Scientific title | Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-sexually transmitted infections (STI) risk reduction program among undergraduate students at a Northern Nigerian University: a randomised controlled field trial |
Study acronym | IHSRIPY |
Study objectives | 1. The intervention group will show greater increase in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-related and sexually transmitted infection (STI) knowledge immediately post-intervention and during follow up assessments than the control group 2. The intervention group will report greater reduction in HIV-related and STI related risk behaviours at follow up assessments than the control group 3. The intervention group will exhibit higher increase in positive attitude scores towards HIV and STI prevention immediately post-intervention and during follow up assessments than the control group 4. The intervention group will show higher increase in positive HIV-related stigma score immediately post-intervention and during follow up assessments than the control group |
Ethics approval(s) | 1. Malaysia: Human Research Ethics Committee, Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences, Universiti Putra Malaysia, approved on 6th June 2008 2. Nigeria: Human Research Ethics Committee, Ahmadu Bello University Zaria approved on 14th July 2008 |
Health condition(s) or problem(s) studied | Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS), sexually transmitted infections (STI) |
Intervention | A randomised controlled field trial design to investigate the impact of an HIV-STI intervention program on participants' HIV- and STI-related knowledge, sexual risk behaviours, attitudes towards HIV and STI prevention, and disentanglement of stigma. Participants were randomised to either the intervention group or the control group. An 8-hour integrated HIV-STI prevention program comprising of four structured modules was developed and delivered to the intervention group, while the control group received another 8-hour program on career development. Two-way repeated measure ANOVA was applied to assess the effectiveness of the intervention. The outcome measures were assessed at baseline, immediately post-intervention, at 3 months and 6 months post-intervention for both arms.
