CDC launched Act Against AIDS (AAA) in 2009 as a 5-year, multifaceted communication campaign to reduce HIV incidence in the US. The purpose is to evaluate the effectiveness of the AAA campaign messages on desired outcomes, and to determine mediating & moderating effects of participant characteristics on HIV-related outcomes. Changes to be examined include: attitudes, beliefs, & knowledge about HIV; receptivity to AAA campaign messages; perceived credibility; perceived risks of HIV & importance of HIV prevention & testing; intentions related to HIV prevention & testing; and HIV-related behaviors. Surveys will be used to evaluate the effectiveness of AAA campaign messages during the campaign development phase and to examine the associations between those groups who report exposure & those reporting no exposure to various AAA messages. Participants will self-administer.
Sample size was adjusted to account for completed surveys and burden needed to complete the total sample. Numbers previously entered in ROCIS were not tripled to allow for three years of clearance; the large increase in burden is due to rectifying this error. Annual burden has decreased but total for three years indicates an increase.
