completion of the program. - This clinical trial has three follow-up assessments: (1) post-intervention (i.e., after the peer-counseling programs are complete); (2) at 4-months follow-up; and (3) at 6-months follow-up. The follow-up assessments are structured the same way as the baseline assessment and are estimated to take around 1-2 hours. The total study involvement for this clinical trial is estimated to take approximately 10 to 12 hours over the course of six months.
The objective of this study is to examine the impact of the "Doing What Matters in Times of Stress" guided self-help handbook, along with phone-based lay helpers sessions, on the psychological well-being, business performance, and incidence of intimate partner violence among women entrepreneurs in Ethiopia.
This cluster-randomized community-partnered study will examine the effectiveness of a racial-, gender-, and economic-justice focused youth violence prevention program called Forging Hopeful Futures with youth ages 13-19.
This study is designed to develop and test an individual decision aid for pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) tailored to Black women who have been exposed to intimate partner violence and are working with a domestic violence service provider. three different ways of delivering the tailored decision aid are being tested: 1) as an individual tool; or 2) as a shared decision-making tool with a domestic violence advocate; as compared to generalized information. The goal of decision aid will be to address key cultural and structural factors affecting these women and can help them gain PrEP awareness and access.
This effectiveness-implementation hybrid-3 study evaluates dissemination, implementation, and effectiveness of myPlanKenya. myPlanKenya will be disseminated through formal and informal sectors. This clinical trial portion of the study enrolls women at risk for intimate partner violence (IPV) who are referred to myPlanKenya by disseminators (i.e. "end-users"). This trial aims to evaluate the effectiveness of myPlanKenya referral on resilience, health and safety among a cohort of women referred to myPlanKenya based on disclosure of IPV or assessed to have IPV related risks.
Intimate partner abuse is very common among university students. Post-traumatic stress disorder is one of the most serious mental diseases caused by intimate partner abuse.The purpose of this study was to assess the impact of an internet-based psychosocial intervention based on Social Learning Theory and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy approaches on post-traumatic stress and growth in student nurses who had experienced intimate partner abuse.
The investigators will assess the need and feasibility of randomising a sufficiently large number of women exposed to IPV during pregnancy in a full-scale future randomised trial. To achieve this, the investigators will: 1. estimate rates of consent to randomization, and the rates of adherence and dropout following randomization (for the use in sample size estimation) 2. determine recruitment duration 3. examine the women's perception about the benefit of the intervention 4. determine the reasons for acceptability, non-adherence, and obstacles to recruitment, randomisation and consent through qualitative interviews
This project is designed to develop and test a brief internet-delivered intervention to promote healthy relationships among young adults.
This study evaluates the impact of adaptive technology-based intervention (online, text and phone) "weWomenPlus" on safety, mental health and empowerment of abused immigrant women.
