Checking In (The Sex Study for Men)
Checking In (The Sex Study for Men) was a 12-month study of HIV behavioral risks. The study aimed to demonstrate the possibility of using emerging targeting methods to efficiently enroll black and Hispanic men who have sex with men (MSM) into online prevention studies, describe and evaluate retention incentives and strategies for collecting behavioral data through SMS (or text messaging), and demonstrate the operations, feasibility, and acceptability of collecting biological specimens.
