Binge Drinking Moderates Unprotected Sex Among HIV Sero-Similar Same Sex Male Couples: An Actor-Partner Interdependence Model.
AIDS and Behavior 2022 November 29
Most new HIV diagnoses in the US occur among sexual minority men (SMM). The majority (69%) of new HIV diagnoses among US SMM are due to transmission from main sex partners. We identified multilevel correlates of unprotected anal intercourse (UAI; condomless anal intercourse while not using a biomedical strategy) among SMM couples using the Actor Partner Interdependence Model (APIM). Participants were US SMM over 18 years, with a primary male partner > 6 months. Couples were recruited online from April 2016 until June 2017 and interviewed using self-administered computer-assisted surveys. We used a series of APIM regressions to assess multilevel associations with UAI. We also tested the moderating role of an individual's binge drinking on the relationship between HIV status similarity and UAI. Among 798 participants (n = 411 couples), 61% reported UAI in the past 6 months. Binge drinking (52%) and physical intimate partner violence (IPV; 34%) were considerably high within our sample. Actor's binge drinking, reporting experiencing and/or perpetrating physical IPV, and partner's trust were positively associated with UAI. Actor having other sexual partner(s), using illegal drugs (not marijuana), and length of relationship were negatively associated with UAI. Binge drinking positively moderated UAI among HIV serostatus similar partners. HIV prevention programming should integrate components on IPV and binge drinking reduction- especially among HIV serostatus similar couples.
