Project Description

Alcohol Policies & Sexual Risk in HIV Positive Adults

Category: Modeling & Forecasting

Sponsor: NIAAA

PI: Rebecca Collins

Start Date: September 2005

End Date: June 2009

This project is collecting data on state and local alcohol policies and linking it to survey data describing the sexual risk behavior of a national probability sample of people living with HIV (drawn from the HCSUS sample). The goal is to test whether alcohol policies influence the likelihood of HIV-transmission from an infected to an uninfected individual by affecting the probability of unprotected anal, vaginal, or oral sex.
