HIV/AIDS and HIV Testing Informational Video Hello! Thank you for taking the time to look at our research study. The purpose of the study is to find out how well a video we created helps people learn more about HIV/AIDS and HIV testing. This study is being conducted by researchers at Rhode Island Hospital and Brown University. First, we will ask you a few questions to see if you can be in the study. We will ask if you ever have been tested for HIV and if you ever have had a positive HIV test. We are interested in what people who do not have an HIV infection know about HIV testing. For this reason, you can be a part of this study if you have never had a positive HIV test. For this study, we will ask you a few questions about yourself and how comfortable you are with reading and understanding health information. Next, we will ask you to answer a short quiz about what you know about HIV/AIDS and HIV testing. Afterwards, you will watch a short video, and then answer the same short quiz to see what you learned from the video. The entire study will take about 25-30 minutes. If you leave in the middle of the study, you will be able to return to where you left off if you continue on the same computer or electronic device. If you complete the study, you have the option to enter a lottery for one of several $50 gift cards from Amazon. Because we are interested in how well the video helps people learn more about HIV/AIDS and HIV testing, you can only enter the study once. You can encourage your friends to enter the study! For this study, you do not have to tell us your name. At the end of the study, if you want to enter the lottery for the Amazon gift card, we will ask for your email address. If you do not want to be in the lottery, then you do not have to give us your email address. You do not have to give us your email address to be a part of the study. Answering these questions and being in this study is voluntary. You can quit at any time. We do not anticipate any discomforts or risks for being in the study. There are also no benefits to you for being in the study. However, we expect that your participation will help us to understand the usefulness of our video. If you have any questions or concerns about this research study, please feel free to contact Dr. Roland Merchant at (401) 444-5109. If you have any questions about your rights as a research subject please contact the Lifespan Office of Research Administration Manager, Patricia E. Houser at +1 (401) 444-6246.
