Abstract
In 2021, homosexual, bisexual, and various other guys that have intercourse with people (MSM) comprise more than half of most brand-new HIV diagnoses in the usa, making use of the main setting of illness becoming condomless anal intercourse (CAS). While reports report a connection between use of Internet-based social media websites and improved CAS, the research in the partnership between cellphone mobile phone programs (e.g., Grindr, Scruff, Jack’d) and CAS is a lot less developed. Today’s learn examines if the manner in which gay, bisexual, also MSM get a hold of intimate lovers forecasts a boost in probability of doing CAS in an urban, noncoastal U.S. area. Carrying out a secondary data review for the 2011 state HIV Behavioral monitoring research for Denver (letter = 546), the writers sang binary logistic regression analyses to assess the items that predict how MSM uncover intimate lovers, in addition to probability of participating in CAS.
